Riemann Zeta said:Ah, but AMT is a strong MAOI (more so than a psychedelic), so watch out for typical MAOI related side effects.
AMT is one of those weird rarities of psychedelia that I have always wanted to try but never encountered. Apparently it is also quite the effective stimulant.
AMT at antidepressant dosages will be a negligible MAOI... in fact I have my doubts that it actually ties up MAO enough to be considered an MAOI at full dosages, considering the combinations I have done with it. It is, however, a great stimulant/psychedelic... if you get the chance to try it, do. It's beautiful, my favorite recreational substance which is also fantastic for therapeutic purposes in the same manner as MDMA except it allows a much calmer, more intellectual experience.
It was used in Russia as an antidepressant... it's very effective in that regard. Daily or every-other-daily 5mg dosing can be a great way to aid in relieving depression, and after a full dose I feel a lingering antidepressant effect for 2-3 days.
