> tryptophan gives them a "hangover"
I had the same problem - simple to fix - only take the tryptophan at bed time and be sure on an _empty_ stomach. I take mine with a bit of hot chocolate - works wonders for my dysthymia/limbic-add .
If you still have hangover in the AM try reducing the dosage some. -- the empty stomach is important for two reasons - 1 you want it out of you system in the morning and 2 tryptophan crosses the blood-brain barrier competitively.
