Anyone had experiences with iboga ?

[herghly]

Is iboga any good for consciousness work ?

[Parki]

@herghly no idea, but in my personal experience the substance(or me) is very prone to bad trips.
People report that bad iboga trip is way worse than say how bad it could get on mushrooms.
The trip is 24-36 hours long and you could have problems with cardio.

It's great for consciousness work. Probably as good if not better than anything else because of how deep it goes.

If you are generally healthy (no heart, lung or liver problems, there may be some other you'd need to consult a provider about) it is safe.  Reputable places do medical screenings these days.

The reason people have bad trips is that iboga really works.  It flushes all your mental crap out.

One may have a bad trip, but it has beneficial after-effects (i.e. short-term pain for long-term gain.)

Just go to a reputable place, don't try it at home.  Do it with a shamanic provider.  (Frankly, I think doing it on your own is nuts, but different strokes etc.)

Do not take Iboga by yourself, and unless you're a veteran of psychedelics.

You could seriously harm yourself otherwise.

It's like you're asking to play with a live hand grenade.

Yeah, from what I've read, it's the real deal as far as psychedelics go. It will get you there.

6 hours of shrooms already feels like a lifetime lol

[PsiloPutty]

@DoubleYou    I kind of agree. 

[JustinS]

Yeah, if done under someone who knows what they're doing. It's quite difficult to walk 5 feet without feeling like you're going to fall. 

[Parki]

@DoubleYou now imagine what a bad trip would be like)))

[Parki]

@JustinS what was the dose?
was it a good trip?
in my experience all my iboga trips are half good half bad.

[JustinS]

@Parki Not sure of measurement but 3 scoops of powder in the mouth. Did it with the Bwiti from Gabon. Its no where near the initiation dose (something like 20 scoops).

Trip was gnarly and pretty terrifying. 12 hour rollercoaster. It was only good for me ? never forget.
