"Wide Awake from 5HTP?" , Mon 16 Sep 06:38

I took 5HTP and I never felt better. I laughed more than I can remember and was on top of the world.

However, I noticed that I get insomnia when I take the herb. Has anyone else experienced this? It was horrible and I'm wondering if anyone else has insomnia and what they did about it? 5HTP does miracles, but I would hate to stop taking it because of this. I took 50mg in the morning.

Also, I noticed that my serotonin level dropped... actually crashed right around midnight, when I had the worst insomnia. Before I was taking 25mg at night, but that caused me to be awake too.

Any advice?

Hi, I would take Valerian Root for the insomnia. You can buy it wherever they sell herbs.
