Wonderful, that sounds like the kind of thing I've been looking for, for years.

You say you make capsules out of it, could you not just mix the powder in with some water or something?

Aniracetam isn't water soluble, but fat soluble. You'd be better mixing it into something high in fat. You'll also need to take a source of choline with it, I take capsules (8 bucks) but you could just have eggs or something. I take the capsules with some whole milk or yogurt or egg yokes.

Piracetam is water soluble, cheaper-- but far less potent.

Technically, someone who commits suicide would be considered a coward, but a life is a delicate thing for anyone else to try and tell you what to do with it. Committing suicide goes against everything biologically human since you're destroying what your basic human reactions are trying to preserve. Getting to that state psychologically has to be so intense that no one who's gonna tell you you're a coward is gonna understand it. If a person can't handle life, you can't just tell them they're a coward. It doesn't cover the depth of their problems.

But at the same time, my mother is extremely depressed and she's tried to commit suicide a few times. I'd definitely never just let her go so easily...That would be much too hard...

I dont see no reason to commit suicide and I would not call it cowardly, it is just mental issues that could be from a variety of issues

If all that's true, why would they be considered a coward?

The way I read it semtex is speaking what other people think so that's why she said "would be considered."

I figured that's the way they meant it, I guess the "technically" just threw me off.

People who commit suicide have severe mental issues. Capiche. It has nothing to do with being a coward. Do you seriously think any "normal" person could counteract their most fundamental basic instinct by saying "oh I'm scared"? That takes a hell of a lot of mental overpowering, and fear is about survival.

I don't understand how actually committing suicide is a call for attention? Does that even make any sort of sense?

I've always thought that the notion of people that commit suicide as being cowardly, to be a totally ridiculous comment. The thought of a sane person doing the act is terrifying alone and far from being cowardly! A person with mental issues, is not even going to be thinking as a sane person would, so bravery and cowardice doesn't even enter into the equation here. I guess that a terminally ill person that wants to commit suicide, still has to find a huge amount of bravery to go through with it and again it's far from a cowardly act.
