Thanks for that tip. I may just ry that AFTER I finish the rather expensive phenylaline i just bought ;-0
When you say amphetamine-like, do you mean jumpy and nervous?
I take trileptal as a mood stablizer, even though I don't really think it works, but it should keep my out of hypomania. If not, we go to lithium or try zonegran.
Oh, and what are precursors of seleg? Do you mean like other maoi drugs?
Thanks so much......I am really blwon away by the kindness and good intentions of so many with knowledge about this stuff here......

Once, back when I had a good doctor and took selegiline, I ingested a large amount of cacao powder and got a distinct, powerful amphetamine-like mood lift lasting about 4 hours. You can get phenethylamine from a standardized cacao extract @

> NEW! CHOCAMINE(tm) is a cocoa extract that has the taste, aroma, and health benefits of unsweetened bitter chocolate standardized to the stimulating, thermogenic, mood & performance enhancing ingredients including 12% theobromine, 8% caffeine, theophyline & PEA. Promotes energy, fat burning, suppresses appetite, improves performance, and is a sexual stimulant - especially for women. Many users report an euphoric feeling. It was an instant hit here at BAC. A recent study showed theobromine to be an effective cough suppressant. Dose is 500-1000mg (1/4-1/2tsp) 1-3x/day taken plain in water, sweetened with stevia or xylitol, with coffee for hi-powered mocha, or any way you can use chocolate.
