Tryphonia MAX

What is it? In a nutshell, it is L-5-hydroxytryptophan, a product derived from a seed extract.

What does it do? In technical terms, it is a metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan and an essential precursor of the biosynthesis of serotonin and melatonin.

Ah, yes, but what does it do?

I've been taking regular Tryphonia for a little while now, as it helps me stay awake and active during all my night shifts. Think of it as a far healthier version and vastly cheaper version of caffine.

I went down to the local health store to pick up a new batch and they tell me they've upgraded to the MAX version (more or less a double dosage in one pill)as it has become a very good seller. Sure, I'll buy that.

Now, when I first started to take Tryphonia, even though it is a serotonin enhancer, I seriously doubted it would all of a sudden make me euphoric like MDMA does. After all, if it did, it wouldn't be on the store shelves, now would it? As I take this new MAX version, I didn't really think much of it.

A funny thing begins to happen an hour or two later, however...

The music in my headphones as I walk to work begins sounding more energetic. Okay. That's fine. Sometimes with regular Tryphonia, it would happen in little bursts as walking is decent exercise in itself. Nothing to pay much attention to, right?

As I arrive at work, however, I notice something that only occurs when I'm under the influence of an MDMA-assisted serentonin rush: lockjaw!

I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. That sudden sensation of the jaw freezing and the need to grind the teeth. Granted, it wasn't severe, but noticable enough for me to feel the urge to pop some gum into my mouth.

I get to work and time begins to stretch. With how busy my job can be, the first four hours have a tendancy to rush by, sometimes with a feeling of having no time to get the tasks required finished. Not this time, however. Despite overwhelming odds, not only are my tasks finished, but in under 3 HOURS!!! How the hell did THAT happen!!??

I've also noticed my body temperature's increased a little. Was I working like a madman and not even noticing it? How strange.

All in all, this experience lasted five hours, and off of one mere pill!

Now, I wouldn't go calling Tryphonia MAX some sort of new, legal, cheaper ecstacy cap. As I said, the effects seem to be a milder version of what MDMA tends to do (at least what it does to me). However, if one pill can do this... :smoke1:

I thought tryphonia max was just another brand of 5HTP.

do you know if it has any pure tryptophan in it? As far as I know, it's only availlable by prescription, but does the same thing 5htp does, except it's a hell of alot more powerful.

1 pill doing that to you does sound pretty bizarre though. Maybe it was just a certain mixture of chemicals that happened to be in your system at the time.....

hmm
well I haven't heard anything about it getting banned

but I dunno... there's gotta be way better stuff than ephedrine to use for an energy boost.

I find it just makes me sketchy. I hate it.

It's pretty much just 5htp, though as a double dosage in a single pill, it could be more pure, just not quite enough to keep it on this side of the counter.

As for just the one pill doing that, I did find it kind of odd as well. I've actually just taken one as I go into work tonight. My sense of awareness still feels more acute and time feels slower as before(*whew*! That Canucks games was INTENSE!!!!) but no lockjaw... at least, nothing wanting me to grind the teeth.
