Default 5htp and visual hallucinations?

I took a capsule of 5-htp last night before I went to bed. In the middle of the night, I woke up and noticed something really strange: an enormous origami crane floating a foot above my head. I reached out to grab it and realized that it was not real. I went back to sleep, not wanting to see more weird shit. I have a feeling that this was triggered by the 5-htp.

Yea i get some realistic dream-like hallucinations when i'm still in that dreamy state, even when im not on drugs.

But... L-tryptophan (5-htp) metabolizes into serotonin and melatonin in the body. Then melatonin turns into pinoline, and then pinoline turns into 5-MeO-DMT, and then that turns into DMT.

Just thought I would throw that out there. Probably not the reason why.

Hmmmmm..... I don't think 5-HTP would bring on hallucinations like that. I take it (100mg 3 times a day) and besides the over all mood lift the only thing I've noticed is my dreams seem much more vivid. Could you have just been dreaming and thought you were hallucinating?

Sorry if what i said doesn't make sense im pretty baked right now.

Yea, could have been a false awakening. It's probable.

It sounds possible that you were still dreaming. I've had incredibly realistic dreams from the stuff.

Ya, and then the DMT binds with H20 and becomes DMTH20 which everyone knows is the chemical equivalent to LSD.

Finally the LSD turns into MDMA which turns into H20 which you pee out.

So ya you probably just got caught somewhere between the DMT and the LSD phase.

I've heard about the presence of LSD-20 in the urine, but I didn't know about all that other stuff.

Can you cite your sources? Doesn't sound very believable to me. Tryptamine (DMT) -> Phenylthylamine (MDMA) -> Tryptamine (LSD)? Da fuck?
