Melatonin and trip timing
    #3832303 -

I usually find that the best time for me to eat shrooms is at midnight. By 2:00-3:00am I am peaking, and I'm comming down just in time to watch the sun come up and start the beautiful new day with a pleasant glow.

I was looking into some mind enhancing supplements I could take and I found this info on Erowid (God bless Erowid!) about melatonin:

"Melatonin levels are low during the day. At sunset, the cessation of light triggers neural signals which stimulate the pineal gland to begin releasing melatonin. This rise continues for hours, eventually peaking around 2 a.m. (3 a.m. for the elderly) after which it steadily declines to minimal levels by morning. The delay in timing and decrease in intensity of the melatonin pulse is a manifestation of the aging process."

Does anyone here think that the fact that 2-3am is the peak of melatonin release could have anything to do with the increase in the quality of my trips? What are the reactions of psilocybin and melatonin?

I posted this in Trip tips also...

No one, at least AFAIK, knows for sure. However there is speculation that melatonin and serotonin (5-HTP) do increase the intensity of psychedelic experiences.

Melatonin also has a testoterone inhibiting action. Dont let your kids sleep in too late.
