Just started taking ClearMind

[Zombie]

Hi,

I have just started taking ClearMind today which is a blend of Siberian Rhodiola Rosea, Rhododendron Caucasium, & rives nigrum. One capsule in the morning, one in the afternoon.

I have to say, they are a bit strange. It was a bit like being on amphetemines! A bit up & down though. I felt quite spacey on some occasions at work but also felt quite focussed at times. Mostly had plenty of energy too but also felt tired on occasion.

My appetite was suppressed which is one of the effects of the capsules. I still ate but it just didn't really seem worth it. I could have stopped right in the middle of my meal & not been bothered.

I went to ASDA this evening to pick up a few items & felt weird, but it was a good weird. Everything just looked clearer than normal & I found myself looking around & taking everything in. It all looked the same but I was able to notice more detail which made it seem different.

I don't really feel any happier or less depressed than I was & I haven't felt like talking much today either. Whenever I spoke, I found it difficult to string the words together. This may be because i'm still finishing my SJW at present. I have taken my final half tablet of SJW this evening & will continue on with the ClearMind from tomorrow.

I'll report again next week.

Thanks
Dave.

I thought I'd post again regarding this ClearMind stuff because weird things are happening. I've only been taking it for 6 days so far & I am feeling OK, not great, just OK but I'm a million miles from where I want to be.

Anyway, the weird thing that's happening is to do with my head. I quite often get a strange feeling of tightening around my skull. The best way to discribe it is to say that it feels like I'm wearing a tight head band or a band round my brain.

It doesn't hurt or anything but it does feel strange. When it occurs, sometimes I have to shake my head a little to make it stop, otherwise I feel like my head might explode!

Has anybody else had this happen to them whilst taking Rhodiola Rosea or ClearMind?

Cheers now!

i just ordered 3 months worth of rhodiola from them so i'll let you know what my progress is and how it affects my general well being.

Hi, I've just read Zombie's post about the "tight band" feeling around the head. I did not get this with RR, but experienced it on several occasions when I have taken Theanine.

I do not take Theanine regularly, but helps to assuage anxiety on the odd occasion.

It also gives me a pain in my head!

Just thought I'd let you know of my experience.

Thanks! :smile2:

Hi guys, I'm new to this site. I just started taking RR 4 days ago and at first I was really spacy and had trouble with words and memory too. I accidentally called my girlfriend by my ex's name :o. I also felt really, really tired and lethargic, but stimulated at the same time... I was also taking SJW at the time too so that may have interacted. I also take a low dose (12.5mg) of Zoloft. I have stopped taking the SJW. I feel better now, more energy, more clarity, and I absolutely love the improvement in mood. I feel a lot more loving toward others, esp. my girlfriend ;) (she forgave me for my little slip-of-the-tongue).
