How long for sarcosine to take effect?

Just found an unopened bag of sarcosine I bought 2 years ago. Expires in October, I’m starting it today at 1.5g. How long before I feel a difference in negative symptoms?

i felt it after two months at 3g per day
you should maybe buy a new bag

Sarcosine doesn’t make changes in your life. You make changes in your life. The Sarcosine just makes that seem more possible.

Since starting, I have gone back to school, started showering and shaving every day, and started helping with chores. The Sarcosine helps. But I did all of that.

Also, @Anon10, I started noticing effects after a month. I started at 1/2 g for a week, then 1 g for a week, then 2 g, which is my current dose. I’ve been taking it for about a year.

I am starting Sarcosine on Saturday, I will be taking 1500mg a day and hopefully it will help with my negative symptoms.
