I don’t think it is possible to train to completely remove the negative self-effects of pheromones. What you should be doing is understanding exactly what the negative effects of these products are for you and correct your behaviour to compensate for that.
For example, Androstadienone makes me depressed pretty much every time in the following way: I get negative thoughts about my position socially or at work or whatever - the same negative thoughts seem to reappear every time I wear it. I also get tired when wearing it - it seems to diminish my enthusiasm to tackle tasks. So what do I do? When I am wearing the Androstadienone and suddenly become depressed and ‘slow/mellow’, I realise that my negative thoughts are caused by this pheromone and things will get better when I wash it off. However I need to keep the Androstadienone on to keep this woman from getting aggressive at me or to keep on her good side as there has been a lot of tension between us and she is my bossy flatmate! I also might take a mild stimulant (say a tea or a vitamin B complex) to get me through tasks that need to be done if I am tired from the Androstadienone.
Same thing with -None. I realise I am snappy and aggressive because I am wearing -None so I make a major conscious effort to smile more and be more patient and respectful of people.
The above has pretty much been my experience too.
Hey, Pheroquirk. Nice to see you around.No, I was referring to self-effects only. The acute effects on others are as strong as ever with these two. The most profound self-effects I get to any new pheromone are usually on the first 10 exposures or so. If I don’t use A1 or -none for awhile, I still do quite a pronounced self-effect… but as intense as my own response is, it’s still not as dramatic as my my very first exposure to commercial levels of A1 or -none many years ago. I…
BTW there is gold in MHarris’s old posts. Well worth rereading when time.
