Curious if anyone here has tried this stuff - it's a legal OTC supplement available at most nature stores, GNC, etc.
I've heard that it can reduce the "hangover" one experiences after taking Kratom; I'm wondering if it'll reduce my urge to daisy chain kratom doses for weeks / months / years on end...
The Kratom got me away from opiates quite well. So well, in fact, that if I don't take it about 4-5 times a day, I experience unpleasant withdrawl symptoms. Naturally, I'm not against taking a foreign substance for kicks
but no one really knows what the long-term effects of Kratom intake / addiction are, and I'm not sure I want my name at the top of the case-study.
Maybe I can swap my kratom addiction for a 5-htp addiction?
I feel like an entheogenic ping-pong ball, but I don't remember what it's like to be off the table completely (actually, I do remember - it was miserable). Clean living is overrated, but it's better than the threat of "assuming room temperature" prematurely, I suppose.
Kratom also kicks in wicked desire to smoke ciggys for me, so perhaps if I could trim back, I could quit smoking again (I had quit for 3 years, but I was also addicted to painkillers then too).
But I digress... curious to see if anyone had tried the 5-htp (it's similar to tryptophan, a precursor to seratonin, etc).
