5HTP works better without ECGC?

Original post in this thread

Ok, so 5HTP does wonders for me. I sleep much beetter, am much more refreshed after sleeping "only" 6 to 7 hours and have a better mood the following day. Normally I need to sleep much more for much less refreshed feeling.
But this does not happen when I take ECGC, I wake up and feel like usual - actually sleeping is much harder than. And I take 200mg of 5HTP, approx. 30 minutes before sleep. So, what is happening?
I got once Trazodone prescriped to help with my sleep and because its a slight mood booster, but even taking jsut 25mg is like super killer as I wake up groggy, sleepy and with the driest cottonmouth.

Still tho, I'm a little bit anxious because I dont want to hurt my heart by taking this much 5HTP without ECGC - but maybe nothing is happening?

Melatonin never did the trick, maybe I took not enough or too much? It was 1mg and 3mg I tried.
Never got the kind of sleep I got from 5htp

I will look into bacopa

1-3mg is till too high for most. 300mcg is really the sweet spot for melatonin.
