Actually I did try a few mg orally the first time I took it, to both test the waters for mislabeled chems or peculiar reactions and to indeed check if there was any merit to claims of anti-depressant effects.
Sure enough it worked (I honestly can't remember exactly what dose I took) it just was very subtle, much much less involving than a real full AMT experience and more functional but the afterglow kind of feeling it provided was qualitatively pretty similar to those on larger doses.
Also I must mention that I am pretty sensitive to AMT and that I have the odd tendency to get dreamy and fall asleep on it rather than getting stimulated (I never smoked it).
The afterglow / anti-depressant effect is just like this absolute relief a bit like what you can feel on the tail end of a mushroom trip. Not sure if others agree with me that those feelings are similar but IMO the feeling of joy just being alive especially if the mushroom trip was difficult, it is just incredible and very valuable.
I'm not sure at all about taking AMT on a regular basis, I don't think you would have to take it daily to maintain this effect (maybe every 3 days?)... but it doesn't seem like a good idea. Amphetamine and MDMA are not suited either to treat depression chronically (not including the acute therapeutic effects of an MDMA experience itself), and although AMT feels more reasonable and gentle it still seems much too good to be true. But to get out of a rut if you are stuck in one, yes perhaps it very well may be wonderful for it.
I think ol' Xorky had a run in with some AMT habituation and I think he would warn us about it.
