I have ordered some 5HTP online, but ordered the 100mg capsules. Would it be okay to start with one 100mg capsule every day instead of breaking it into two 50mg doses? Also, should I stop the L-tryp. entirely while taking the 5HTP. I also usually take a 150mg L-Theanine every day as well.

I was on the fence about it, but decided to attend my niece's 3rd bday party with the family. I decided to take a xanax to help with the anxiety, but did okay. Managed to make it through wearing earplugs and staying away from the screaming kids in the basement. I feel okay this morning and think I escaped a setback. A few weeks ago I was exhausted the day following an event like that. While painfully slow, maybe I am making some progress.
