5HTP's Official Function
K we all know what it used for, but whats its official function? me, ste and harry we're all out when they got some and none of us had a clue what its really designed for, any1 know?
is this that anit cumdown stuff?
its a natural anti depressent,
eg. prozac is an anti depressent and it accelerates the use of seratonin over long period at a slow rate. unlike e which is over a short period and high doses.
5htp is jsut the building block of seratonin so if you take lots of 5htp u have lotys of seratonin so arnt as depressed.
that why ur depressed on comedowns, lower seratonin levels.
this concludes todays ste masterclass

a simple yes wud of sufficed
yes they are antidepressants ... but this leads to their primary use; sleeping tablets.
tkaing htp results in increased levels of serotonin. serotonin levels are linked directly to ability to sleep. More serotonin = greater likelihood of sleep.

Right here's all my known info on 5-Htp. Some of it maybe wrong, I couldnt give a rats ass 
In your noggin you've a large amount of the chemical Seratonin (seratonin being the chemical that keeps you happy). When you take a pill, it uses a large chunk of that seratonin (obviously the more you take the more it uses) and then when the effects of the pill end, theres very little seratonin left to keep you happy, hence a comedown.
Seratonin also takes several days to restore, which is why you get the midweek blues.
5-HTP naturally restores your seratonin levels to normal(ish), making the morning after a lot more pleasant and a lot less sketchy. Also, it restoring your levels means that you can start dropping on the 2nd night with the results being almost as if it was the first
(not really the point of having it, but whos complaining
)
Ive been using 5-HTP regularly for months now and i highly recommend it to all.
I usualy take 2 (always take 2 when ever you have them as its the recommended amount, just having 1 definatly isnt worth it tbh) every night 30mins/1h before I go to bed (taking a steady amount for several days in a row will improve the initial drop!) because of the sleep thing and it keeps my mood generally higher throughout the week helping me cope with stress and other such things. Come friday I have another 2 just before i go into a club, and 2 when i leave as well as the extra 2 before i go to sleep. If i dont sleep, ill have the other 2 anyway to help my recovery.
Repeat until skint 
Hope this is somewhat helpful, im bored of typing now, goodbye.
