RCs MDAI - Terrible hangover next day

Last night at around 12:20 PM myself and my girlfiend ingested about 210-220 mg. of MDAI. What followed was one of the worst nights ever. I felt very weird and my brain felt like it was being scratched. The anxiety was terrible. I got weird feelings in my body and the back of my neck was experiencing odd sensations of warmth/an icy feeling. I was also feeling moderately nauseaus through out the night. The most predominant feeling of all was the sensation of being either freezing or way too hot. After about 3 hours we acquired some hydroxyphene (pretty much a benzo) in the hopes that it would make us feel better and maybe allow us to sleep. I'm pretty sure I got at least 4 hours of seep, maybe more, but I remained awake for the first 4 or 5 hours trying to sleep.

Now it is 3:21 the day after. I feel pretty terrible. I am very depressed and anxious. My head is feeling somewhat of an after effect similar to what I felt the night before but less strong. I don't know what to do with myself... I sit down to watch TV and then I feel like I have to get up and go somewhere else because everything seems somewhat distant and awkward (the only way I can put it really). I am still getting the hot and cold sensations but they are very mild compared to the previous night.

I am very worried about this situation and was hoping someone with experience or knowledge could give me some good news or at least some information I could use. I am contemplating going to the hospital but I don't know what good that would do. I am hoping this is just a hangover and I will be feeling back to normal later today. If not I do not know what I will do. If I do end up going to the hospital, what information do you think I should give the doctor about MDAI? I'm sure he will not know what it is and I would need to give him adequate information he can use in my prognosis. I'm really hoping it does not get to that.
 
It sounds like you may have experienced a mild (relatively speaking) case of serotonin syndrome. I looked up that drug name and couldn't find it. Would you double check the name as it could be relevant? There are many drugs that contribute to serotonin syndrome; were you taking any medications, pills, vitamins, or supplements around the same time?
 
MDAI is the correct name, there is a thread about the drug called "The big and dandy MDAI thread".

I feel as though seratonin syndrome could not be the case since I did not take a rediculously large dose. Of course there is no way of knowing. I am not on any other medications nor did I take anything else that would contribute to the release of seratonin.

It is now 8:53 and I am feeling a bit better. I am not as helplessly depressed but still depressed nontheless. The awkward spacey head feeling has gone down a bit but I am still feeling that as well.

Do you think taking some 5-htp would help? I have taken it before and it has helped with comedowns but I am afraid that it may make me feel even more weird since I am still feeling odd. Also, how long do the effects of 5-htp usually last? And should I take it this late at night?
