So I got a to-go bottle at 12.5mcg. Last night I figured I would give it a whirl. sooo… Two sprays, 25mcg total. One at the neck, one split between the wrists and my upper lip. Now granted it was nearly midnight and I was already tired but within about ten minutes, I noticed a definite lack of whatever energy I had left and I managed to fall asleep a lot faster than normal. Usually it takes me a good ten to fifteen minutes even if I’m dead tired but I think I passed out in five minutes. Now here’s the kicker: I don’t sleep straight through the night, I always wake up periodically. This time, I slept straight through, with no dreams till about 8am. So I’d be willing to try this again but at a lower mcg but at high dosages it seems (to me at least) that it does have almost a sedative like effect. I’m wondering if at lower dosages it’s more of a calming effect. ---

Hmm… Interesting. Maybe it effects melatonin on some level. I need to try this stuff for my 2 year old. 🙂 ---

I have not read much about TAK, but for me between 5-10 mcgs at night keeps me awake. Not in an energetic sense, its just that I cannot fall into a restful sleep. I lay there almost asleep but still barely conscious. Sucks and makes for a long night! Otherwise I really love TAK. It is an awesome molecule. ---

I’m a terrible sleeper for past 8 years I have tac in 5mcg do you think this would be a good sleeping mix tak and tac? If so what would be a good level to mix with my tac ---

TAK is hard to figure out, but it seems to work in ultra-low doses. 1 mcg is the same as 10. We need more people to test it out at various doses. TAC does knock me out at low doses, but other people don’t seem to get very drowsy from it at all. Your own body may respond differently from mine. You will have to test these out and see what happens. ---

I sense some travel size orders in my future. Once the shipping issue is finally under control of course. ---

For me is TAK not a sleeping aid, if anything, my mind is racing with TAK, contra-productive. But it’s physical relaxing. ---

So would I use tak at a lower dose than tac when combined? I know everyone’s chemical makeup is different and people react different to different things I’m just generalizing ---

TAK can be sedative, like a mild xanax. If you stay active and engaged, you should still feel awake, but if you stop to lay down and unwind, it might just get you stuck.
