Evening folks,

Last night I took my regular dose of 5-htp (400mg) along with 600mg of glycinated magnesium and a 50mg vitamin b6 tablet. That morning I had taken 400mg of SAM-E and the day before id taken SAM-E as well- but just before I went to bed. At the moment I'm taking oxycodone, dexedrine and benzos scattered around, along with gabapentin from time to time.

I literally nearly had a damn heart attack. I think I might have even saved myself as prior to taking the stuff i had taken 10mg of diazepam (about an hour before). It was exactly the same kind of reaction I had to cocaine that was incredible pure, at first visual disturbances, feeling a bit funny mentally, dry mouth (which wasn't there before) then WHAM sharp pain in my chest and my heart starting racing. My instinct reaction was to get my bottle of diazepam and chew. I think I must have chewed up about 10 tablets in total so 100mg, slowly but surely my heart stopped racing and I knew I was okay.

Has anyone else experienced this kind of effect frkn5htp? I'm kind of thinking it was due to the SAM-E (which I'm never going to take again, I thought it might help with my depression...!)

I've been having quite a lot of weird experienced with supplements recently and I can't really figure them out .. They've never done this kinda stuff to me in the past and I've been taking them for years. For instance, this wasn't as threatening thing but, when I took some DPLA (500mg), gone out and had a beer - in about 4 hours after my last oxy dose I was in withdrawals. and I mean sweaty, massive pupils, fidgeting type. Normally I don't get into a state of w/d from oxy until around 8-9pm the next day, but again, weird.

I've also noted a general bluntness in all drugs the day after taking magnesium supplements - everyone says they are meant to potentiate and stop tolerance rising, but honestly I just need to take more of my dexedrine/oxy the next day to catch a buzz. That's a problem I've always had with magnesium, but it helps move my bowels, so I take it sometimes.

Could anyone gimme a hand/help me out with all of this? I know it's a long list/long read , but I've looked it up everywhere and can't find any conclusive evidence, apart from that 5-htp could possibly cause heart problems in the long term, and as for the DPLA and alcohol, again nothing. Same goes for the magnesium. Nada.

God I wish I could have a head scan and check all my synapses and stuff. Boy oh boy would it be a mess in there I bet. A neuroscientist would have an absolute field day.

Thank you guys.
