Is Sarcosine supposed to make you hyper?

I took 1500mg a couple of hours ago. Its giving me energy but it didn’t improve my thoughts and emotion, I still like to be in bed all day everyday. I just feel like racing thoughts.

Can it trigger mania if I am sz and not sza?

I wonder if going from sz to sza is an improvement lol

It didn’t make me hyper. I just ran out of it. I’m not sure if im going to get more. I’m worried about the long term use and prostate cancer thing. I’m not sure if its real or not but I’m not sure if it is or is not worth the risk.

What effects did you get?

I think I got a cognitive boost and it lessened the negatives…but I switched to Abilify around the same time I started taking it so its hard to know which caused the effect or if they both contributed.

I think it gives a cognitive boost but its the Abilify that improves negatives. I hope I can sleep tonight.

What do you think about the prostate cancer risk? Do you think its real?

From what I read its just a biomarker of prostate cancer, doesn’t mean its the cause. But anyways prostate cancer isn’t dangerous from what I read and it will take decades to have it, I would keep taking sarcosine if it really improves negatives.

I should point out that I was on the dual formula from profrontal. so i was actual taking two supplements.

Lets see if sarcosine is bs or if it can really get me out of bed, I will give it 2-3 weeks.

I will say that sarcosine isn’t a miracle cure for negatives. It makes tasks go from impossible to unpleasant, but you still have to force yourself to do them.

I dont remember what my dosage was. I was taking two sarcosine pills a day…from thttps://www.profrontal.com/ bottles and two pills of the secondary supplement. I think my dosage was lower. I’ll find out when I get my new bottles what the dosage was.

How many 500mg pills do you take? It says 6/day on the bottle, its too much. 6 one shot? I took 3.

18

where did you order from? The pills might be different doses.

19

Amazon US, it says Super Smart on the bottle.

I think my pills were 1000mg . I took 2 sarcosine and 2 N-Acetyl Cysteine. It was part of their dual formula.
