Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted here. My apologies. I haven’t had much luck in the way of hits whenever I use IS, but I’m also not being particularly observant of other people’s behaviors. But this post isn’t about other people, but me.
I sometimes get bad bouts of anxiety, such as now while I prep for a job interview. I’ve been feeling anxious, down, and at times nauseous whenever I think about it, so of course I’m keeping my mind off it by browsing through the forums instead . I was wondering if anyone had any experience with or suggestions for using pheromones for reducing (or better yet, eliminating) the effects of social anxiety.
a314 4-5 drops ,taa oil 4-5 drops, instant openness 3-4 sprays maybe some is to top it off. this works great for me. in fact i wore it today [minus the is ] and had a super great day socially plus i was in a really good mood .
IJ seems to help, tho I don’t have much experience, but it seems to open me up a little bit and make me stand up for myself more and express my opinion.
I’ve fought stagefright off and on for decades, and I’m a frequent performer and professional musician. The anxiety usually starts a couple days before an important show and is manifest as stomach aches, dry throat, frequent bowel movements, inability to sleep, the works. It’s hellish but, oddly, once I start to play it’s gone and I do great.
I tried every anxiety cure known to man from meditation to drugs! And, yes, pheromones of every type and dose. Did any help? Yep, but only a little. Unfortunately I found pheromones only mildly effective. Why? Although initially there was benefit it gradually faded to nothing with regular use. I use them almost daily to influence the behavior of others and have developed a strong tolerance. If you use them once in a blue moon you should be able to keep the buzz alive.
I’ve found A-1 or Androstadienone to have amazing mood enhancing characteristics for women. It’s especially effective for calming and defeating PMS related emotional problems. I used the pure chemset product from LS with excellent results. Androtics Instant Female Magic is mainly A-1, so it may be worth looking into. Women’s Realm also has a small amount of A-1.
Here’s a couple things that helped me: St. John’s Wort (http://www.hypericum.com/). It offered some mood enhancement but made my skin extremely sensitive to light, EOs and colognes (might defeat birth control as well). Also, tea made from licorice root has a strong calming effect.
Hi Zedster,
For interviews, I can’t imagine a better mix than either mx134 or Instant Sexiness A with some Instant Shine. If you will be interviewing with a woman, you could add a spray of Instant Honesty to the back of your head to help bond with her.
I’ve been on both sides of the interviewing table, and I’d say that the interview is as much about the rapport you build with the interviewer as it is about the content of your answers. Interviewers are looking for signs that you will (or won’t) get along with their team.
First impressions are crucial. Pheromones (and a killer interviewing suit, fresh haircut, and manicure) can help here.
Funnel nervous energy into prepping. If you haven’t done so already, pick up a book on interviewing to get an idea of likely questions and then practice.
Pheromones obviously won’t cure social anxiety. But they can give you a little edge that your competition won’t have.
just a small thing - as a guy, I wouldn’t wear I Sexiness to an interview unless I had reasonable experience with it in other contexts first. (I don’t know your sex, zedster). You might be able to get away with it if applied maybe underarm, with other more masculine notes included in the mix. But not my first choice personally for easing nerves.
this is my favourite interview prep book
Great Answers to Tough Interview Questions by Martin John Yate
make sure you have prepared some of your own questions that subcommunicate qualities that show you are right for the job..
First off, I want to thank you all for your suggestions. Some I already had in mind, so it means I’m at least on the right track, though I think I’ll have to pass on Instant Sexiness I might as well update you all with my interview happenings.
It went decently. Not phenomenal, given how much I avoided preparing to keep my nerves in tact, but it was much better than what my active imagination could conceive. I found that St. John’s Wort (2-6 capsules) helped me greatly within minutes, as did a spray to the face of Instant Shine. Only wish I found this out a week before, instead of 2 days before. Ah well, I’ve learned from this experience.
Try P74 at 25 mcg applied under the nose. Turns me into a chatterbox. A drop of A314 under the nose really boosts the confidence and is good for a male, but the manly vibe might not be what you want as a woman - a woman should try TAL instead, giving the vibe of a female alpha. P130 , Liquid Sunshine, TAA and Alpha androstenol are good for relaxing and spacing out. For comfort TAC at 25 mcg or more is great, just don’t apply it in the evening since it tends to give you vivid dreams. Instant Openness and double strength Shine and Come talk to me really opens other people up and this will make you open too, even if the actual self effect may vary (I myself do not get strong self effects from these but the openness of others affect me). Good luck!
