Trip-potentiating chemicals and supplements

HELO... I was thinking about a few things.
a) I've heard many people say that if you take Vitamin C, you will get more visuals. This could be placebo. Or is it? Vitamin C is essential in the production of certain neurochemicals, such as serotonin. Psilocybin simulates a flood of serotonin, but it also stimulates the release of other neurochemicals.
b) Going along with this thinking, could other supplements increase the trip? I'm not interested in the restrictions of an MAOI, but there are other chemicals necessary in producing neurotransmitters involved in tripping.
Some of the supplements of interest: L-Tyrosine, 5-HTP, ...
Any comments? Does anyone have experience with these supplements?
Once I get my own supply going, I'll be more able to try different supplement combinations to find out for myself.

OJ works for me. Even though people say it doesn't do anything it always seems to bring my trip up. maybe placebo but I can always tell whether something is fucking me up or not. Like I used to have many friends who pop pills and always say how most of the pills they take get them higher then weed but when I would take the same amount I barely had a buzz.

Over the years OJ and vitamin C has always had great affects on my trips. I notice it with anything high in citric acid. It might be placebo but A few experiences make me think not. One in particular was when a friend and I ate 6 hits of blotter each. Two hours later with no effect we decided to call it a night. He went home and went to bed. I decided that it couldn't hurt to eat a C or two as a last ditch effort. I really didn't expect it to help at all. Chewing that C and getting ready for bed I was all of a sudden in cartoon land. It was not a very intense mental trip but extremely visual. I sat staring out the front window for the next 5 hours. My car magically had a sweet lightning-bolt paint job and kept morphing from a long low rider looking car into a short VW Bug lookin thing and back again.
Placebo or not it works for me.

Not interested in the restrictions with MAOIs? Dude, you are seriously missing out. Shrooms with syrian rue is very different. I've done it many times and what I always do is eat breakfast, and then I eat a small light meal and then four hours later I start. As I come down I usually eat a little something like white rice and vegetables, and I've never had any problem. Vitamin C may or may not alter the trip, but syrian rue will. I'm surprised that so few people on this site seem to be into MAOIs it's really weird. I'd have way less enthusiasm for mushrooms if I couldn't get the MAOI trip with them too.

Onced i tripped with MAOIs in me only b/c i didn't know that i had them in my system, i was taking the wort for depression. I tripped for a long 7 hours instead of my usually paltry three. i only had a gramme and half but i felt like i was on an eighth, and defintely up to level four. I'm actually curious about mixing MAOIs in.

I thought GF juice only worked with perscriptions drugs and other orally ingested pills. Does it work with shrooms too?

Syrian Rue is absolutely awesome if your looking for spiritual enlightenment. You will have longer, more intense, more memorable trips. I don't go without it on 80% of my mushroom trips, the other 20% means i want some sleep that night.
I might try the melatonin thing tonight.
