My friend attributes Ibogaine via clinic with saving his life. He was an addict for years then went and lived at one of the clinics for a while. I think they had some arrangement where he could work off his treatment cost by helping facilitate the clinic and making testimonial videos. He would go back every year or so for a follow-up. By the time I met him he'd been sober for like 4-7 years. He ended up relapsing and dying from overdose a few years ago, it was tragic, such a loss. To me, in retrospect, Ibogaine failed him. But I do not know the reason he relapsed or for how long he'd been using again. Perhaps it really was a life-changing opportunity for him and something else just overpowered that.
I wonder sometimes if Ibogaine wasn't just a replacement substance for his escaping. He toured South America the last 3 years before passing, living in the jungle and taking a lot of 5-meo, bufo, ayahuasca, peyote, etc. One would think he'd seen the light a hundred times. But something was different about him the last time he returned. Maybe he found other drugs out there too, seemed like he was agitated and hiding something.

the biggest thing is to stop withdrawls and be able to function without as that allows people to seperate themselves from the lifestyle and people using. staying sober is obv hardest part and very very small % of people don't relapse be it booze or otherwise. thats why people go to AA for decades as need support to acually not use again. ive heard this before though people stop or go on methadone for years and come back much more opiate nieve and dont have the 10 years of tollerance that protects them from OD. and also with more and more fent on the market doesnt help. those folks can take enough fent to kill 50-100 people dead in 1 go and do that many times a day.
such a shame but it happens every hour of the day. would be nice if law would just allow more shipments of H to get in flood the market so cheaper and better for folks. or better yet opium or smokable half acetilated tar. the short acting fent is just horrible thing for so many reasons.

I’ve learned that it’s very much recommended that you visit a doctor and have your heart and liver function checked before going into anything from a moderate dose upward. The root bark of Iboga and even ibogaine itself are quite toxic, and because of the wide spectrum of effects it has on the body, it can have bad interactions with a lot of different drugs. People have been known to die from strong doses of Iboga.
So basically, be as healthy as possible going into it.
And search the forums for old Iboga threads. There is one I read recently that is very informative but possibly leaves out some of the documented health risks because of how old it is. I’ll leave a link to it if I find it
