You mentioned 5g of tryptophan? Wow, that seems like a lot. According to a book I'm using for treatment right now, their highest tryptophan dose recommended is 6 - 500mg capsules, or 3g. I am currently taking 50mg 5HTP 3 times a day. It is only numbing me, not fixing whatever is wrong. The book says 50mg 5htp is equivalent to 500mg tryptophan, and I have some, so I think I'll try switching over and see if there is a difference. I've heard some people can't tell the difference, while other people notice a big difference.
TCAs...I really like them, except that I can absolutely not handle the side effects.
