hey everybody,
the title pretty much sums it up. i used to not get "crashes" but last roll i did. i guess. right after my roll too. i just couldnt think or function. time passed so fast too. i just kept wanting to sleep or something but i couldnt. i couldnt decide on what to do either. i mean, i knew what i had to do, but i just kept thinking that i had to just chill, but that didnt work. took 100mg of 5htp and problem solved. no problems the days after.
would zoloft be more effective for a crash?
another question is whether im taking 5htp or an ssri, when exactly should i take it after my roll? some people say right after, others say wait a few hours. any info/advice would be helpful.

thanks
 
I prefer 5-HTP because its lack of side effects.

You can take 5-HTP after 6h of the MDMA. Be sure to test the substance, otherwise you should not do it. If not sure, take 5-htp after 36/48h of the substance.
 
You shouldnt be taking anti-depressants within like 2 or 3 days of rolling, serotonin syndrome is a very serious drug interaction you may want to read up on, and personally I wouldnt risk it.

5-HTP would be a lot more helpful, but L-Trytophan is basically the same thing as 5-HTP though, and it is MUCH more effective.


Just wait till about 24 hours until after your roll, if you really want something to help with the comedown, I recommend weed, ketamine or benzos :)
 
Ya know I have a bunch of zoloft laying around and am wondering if I could indeed use this instead of having to go out and buy L-trytophan or 5-htp. Maybe even a smaller dose such as 50mg or 25mg?
 
Once again, you should wait a day or two to avoid

SSRIs actually cause serotonin DOWN regulation, while L-trypto and other things like piracetam cause your body to make MORE serotonin, which is why they are preferred.


taking anti-depressants after rolling doesnt really seem like it would do anything to help, probably just make you feel like a zombie...
