> I recently procured a bottle of 5htp for depression.

> I took my first dose before bed last night and had the strangest night of sleep in my life: I woke up several times in a semi dream-like state (lucid?) and had paralysis! I couldn't move, it was really odd. I had the strangest dreams, in all of them I was flying.

> Anyways, anyone knowing if the purported effects are true, please respond.that's great! good to know such a natural remedy can have such big effects even if they aren't benificial. Hopefully it can actually work for depression. I plan to try it soon.
