I understand taking 5htp immediately after mdma usage can help replenish serotonin, but how about usage of SJW after that week period for the intermediate to long term before the next roll?

i've found pretty conflicting information on this. is there any new research or can anyone reflect on personal experiences? its said to be both a weak maoi and a weak ssri.

i've read that sjw can upregulate serotonin receptors, has anyone seen any truth to that or any recent studies? is the ssri action significant enough to impact future mdma usage, assuming I use sjw in the long run?

i've also read about the SSRE tianeptine but I'm unsure about availability in the US and the information seems rather limited. has anyone successfully used this to upregulate their serotonin receptors post-usage?

lastly, what value does piracetam have? i cant seem to see why people use it.
 
i dont know but let me tell u 5-hpt is something worth buying!!!! i am also courious about pircetam but i know 5hpt has worked for me...
 
I wouldn't use any SSRIs/anything that has an SSRI-esque effect atleast a month before you roll. Added to that, you should always try to look up side-effects before you take combinations of different drugs (or simply, ask your doctor).

Personally though, I don't believe in 5htp or any of the other drugs that are meant to either increase your roll, or make you have less of a comedown. I've tried them, and to me, it didn't make the comedown any better (I don't have bad comedowns, so it didn't really matter too much to me) but if it works for you - even if it may only be a placebo effect - I'd say go for it.
 
not so concerned with the comedown, i haven't had major issues with that. i generally just take some melatonin or a benzo, sleep, and im cool the next morning.

what i'm asking is more mid-long term supplementation to restore the brain to a more 'normal' state after mdma usage.
