5-htp and weed

so yeah I receltly found out about people taking 5-htp to "preload" MDMA trips as well as with pot. So I decided to give it a try and see how it would affect getting high. I took 150 mg of 5-htp that i bought at CVS, then waited like an hour and a half and smoked a couple bowls. The bud i have right now normally makes me way tired, but this time i was not tired at all, it was like a speedy very intense high, and I dont think this cud have possibly just been a placebo effect. I got way higher than I normally would have. I plan to keep taking 5-htp for a week or so and keep increasing my steronin to see how it will affect me smoking again. Anybody else tried using 5-htp to "preload" any other drugs?

Lmfao, whenever me and my friend are really blazed we dance around and say:"Tryptophan reality!!!" hahaha.

So how many mg's are in a piece of turkey? Jw because i mean your bashing on the kid and shit. I mean i will admit lol your comment was hilarously funny, but unless you've really taken the pills(and taken more mg's then whats in turkey) I'd say stfu lol

lol my post sounds funnny cuz it talks about turkey lol

5-htp is not tryptophan, it's 5-hydroxytryptophan. When you take L-tryptophan, like what's in turkey, it's converted to 5-hydroxytryptophan, then to 5-hydroxytryptamine, aka serotonin. Taking 5-htp is more effective in increasing serotonin levels than tryptophan.

haha yeah sanityassassin knows what hes talking about, besides L-tyrptophan was banned by the FDA in the late 80s. But yeah if don't believe me try it, haha. I tired taking 400mg again and then smoked like 2 hours later and it was great, like a really hyper high. I dunno how else to describe it. And what was also wierd, no munchies at all. I always get the munchies, but I guess its cuz the 5-htp makes you not hungry anyway.

I hear ya, I'm not sure if I like taking 5-HTP and smokin or not. I've find I have to be more careful about how much I smoke. A couple of times I've got too high from it. It's the exact same edgey, nervous high I used to get when I first started smoking and smoked too much.

yeah thats what it feels like.. like getting high for the first time all over again. Its definatly something different if you get bored with a strand you have or something, of if you only have some half decent bud that you wanna get fucked up more on than usual.
