    I am currently taking over the counter suppliments; 5-htp and GABA. I know that 5-htp affects seratonin receptors, as does psylocybin, so obviously there is going to be an ineraction.. does anyone know what this interraction is? My guess is that it would intensify the trip, but I want to be sure it's not dangerous. also does GABA interact with mushrooms? any other meds, besides MAOIs that I should avoid?

    thanks

    As far as the 5-htp is concerned I don't really think it will play much of a factor. Unlike with ecstasy that literally dumps your serotonin, psilocin/cybin are actually so structurally similar to serotonin that they are able to "trick" the receptors and bond to them, rather than just dump it out and cause the feelgood of E, thus the receptors register a stimulus in the brain accounting for the hallucinations/sensory overloads; someone correct me if I'm wrong please.

    Sounds about right from the little research I did after first reading this post.
