Muscle relief experienced
I take 5-HTP along with GABA before bed, which results in sound sleep and a stable mood. To my surprise, since starting this combination, I've noticed that my legs no longer hurt and feel much softer after training. It effectively relaxes my body, which has been a remarkable change for me.

Gradual improvement
2 people found this helpful
After struggling with depression and obsessive thoughts for over two years, I opted for 5-HTP after stopping antidepressants. At first, I experienced nausea and worsening of my depression but learned to adjust my dosage by splitting capsules. With time, my mood stabilised, and obsessive thoughts lessened. Now, I take a whole capsule daily under the tongue and have combined it with other supplements. My overall condition is markedly improved, although it doesn't induce extreme happiness — more of a calm state.

No effects noted
I didn’t feel any effect from the supplement, so I gave it to a friend. Unfortunately, she experienced severe kidney pain, and further issues followed. I advise those with kidney problems to avoid this supplement altogether.

Side effects noted

I experienced insomnia, nausea, and vomiting while taking this drug. Initially, I had plenty of energy, but insomnia set in, affecting my sleep routine despite various dosing times. Interestingly, I had one restful night where I slept for 12 hours without waking. However, I struggled with muscle pain, headaches, and digestive issues when I took it on an empty stomach. Although I did notice a reduction in my appetite, I can't wholeheartedly recommend it due to the many side effects I experienced, including concerns over safety based on available data.

Stomach issues encountered
My husband found that his appetite decreased, but after I took it on an empty stomach, I suffered intense stomach pain, as if a kidney stone were pressing against my intestines, leading to a laxative effect. My appetite remained unchanged, and I wonder if a smaller dose might work better for me.
