In some of the product descriptions, I saw references to “if you use on the neck or ears, it will affect you too and you may not want that”. What product would work best to lift my spirits while also using it on others? ---

This is mainly on products with strong self effects, such as IFM (which can have depressive self-effects for men) > [@Seraphim54](#): > > What product would work best to lift my spirits while also using it on others? That would be [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/), some say it lifts their spirits and makes them happy, kind of a rush for a couple hours, most people spray it on their throat or chin for the self effect. Products with Copulins will boost your testosterone and can help reduce laziness and fatigue feelings associated with depression. But cops may have negative effects on those around you. ---

Realize most people gradually develop a tolerance to mones and the effects diminish with regular use. So don’t count on them as self-medication or a replacement for proper antidepressant therapy. I use IS and TAA but have not felt any self-effects for a very long time. Nevertheless they work great on people you just met, strangers and other casual acquaintances. I consider TAA products an essential part of my wardrobe. A great duo with A314 for work (mellows the formalism of A314) or with alpha nol for socializing. Also helps mellow heavy -none doses for hot dates. ---

Ohhh…did not realize a tolerance was developed. How long does that take? And if usage is stopped will tolerance go back down? No, I would never go on antidepressants for the occasional “situational mopiness” I get. That would be like using a cannon to kill a mosquito lol. Thanks for your feed back. ---

It depends on the person. Some, like me, it happened pretty quickly. Others more slowly. A few–mostly new users–claim they’re stoned as Buddha no matter what. Some say if they stop for a few weeks or a month, they get “stoned” again. I haven’t felt a damn thing for many years, even when I try new [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/). Now that’s fine with me. I really don’t wanna fall on my own sword or drink my own poison so to speak. I want to be in control of myself and those around me. I see pheromones as a social tool and I certainly don’t wanna be controlled or influenced by them, so I look at my tolerance as a blessing. ---

Well, I’m still new enough to get the self effects from most of the products I tried, but I’ll give an honourable mention to IFM as doing something which makes me happy in an indirect way. Not from the self effects, cos there are none. I don’t get depressed like some men have reported, nor do I get any uplifting self effects off it. Nothing happens to me personally. I sprayed loads of the stuff on myself, nothing. But seeing the nice effect it appears to have on women is its own reward, and that makes me pleased in turn. So should there come a day I don’t get any buzz from the Ishine or IO or whatever, the feedback from other people in social situations will, I hope, be a lift to my own spirits. This of course involves actively socialising; it’s not a passive solution like a proper antidepressant. ---
