XTC use and 5-htp/alkali

[notts.pirate]

SWIM hasnt had XTC for at least 4months, before this time SWIM was a heavy, very heavy user (was taking 5-6 every thurs, fri, sat, sun and normally more) now SWIM, as everyone wants the 'magic' back and has been reading (and not really understanding) posts about 5-htp and alkali substitutes, SWIM is planning on getting some more pills soon

should swim try taking some 5-htp capsules before the event ? or neutralise the acid in his body ?

would either of these combined with the fact he hasnt had pills in a while help with getting a good roll ??

any comments/ideas welcome
