5-HTP

It's been discussed before and I've read some of the old posts about it, but I was wondering if those of you who have taken it long term still find it helping? What about side effects?

I don't take it everyday, but I still use 50 mg? to fall asleep sometimes. It is still effected to fall asleep, but I sometimes get weird dreams that wake me up and then it is hard to fall asleep again. Still a fan though.

Thanks for the reply Steady! I read that some people take it during the day also, but if it makes you sleepy then I better just stick with nighttime for now.

Hopefully more people will chime in. I know there are several here on it
