Hello everyone, I’m Derek. I am a 26 year old male from Southwest Louisiana. i looked into [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/) a year or two ago, but never got any, but then I saw a Dial commercial recently and it reminded me of this community, so here I am again. There are many reasons why I am here. I am curious about the scientifics of pheros, as well as the novel effects of them. Mostly though, I am looking for a helping hand to overcome some of my shortcomings. Most people would describe me as shy, but that doesn’t quite fit me, as I am not nervous around people I don’t know, I just get a mental block and find it difficult to initiate or sustain a conversation. Once I get to know a person, and trust them, my social skills are fine. I am hoping that pheromones can help me get past that mental barrier a bit quicker. Once women are around me for a while and see my personality, they generally like me and often times are attracted to me, but initially the see me as stand-offish, quiet, and unapproachable. I have ordered A314 and TUTH already, and I will probably get one more product such as IH or IS to help break the ice. Any recomendations? ---

Hi Derek, Super massive welcome to the forum 🙂 cool choice for a user name 🙂 🙂 Hmm [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) and Instant honesty for use together 🙂 Its a touch more buffered than using straigh come talk to me. Ammo also has a softer feel than A314. Watch your none applications you don’t want to put out too much as it can cause some really bad reactions people get hostile ectra. A lot of the guys seem to like spaceland as well the smell is pretty clean and nice as far as I’m concerned A314 also smells nice. ^.^ You sound like a really interesting person feel free to add me to your friends and bug me whenever. Bout whatever. 🙂 Oh Ps: instant shine is pretty nice too so not a bad choice there but if you’re getting tuth and A314 I’d get a “nol” based social to buffer those. I’d recommend ammo over tuth in general in terms of starting out tuth can be tricky. ---

Welcome Derek. For ease of maintaining conversations, ih and io for sure. You may also want to try ig as many people find it makes them more socially smooth and adept. ---

Add Instant Shine… will put you in a socializing feel good mood. Personally I like [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) over Honesty, just works better for me. Welcome to the forum. ---

HI derek, Welcome to the forum. You need some [social pheromones](https://a314.com/product-category/social-pheromones/). IO is to make you more approachable. It can open up people and make them like to talk to you. That would break the ice. SHine is also good socially. It can make people and yourself in good mood. It can also add more confident to you socially. GOod luck ---

Hey Derek, Welcome to the forums… What’s the nature of the “mental block”? You just can’t think of anything to say? ---

Hello First Welcome to Pherotalk 🙂 You mention a mental barrier. I assume you just mean your shyness or nervousness around just makes you freeze up when you first meet a person. This is common. I do not suggest Spaceland though. This is a high dose of anol and is made to make people zone out. It can be fun but it wont help you with the mental barrier. IH or IO are both great to help with the social barriers. Ishine is a very good buffer for TUTH which can be a bit harsh on its own but its not as helpful in the talking area as IO or IH. Have fun, see ya in the forum Tisha ---

There is lot of good information here! I think I will take everyones advice and try out some to-go bottles of IO, IH, and IS, and see wich ones work best for me. I’d love to try ammo too, but that will have to wait. To get a bit pychological, the ‘mental barrier’ is an emotional barrier, meaning that I usually don’t trust people until I know them very well, and I view them as a threat. In new social situations, my mind just goes blank and I can’t think of anything to say, but I am not nervous. I used to have wicked social anxiety, but I have overcome it for the most part, and this barrier is the last little bit of it. I think with some practice I can overcome this too, and I hope that pheros will help me be more talkative and help me get into more social situations. ---

I have this kind of issue also. Once people get to know me and break down that barrier, it’s much easier to be more open and welcoming, but that first hurdle is such a pain sometimes. Good luck with your research. If I figure anything out myself and have any breakthroughs I’ll be sure to share them with you in hope that they’ll help you too. ---
