Oh god okay I'll definitely remember that. So far I've never used DMT with an MAOI but in a week or two I will be, so I think just to be safe I will steer clear of the 5-htp altogether when using DMT whether an MAOI is involved or not. I'm actually beginning to worry that I might have serotonin syndrome right now. Since I smoked my last dose of DMT like 3 or 4 days ago, I have had diarrhea everyday, tremors, mild psychosis, anxiety, paranoia, persisting mild visuals, can barely sleep, headaches, loss of appetite among other things. And that was without any MAOIs but just the DMT and 5-HTP. Do you think this is possible? I'm sure part of it is also that it's been 3 years since I've used any psychedelics. I've never felt so different for so long after only smoking a average sized hit.
"I find that taking 100mg 5htp for a few days before dmt makes it incredibly more euphoric and giggly. As for after that I just felt it stopped working on me but it might have been helping."
Yeah I agree. My recent DMT experience was certainly still very enjoyable even though the visual effects were very dulled . The experience lasted longer and gave me a long lasting bliss that seemed different and more pronounced and longer then any other DMT experience I've had in the past.
I think most people would agree with you that 5-HTP doesn't help them. I really do believe that it helps me with depression though. If I forget to take it I do notice. I'm glad you brought up serotonin syndrome because that's what this feels like. Luckily it's definitely a real light case of it (if that is even what's happening)as I've had it way worse than this a long time ago. I really just wanna come fully back to reality at this point and quit feeling sick.
