Still works for me after 3-4 plus years. I've taken 2-6 week breaks due to running out of product. My dose has gone up, and its effects arn't as pronounced now as they were in the beginning but it still works. I find it works the best when i'm in good shape and my life is going good. It seems to add to that quite a bit making me semi euphoric.
Have you ever tried a low-dose period, maybe stash a small % for those 2-6 week stints? Any findings?

Motivation is lacked while on Piracetam ,but when give Caffeine addition give me nice cognition boost with great motivation (sometime :( )
For depression ,alcohol help a lot ,also anything help raise SAME also help ,some co-factor might depleted and we can get depression if forget about overexciting .

The initial feeling of some kind of propelling pressure only stays for like a month, the intense need to write, the insane need to do things, but different from stimulant motivation, you don't have any increased control over yourself, just stronger emotional pressure. That feeling goes away. The times I have stopped and restarted it after a break for over 2 weeks, when I go back on it, I end up writing huge, massive essays-like posts on places on the internet, lol.
For example, when I restarted after a break last summer, I wrote over 14 pages (not double spaced) to a friend on youtube and wrote many ~4-5 page letters to people just to solve the unbearable need to write. I was writing huge posts on imageboards too, lol. I am glad that doesn't stay.
The memory and milder mood effects stay forever(as long as you still take it), it seems. So does a milder version of the initial pressure feeling that is a lot more manageable and kinda helps with writing and mood. Piracetam is a strong anti-depressant in my experience, and you don't realize it until you go off of it. The mood effect becomes normal, but every single time I have stopped taking it, I have become depressed (like dysthymia or something) in a week, and it has been fixed by going back on it.
I think piracetam is viable as a long term aid for memory and against depression. I wish everyone knew about it, and not just as a "cognition enhancer", but because it really is a fantastic drug that improves life a lot. I think it should be the first line treatment in depressive disorders (especially dysthymia) due to its almost complete lack of side-effects and the fact that it seems to make emotions even stronger (even negative ones sometimes, but takes away the depressed feeling).

The thread about the eye response is interesting, because my pupils expand/shrink a lot when I do it, so if adrenal fatigue plays a role I'd be very interested to know what supplements can help with that. It would also explain why caffeine is so synergistic with piracetam.

I've taken 9000mg Piracetam daily for over a year with mildly noticeable cognitive differences. I say differences because I wouldn't acutely call them benefits--it is a give and take. My primary reason for taking such a chemical in such high doses was to help treat Raynaud's phenomenon in my fingers and toes (study: http://www.ncbi.nlm..../pubmed/8328997).
Although, I did quite enjoy the perceived increase in the speed of learning and apparent increase in long-term memory retention. I do not have concrete evidence to back up these claims. Unfortunately, it did slightly hinder my short-term, working, memory. Incidences of Raynaud's attacks were vastly reduced during this time. Cognitive effects were far and few between.
Please note, I did not combine Piracetam with DMAE, Choline Bitartrate, Alpha GPC, or any other substance that helps to form Acetylcholine. I am very sensitive to these chemicals, and they tend to cause major brain fog and muscle tightness.
I no longer take Piracetam due to a recent kidney stone (unrelated) and want to allow my kidney to fully heal.
