5-htp?

I've heard a lot about this but never tried it.
Apparently if you take it after a heavy night pilling it's supposed to help with the comedown and builds serotonin levels.
But what I'm wondering is if you took 5-HTP before a heavy night out then would it increase the rush?
I googled it but had no luck, only information on 5-HTP after ecstacy use. Any info would be cool :thumb:

Personally I've taken 5-HTP before and after taking MDMA. I think taking 5-HTP between nights out probably helped to get me into the next night, but the effect on the first night wasn't really noticable. But it could depend on how long before you take MDMA you take the 5-HTP, and what dosage.
I might still give it a try, gonna read up some more about it when I get home from work. Thanks for the links
5-HTP
I draw your attention to the effects of articificially high levels of serotonin in the blood stream, which can be found in the Pharmacology heading and include fibrosis of the heart. I might do a bit on this in my Podcast actually.
Fucking around with your serotonin on a regular basis is GOING to have some short to moderate effects beyond the mechanism of action of this drug, so be careful, dont take more than you need for a buzz and use it sparingly (E that is)
Pill wise, strangely enough, the weekend I dropped wile takin 5-htp, the pill experience was amazing, felt very much like my first time, but what makes me doubt it was the 5-htp was that my friend whod taken the same batch of pills felt exactly the same, but hadnt taken any 5-htp, thus it probably being down to a good batch of pills (WISH we could find them again they wer fab [gud Sharks])...BUT the comedown from the weekend wasnt as bad at all, felt pretty normal and clear headed so it obviously does something!
Still, at £14.99, its a bit of a sharp price to pay, and I personally wouldnt say they were worth that, but hey, if u wanna try it, it did something for me!
you wanna watch that mate, taking this WITH amphetamines is not advised.
Is more the question.

I suppose it makes the pharmaceutical companies millions and diverts attention from bad parenting.
With this statement I make no presumptions about anyone on these boards, ok?
The over-prescriptions of Ritalin, Concerta, Adderall, Adderall XR, Strattera, and Dexedrine are because of two things.
The doctors like you are saying. It's a very profitable market to be in. You convince everyone that they need an expensive medication taken everyday and you're pretty much set.
Parents is another thing. School's are very exclusive, very hard to get into and very competative. Having an advantage over the other people makes it easier to get into a more prestigous school. So parents push doctors for prescriptions.
It's interesting though, doctors will not prescribe the more abusable medications until you have a good history with some of the less abusable medications.
The whole thing is just ridiculous
