Ibogaine Treatment for Addiction

by admin on July 30, 2010


Our government has continuously denied its people a valuable and extraordinary treatment for physical drug addictions (and possibly other disorders) simply because that treatment has “psychedelic” effects. This treatment is a naturally occurring compound called ibogaine, which is found in the Tabernathe Iboga tree, which grows naturally in parts of Africa. If this treatment were legal, addiction would no longer be such a major problem in this country. Ibogaine has never been abused on the streets, but simply because its subjective effects are similar to those of LSD or psilocybin mushrooms, our government has outlawed it and placed it in the highest Schedule of drugs. The neurophysiological effects of ibogaine are extraordinary, research by several independent groups and even by NIDA (the National Institute for Drug Abuse) shows that Ibogaine does indeed completely eradicate the physical (and some of the mental) effects of addiction after being administered only once in some patients and no more then three times in others. Ibogaine stops recidivism in addiction. Its time we stop the unjust laws that hinder its use.

I am concerned about the state therapetic keep them in a box. Considering the urgent need that we now have to wake the fuck up and stop the corruption going on. Notice many pratitioners using language that gives the idea mental illness is biological, and psychedelic psychotherapy is a “treatment”

Well, as it is, ibogaine is more likely to be accepted because of the government research shows that truth is the end of withdrawal symptoms and stop recidivism. When other psychedelic / entheogenic have great potential, the scientific community is just now returning to their access to research, so it will take time before the community can see their regular healing powers.

I found your video – short but very powerful! I wish to link a video response to this, but I feel that you mention that ibogaine, instead of psychedelics in their diversity as a potential profound healing potential
