You can't take amphetamines daily
The toxicity will fry your dopamine receptors and your brain will stop producing dopamine meanwhile the tolerance to it will grow.
But you could supplement it with magnesium, ALCAR and some some kind of glutamate to lower the toxic profile, there have been papers about this.

Fuck I misread the OP post, but still good info to share so whatever...
I've a feeling that mass prescription of adderall made the Americans think that amphetaminea are harmless

[Anonymous No.10426869]

>>10424344
Get a prescription for propranolol. 40 mg is an average dose. Prevents heart rate spikes and sweaty/shaky hands. The physical calmness that you feel will also result in mental calmness that results in the appearance of extremely confident relaxation. Combine this with well structured and rehearsed presentation, nicely designed slides and active eye contact with your audience and you will give a god tier presentation that will have professors approaching YOU to compliment your performance. I speak from experience.

mph does fuck all in my experience. Even adderall is overpriced, it's like a good coffee but for 20x the price.

Ehhh i wouldn't take it daily, but I know that it has a wayyy lower toxicity profile than amphetamine.
You should be fine though.
I sometimes take 4F-MPH which is like 3 times as potent and releases more serotonin compared to regular MPH

now you are mega retarded
doing a unstudied methamphetamine in the exact same family as amphetamine is legit retarded considering there is no binding profile and there is no metabolite analysis (could include meth or amphetamine btw). not to mention you have to deal with the benzo withdrawals from your phenibut if you ever want to stop
>supplement with glutamate
>lower toxic profile
you know nmda antagonist neurotoxicity is explicitly and solely from glutamate right?
and on top of all this you think amphetamines aren't harmless. what the fuck

It's a longer lasting almost noneuphoric amphetamine I've ever tried.
Its speculated that the ring fluorinated amphetamines don't fit the enzymes that produce the toxic metabolites.
There have been one guy who fucked up his heart by doing 2-FMA, but he did 50mg daily and that could have happened with normal dextromphetamine.
Also i use it only like twice a month in the 10-25mg range.
>benzo withdrawal
If you don't go beyond 500mg and don't use it more than 3 times a week the withdrawal isn't noticible

I take a small dose of a beta blocker for anything anxiety inducing.

[Anonymous No.10432212]

>>10432195
the problem with benzos is that they eliminate the actual anxiety instead of the side effects of it. anxiety is good, you learn from those emotions. theres catharsis in overcoming it. benzos essentially induce amnesia and stop new pathways.

thats why beta blockers are better.

wrong, the more sex you have -> the more testosterone you produce

Your sexual appetite might be reduced but that is not related to testosterone levels. You do not experience any behavioural differences as long as the testosterone level is within physiological boundaries (assuming the only variable at play is testosterone - whatever caused your testosterone to fluctuate could have also caused a change in behaviour).

[Anonymous No.10433900]

>>10433844
The sexual rise in testosterone after sex is not due ejaculation but the intercourse per se i.e. psychologically knowing you put your semen into a woman.

I took propranolol for presentations in high school English, I averaged a mark of 50%. For all other English assessments my average was 80%. So I don't believe it was content of my presentation that brought down my mark but rather the skill of my presentation. P.S. the political bais of the stuff may have of contributed to the low mark as all proposed topics where generally issues important to the political left. I recall one perticular piece of feedback where the assessor asked why I quoted the US deceleration of independence on the topic of freedom of religion in a secular society. P.P.S I am an Australian recent highschool graduate.

Not him, but think about it. If wages stagnated while productivity increased, where did the additional wealth produced go ? Into profits which benefited a small portion of the population.
This portion, that actually saw its real income increase, is stable, as indicated by pic related : it's the top 20%.

So from that the OP's picture cannot be used to disprove that wealth brings happiness : because despite the average income increase, the proportion of wealthy people didn't increase, and it is thus not surprising that the proportion of happy people didn't increase either.

[Anonymous No.10437077]

>>10437067

Hasn't what you're saying been shown to be at least partly fallacious? There are many reasons why median household income has stagnated, most of which are unrelated to only the small top portion of people getting richer.

I don't want to be dogmatic and maybe income of the 80% has increased more than shown.
But your article's objections are debatable.
>inflation is overstated, we should use this index instead of that one
That part I can't debate myself for lack of knowledge but it sounds like it could be.
>single-income households increased, lowering the average household income without lowering the average individual income
Ok but that leads to other issues : costs of living per capita for such households is higher, and income increases have been compensated (I don't know in which proportions) by expenses increases not counted in inflation indexes
>compensations increased more than income because of benefits increases
Ok but then the question becomes why has the rich's compensation gone into monetary income while it has gone into benefits for the rest ? And if you count paid insurances in income, did you adjust inflation to account for the rise of insurance prices ? I can't look it up right now, have to go somewhere.

Besides all that, for this thread's object, the wealth to happiness ratio, it's expected that only disposable income would have an effect, so more money going insurances won't make more people happy.
