So I've only done mdma 5 times before over the course of about 2 years. I plan on doing it 2 more times and then quitting. Do you all think I should start taking 5htp? Would it be good for me to repair any possible damage that i might have done?
 
no way man, 5-htp will make the damage wors. The serotonin comes back on it's own, the only thing that's been mentioned to help the serotonin regenerate is the SSREnhancer drug Tianeptine
 
It's not necessary, too much seratonin in your brain can cause downregulation, which causes a lot more longterm damage than temporarily depleted seratonin. You already risk downregulation by rolling, having your seratonin levels constantly artificially boosted is probably the worst thing you can do. If you do notice side effects a week or more after a roll then if would be a good idea to switch to a diet high in tryptophan (eggs, milk, cheese, turkey) and work out.

Hmm could you provide evidence that 5-HTP make the damage worse?
As I am extremely curious since I take it daily.
 
Ummm... people need to stop talking out of their asses.

5-HTP will not make anything worse - when the body doesn't need anymore serotonin, it just doesn't do the conversion... that or it excretes excess... 5-HTP is a wonderful supplement not just for pre/post load but for daily use... its been proven time and time again to be as effective and in some cases MORE effective as prescription anti-depressants with the main side effect being nausea...
 
^^lol I know that. I was giving him a chance to stop blowin sunshine up our asses.

For knowing your shit
 
Woot woot!

Seriously the amount of misinformation on this place blows me away...

Even my DOCTOR knows that 5-HTP is better than the anti-depressants, he just has to recommend them because he could lose his license for prescribing me something better...
 
I have never heard of 5-htp causing any harm. I think many people on here are full of shit. Like those giving warnings about double dropping MDMA but condoning heroin use as a comedown aid.
 
5-HTP has always exacerbated the stomach problems I get on the comedown and the days after. L-Tryptophan works just as well without those problems, and actually helps me get to sleep too.

L-tryptophan isn't a guaranteed serotonin synth.

If you get the Natrol brand, it never upsets my stomach. Popping em like crazy right now actually.

If your not rolling reguallary then there is no need to take 5htp - just rest well before hand and then after the roll and you will be fine.

If you have proof of this claim then a link would be appreciated :)

No problem. 5-HTP really is a wonderful supplement. I use it before, during, and after rolling though most only post-load, it doesn't seem to negatively affect my roll so I do it throughout. It certainly removes the jaw clenching better than magnesium.

seriously aftewr i take e. the day after if i dont take 5htp. thenh im fckd,
 
5-HTP making damage worse? sounds like ignorance to me. the 5-htp is a building block to serotonin (5-HT)..
 
if your gonna take 5HTP its a good idea to supplement it with L-Tyrosine. not doing so can actually cause a decrease in dopamine levels( 5HTP is to serotonin, as L-Tyrosine is to dopamine) taking one without the other can cause the undersupplemented neurotransmitter to actually decrease slightly
 
Please do not flame or abuse a poster - it will only lead to YOU getting a warning / infraction etc.
 
so i gave my girl a bottle of 5-HTP and she started taking them last night, when should she start seeing results, like spark back in our love life and eating better a no more damn mood swings. should i get her anything else also? thanks guys, idk what i would do without this site :)
