I was taking somewhere around 75-100mg before workouts five days a week. I stayed on it for probably 2-3 months consistently. I did experience side effects while on it, as well, but they were almost all positive. I'd usually feel mild euphoria and an increased sex drive. The only drawback was the major crash 4-5 hours after taking it.
A few weeks ago, I decided to cycle off of all pre-workout supplements since the effects had nearly diminished even at my fairly high dosage level. Not long after ceasing use, I began to feel really lethargic and just had a negative state of mind that I couldn't snap out of. Only just recently have I started to feel normal again. I've experienced caffeine-withdrawals before, but I would just feel tired and get a few headaches from that...not the depressed feeling.
Has anyone else experienced some fairly noticeable withdrawal symptoms from DMAA?
When I get back on a pre-workout, I may go with something stimulant-free to avoid these ups-and-downs.
