Considering the kind of hype surrounding around Rhodiola, I was sceptical, but curious. So I gave it a try. First day I didn't notice anything, maybe a slight negative (increase in anxiety or fatigue, a worn feeling) that might've been due to something else. Second day (today) it made me feel pretty tired. As it came on I felt a bit of an endorphin/opiate niceness, but then some other part of it started to overtake it and I was feeling tired. Not quite sleepy- I didn't feel the desire to go to bed, but it brought on a feeling of fatigue and dismotivation that I don't usually feel after being awake for just two hours.
Anyone else have this happen? Ideas for how to get something useful out of this herb? I'm taking bulk powder from BN/1fast400, self-capped 500mg.
