    Post 5-htp

    I know this has been covered many times on this site, but I'd like to re-up on it (both 5-htp and the benefits of it.)

    Does anybody have experience with it?

    I have been researching online for the past couple hours and the 118 reviews on WebMD seem to be the tipping points for me to use it. These people who have reviewed claim that they have felt suicidal, depressed, empty and after taking 5-htp, they felt like themselves, calm, collected, and "normal" again.

    I personally have a history of anxiety (came with my ADHD as a kid) and have been experiencing anxiety and insomnia lately. I am cruising at 250mg/wk test e, and unfortunately don't have an AI on hand. I think this may be part of why I'm so "testy" lately - but I'm going to give 5-htp a try for my anxiety, over-worrying, and insomnia.

    It works decently as it is a precursor to serotonin....

    helps with sleep cycles if taken close to bed

    not super strong but it is a noticeable lift after a few weeks of dosing
