Do NOT take L-Tryptophan, I took it for several weeks and then suddenly was in severe pain throughout my entire body. It sent me through the roof and I could barely even lie down or get up, it hurt so bad I actually screamed, couldn't help it! it did wear off after several days and thankfully Tylenol was able to take the edge off so I could function. I can never take it again, It is a shame because it helped me alot, I felt really good on it and it reduced alot of my symptoms. If you are taking it now I would stop right now, it is a ticking time bomb!

The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

If it was causing you problems, obviously you should stop it and not take it again--but that doesn't mean no one should take it. Lots of medications have potential side effects that are uncommon. Obviously for those who suffer from those side effects, they should stop, but it doesn't mean everyone else should stop also.
This one seems a particularly odd choice to use as a warning for people not to use it, because it (according to you) just caused you a lot of pain for several days. Which is obviously really bad (pain hurts), but it doesn't seem like it caused any lingering damage.

That doesn't mean it wasn't unbearable at the time. I don't think in todays age with the distance we have come with medicine, that any of our medications should have the lists of horrific side effects in them. Its almost like they are engineering the effects into the drugs. Nothing should put you in pain.
