Hello everyone. I’m 31 and live in NYC. I suffer from social anxiety and though I’ve combatted most of those struggles head on and do okay for myself, I’m hoping pheromones will be just the extra edge I need to succeed, not just with women and romance, but with people in general. I’m excited to place my first order and start experimenting!
Hi Adrian,
I would get IS as it will help with confidence. some IO and IH will help you out a lot as well. For Attraction Ammo is your best bet and TUTH is saved for the bedroom. But for your goals I suggest IS, IH, and IO as your main products. Then add some Ammo for attraction. I think these 4 products will be your best bet. Good luck my man.
hi AdrianGains, welcome here and to the world of pheros.
For social anxiety : IS +IO is well known .
But if you are looking at a combo which can give you a alpha , high status vibe , u should use these with A314 (unfortunately its out of stock, will be back soon ).
Till A314 is back u can use : IS +IO + IG (milder form of A314).
use with lower doses and then move upwards in dose and knowing ur sweet spot.
take care
Hi AdrianGains.
Use IO+IS to solve your social anxiety problem and improve your social skills first,then add some ammo for attraction.
Thanks! I’m definitely going to get the IS and AMMO, (possibly the heavy?) and was thinking about getting the IH and skipping the IO, or the other way around. Getting both seems redundant, at least right now. I’d definitely be adding A314 to that but being that it’s out, the IG sounds good too. I guess it’d be a plus being that I do prefer older women. I’m also going to get a to-go bottle of TUTH. Seems like a good tool to have in your back pocket when you’re close to sealing the deal.
I had a question though, the IG, is it actually a “milder form of A314” as in, does it use basically the same pheromones, or is it altogether different, just with similar effects? Trying to figure out whether I should skip the IG and wait till the 314 comes out. Reason I’m asking is this… I’m a veteran (which is where a lot of social anxiety comes from) and while I no longer look like I was ever in the military, I still have a presence that some find intimidating… I’ve heard the word “intense” used to describe me more then a few times, even though I’m the one intimidated by everyone around me. I can fake confidence well enough, but I have none. I feel like the 314 would help me personally in that aspect, but it may make me more intimidating… which I don’t want. Just thinking out loud but if anyone has advice in that regard on what to get, I’d be much appreciated.
Thanks again for the response!
IG is similar in a lot of ways to A314. IG might work out great for you because A314 can come off as intimidating sometimes. I am into older women to and they like an overt signature meaning they respond better to like androstenone then a woman that is 20. I have actually worn a spray of regular TUTH on dates with woman over 40 with great luck. I know I couldn’t do that with someone that is 20. I can tell you I have had really great luck with 2 drops A314 and a spray of TUTH on dates to. But it is tricky beacause it can backfire to if the signature is to strong for them.
If you suffer from social anxiety, I’d suggest you steer well-clear of A314 for now as it can make your task much harder and actually put barriers between you and other people - It can make you feel more cool and in-control, yes but it can also come-off as “too good”/standoffish or even remote/unapproachable if you can’t be social and forward enough to project its status along with the force of your personality.
The lighter sexuals like Ammo (but I’d still advise having some TUTH in your pocket) and more social mones like IO, IS, IG are much more suited to sociability and personally the phero that has had the most remarkable effects on anxiety sufferers is MX297.
IG is not A314-lite. The steering between both products is very different and IG is the lighter/brighter/more youthful of the pair - although in the absence of A314, IG/P75 goes some way to approach the status impact of A314 but its still a far less complex status overall.
Lastly, relying on mones self-effects to counter anxiety is often difficult. You soon start to adapt to them and need ever-higher doses to get the same level of self effects - If you get them at all, many people don’t. Eventually you can get to the point where your self-effective doses are into OD level for people around you and can start working right against you.
Thanks everyone for the advice. I decided it’s definitely worth steering clear of the A314 for now and going ahead with the IG. Mobocaster, your statement stuck out to me: “…but it can also come-off as “too good”/standoffish or even remote/unapproachable if you can’t be social and forward enough to project its status along with the force of your personality.”
I think I already put out the “too good”/standoffish" vibe. People I interact with see the way I look, (muscular, masculine features, strong presence) and then interpret my shyness and low-self esteem as just the opposite. They assume I’m arrogant. While I do okay socially, I’m not yet adept enough at combatting that effect via personality.
This is partially why I’ve come to really appreciate older women, they don’t seem affected by this at all. They perceive me far more accurately. Way more intuitive and emotionally smarter. So IG seems like a more fitting choice for me.
I think I’ve got my line up set now, though I am going to check out the MX297
Thanks again everyone.
Hello Adrian!

Great recommendations you have here. I have nothing to add mone-wise. Just a tip to check your inbox and spam folders because I dropped your $25 Intro GC in there earlier.
