Hi,

Does anyone know the interaction between ice and 5-htp? If you're using meth on a semi-regular basis, would it be best to pre-load with 5-htp? Or what are some good pre and post load supplements with meth usage?
 
not to sure with the 5-htp but meth being involved with serotonin I am guessing that it would probably be beneficial for afterwards and I wouldn't mind finding out the answer myself.

I eat a couple of bananas after meth before I go to sleep (if I can sleep) and take all sorts of multi vitamins. Fish oils, Inner health plus, Horse Radish and Garlic, Daily and Sports and the next day I feel like a king. No come down whatsoever.

I am however a very infrequent user.
 
i wouldnt take any before using meth.. meth releases serotonin and you might risk giving yourself serotonin syndrome. save it for after.. when youre crashing it might help a little bit.
 
Don´t expect too much from 5-htp if you intend to use it to make you feel better the day after Meth.

Meth is a very weak serotonine releaser. It mostly acts as a norepinephrine/dopamine releaser. The ratio dopamine/serotonine release is 30/1.
 
i read an article elsewhere that implied that taking 5-htp supplement WITH meth would increase the state of euphoria/preserve a frequent users ability to continue to achieve an element of the initial euphoria that an infrequent user/first time user gets.
does anybody have any actual reference-supported answers regarding this instead of "well i don't know anything about anything you asked but if i had to guess...." ???
the latter is NOT helpful.
thanks :-)
 
I have been using meth for about 2 years now, after the first 6 months I was burnt out and a friend asked if I head taking 5-htp I had never heard of it before, he said it would help the recovery the next day, It worked great, one night I got a wild idea to take it about midnight after smoking for several hours, I took the recommended dose and went about "tweaking" to my surprise I didn't feel groggy or tired or paranoid when I went to work, I did it again the following night and the same result, after 14 days with no sleep and no side side affects (that long without sleep should have caused psychosis but the serotonin produced by 5-htp replaced what was not being produced during REM sleep) I had an appetite, I had no problem drinking water, and taking care of myself, I decided that even though I wasn't tired that my body needed time to rest, I won't go more than 2 weeks without sleep just due to the fact that i missed sleeping, along with 5-htp I also take potassium, magnesium, and zinc, along with vitamin C, vitamin B12/6, and potassium gluconate (all available at Walmart in the vitamin isle) this combination allows me to go weeks on end without sleep and without looking/feeling/acting tired i am in no way saying that this is a good idea, METH is in my opinion the worst drug known to man I have cut back from a gram a day to a gram a week and I'm hoping I will one day be able to say that I beat it without "rehab" hope this was helpful I am willing to answer any other questions feel free to ask
 
Meth too expensive and for what??????

I've become a daily user myself and I hate it too bc of its cost. How can anyone afford it, how am I. There is just nothing else around where I am in Melbourne. I have never had this comedown everyone talks of but although I'm paying top dolls I'm pretty sure it's poor qual as in 3 mtgs only had 3 highs and that's on a barrel.
Btw I take the same vit and supplements have to, have lost too much wt.
