5-htp, how much do you personally like it?

I started taking 5-htp (200mg doses) after rolling. That night after my roll when I get back, then every day for the next 5 days. It almost completely negates any depression I used to have before taking it. I take month breaks in between my rolls. Call it a placebo if you want, but I feel that it clearly works for me.
 
Taken it before rolls, after rolls, and really I don't think it makes much of a difference for recovery or a better roll experience. Now just a forgotten bottle in my cabinet. Also not a positive experience taking it without the involvement of E, just a slightly different feeling it creates.

I only roll a few times a year, so recovery is there for me regardless.
 
I should have added Klonopin is my drug of choice for a post roll. Much better at countering the side effects than 5HTP.
 
Yeah 5htp is also supposed to help you sleep, as well as help with headaches apparently. I take 100-200mg and it makes me feel calmer and happier and I always have a good sleep after.

after i've rolled, it helps ease the comedown and makes it easier to sleep later on when my mind would normally be buzzing. i don't always take it, usually just for a few days after, or if i've been feeling like shit or whatever.
 
5htp deffinitley helps me out the following days. Because once i rolled without taking 5-htp the days after, i almost punched my mom in the face. and the next time i rolled and took 5-htp after i felt great and had almost no anti-social feelings.
 
This is what I think about the ppl who have taken 5-HTP, and it not having an effect at all. You who fit in this category probably have a higher SERT level; which means you don't need it because you have a higher than average seratonin level, and your body already produces more than enough. That is my theory. To the indivuduals that it does work for; the opposite is probably true for those who fit in the low SERT kevel category. Meaning your body may under produce SERT which when you take 5-HTP it supplements for the loss that an average person would have. That is my theory on that. Now for the ppl who have been taking it since there MDMA usage; it is definitely a good idea to take before and after; not only for the replenishing of SERT, but also for it's potential antioxidant properties as well. I take 100mg before bed along with Mekatonin as well, and It puts me out very nicely. I have some pretyy awesome dreams by the way. It is satd when an individual takes LSD, 2C-B or any thing along those lines-also MDA-that the pineal gland releases melaonin while tripping. Just thought I would throw that out there.
