how is low-dose AMT?

^Serotonin Syndrome while tripping on LSD - sounds like something I don't really want to experience. That is quite odd though, that it would happen with that combo. I suppose I've been really lucky so far, since I've combined so many things with venlafaxine, including very high doses of 2C-T-2 (supposedly an MAOI), many times intravenously. I've reduced the dose of my SNRI because I'm trying to withdraw, so I might give aMT a whirl soon (low-dose to be on the safe side).
 
Reading this thread tweaked my interest in AMT. I've only ever taken it in doses of 20 to 30mg where it is definitely more than a mood enhancer and I've always classed it as a full-on psychedelic, so I'd never thought of a low-dose regimen before. As I was having the mid-week blues after a weekend mdma session I thought that a bit of mood elevation wouldn't be a bad thing, so I dug my stash out from the back of the fridge and weighed out some 2.5 mg doses into capsules for later use. After I had made up a few I dabbed the residual powder from the scale and spatula (less than 2.5mg, but waste not, want not) and got prepared for the long wait.

I actually felt shift in perception after only 20 minutes which I have never had so quickly with AMT before, but then I have always swallowed it in capsules and by dabbing such a small amount it would have been absorbed in my mouth. Some hours later I took a 2.5 mg capsule and by the evening my mood was certainly elevated. From feeling somewhat irritable and lacking in motivation (due to the mdma at the weekend) I became chatty and outgoing and when someone suggested going to a club I was right on to it. I danced my tits off to psytrance for a couple of hours (I'd also consumed a couple of Mojitos by now) and honestly felt like I had had a dab of mdma. After the club I joined some friends of friends whom I normally find hard work and spent an hour chatting away to them and cracking jokes.

I intend to repeat this experience to make sure that it wasn't a one-off but it has made me completely re-evaluate AMT. I'd always thought of it in the context of tripping, and the long duration was a problem for me as I rarely have the time to enjoy a nine hour session. However I now see that it has potential on many more levels.
 
I've only taken aMT a couple times at 10mg & at 5mg with mxe. aMT was sublingual at 10mg, in small 1 or 2mg doses & I found that it did indeed bring some mood uplift & increased energy. When I reach to 10mg I stopped & a few hours later reached a subtle tryptamine headspace, vagulely psychedelic which was probably enhanced a bit by the spliff I smoked.

The 5mg sublingual & mxe at 7mg insufflated was long lasting & subtly pleasant.

I've never taken a psychedelic dose of aMT & am curious to do so, perhaps when spring comes to London I'll give it a whirl.
 
does anyone know about its MAOI properties at lower doses, or if i should worry about it when having tianeptine in my system?

i'm on day 5 of tianeptine, but i plant to try a possible 5mg dose for social enhancement tomorrow. i could just not take tianeptine that day, especially since it has such a short half-life, but i also don't want to interrupt my tianeptine routine.
 
I did another testing of low doses yesterday and found my sweet spot. 2.5 mg at 9.30 am put me in a very positive mood throughout the day with no unwelcome side effects. Another 2.5 mg at 4.00 pm pushed it up a notch and made for a very pleasant evening without it being obvious to everyone that I was 'on something'. Music appreciation was intensified and the urge to dance had to be satisfied. Empathy was increased and I felt very sociable. I ate around 8.00 pm and really enjoyed the food. Sleep around midnight after a spliff was not a problem.

After the second dose I was aware of the effects coming in small waves. One minute I'd be sitting talking the next I'd be up dancing around (this was before I went out for the evening). This staged dosing seems ideal for a normal social day/evening, if I planned a big night out I'd maybe take the 5mg in one hit in late afternoon. In terms of mood elevation I'd compare this to low-dose mdma but without the euphoria, so a less messy feeling.

Big thanks to TimeKeeper for starting this thread and helping me discover another side of AMT. :)
 
OP, I think you could achieve those effects with low dose AMT. But do not discount high dose experiences. 35mg+ AMT is my definition of magic. <3
