aMT and social anxiety

I hope this doesn't count as a "what should I take" question.
I'm going to a social get together tomorrow with some nice people. I have been having some trouble lately with social interaction, because of some anxiety (I think caused by weed, but psychedelics could have a part in it as well), and was hoping that taking a small bit of aMT could help me. This because I have aMT in possession and read in "Tihkal" about aMT and/or aET being used as an anti-depressant.
But I actually have no clue what I'm getting myself into, and wanted to ask someone with a more educated opinion before taking drugs so carelessly. Would you advice against it?
 
Definitely the right drug! I'd suggest smoking it in small portions over the space of an hour or two, to prevent nausea - as with many psychedelics, there is some anxiety on coming-up - and it is a long-ish come-up, unfortunately - but once you're up you'll be on the right drug. Go for it!
 
I sometimes feel a bit shaky on small doses, but this totally goes away as I push the dosage higher -- I don't measure it though; just smoke myself happy over a few hours until I'm where I want to be. I know other people who have similar effects at too-small a dose (which 10mg may not be).
 
It's a good one, isn't it??!! "Everything MDMA was trying to be" is the best, and most accurate description I have heard.
 
Sounds great, thanks a lot.
I should´ve mentioned that I already did roughly 45 mg aMT 2 weeks ago at a festival, mixed with a drop of acid and a lot of weed. I usually tend to keep longer time spawns between 2 doses of the same drug, especially since I also use many others every once in a while. Would you still not advice against it?

^ A single 50mg aMT trip with my best friend permanently cured my social anxiety so I certainly think it'll at least hold it off until the event's over.

That sounds VERY promising. Isn't 50mgs a strong trip? What was your ROA and how long lasted the experience?
 
ROA was oral, and of the powder was lost in the process of dosing so it's technically < 50mg, but not by much, maybe like 40-45mg at the lowest, but probably closer to 50 still.

It was a strong trip but not in the usual tryptamine sense of "Oh crap what's going on why are the walls eating my cupboard!?" - but rather very visual, very euphoric, and extremely profound.

I'd agree if it weren't for that putting down MDMA a little - as I really respect MDMA as a wonderful drug. I think MDMA's therapeutic potential is overrated though and something like aMT would be a MUCH much better alternative for this purpose, as it is much cleaner, the loved up feelings are more natural and from yourself rather than just "Hay I'm mashed I love you guys!!!!111" - truly a magical experience.

For reference my 2nd aMT trip was only 2 days after my first one (though significant tolerance was noted, as I took 75mg and it wasn't anywhere near as strong as the previous 50mg visually etc) - but it's important to remember, aMT is a serotonin releaser, and as such should cause receptor down-regulation. Down-regulation reverses over time but it can take 3-4+ weeks sometimes to fully recover, so personally I'd apply a similar "one month rule" to aMT as we tend to suggest for MDMA and other serotonin releasers.

I think in this case aMT is much more forgiving than MDMA but at the very least keeping your trips a month apart will make them more special. I mean, I myself think aMT is the best drug I've tried hands down out of ~42 or so drugs now, but I've only taken it those two times, despite having 100mg sitting in my desk - I haven't found the right time to do it as I want to make each trip just as magical as the first two.

I read that too late.
So I smoked 3 cigarettes each containing roughly 2 mg of amt over the course of 3 hours. No social anxiety was felt the entire evening. Wasn't very talkative yet, maybe I'll never be. But it definitely helped. Good stuff!! I´m very cranky ( easily upset, tired, I guess it's the serotonin down regulation) today.
I don't think I'll do this again, using drugs to improve my social interaction. Even if it helped, I have a feeling it would create an inability to improve my social skills without drugs, if you know what I mean. And I feel bad for acting like an asshole to my parents today.

Kinda off-topic, how does the one month rule work if I want to use 6-apb or MDMA in 2 or 3 weeks? Better to wait at least a month after my aMT cigs?
 
I think it is the weed too. I have tried it a few times and didn't like it at all. I felt anxious, paranoid and hungry. And then on top of the bad weed trips, the chemical stayed in my system for a couple days after. I wouldn't feel high all the time the next day or two, but it would come and go. I would be walking down the street or something trivial, and I would feel totally high for a while. Then it would go away - and then come back again. It just must take that chemical a long time to really get out of your system.
