Heroin addiction stole a decade from me. I missed my daughter's first steps, her first words, her first day of school. MindScape gave me a real shot at being present for the rest. The ibogaine treatment was medically pre...
My husband was diagnosed seven years ago and the progression was steady. Freezing episodes, shuffling gait, the mask face that broke my heart. We heard about MindScape through another Parkinson's family in our support gr...
Alcohol for 14 years. The trajectory is familiar but living it is different from reading about it. I lost a business, a marriage, the trust of people I loved. I was in outpatient treatment when someone mentioned ibogaine...
The sports injury was legitimate. I need to say that because I've been dismissed before. I was prescribed Vicodin for 5 years and the dependency happened gradually and then completely. By the end I was buying extra on th...
I was a binge drinker, not daily, but the damage was the same. By the time I came to MindScape I had more failed sobriety attempts than I could count. The longest stretch was 11 months. The pre-treatment psychological wo...
I'm 22 and started using fentanyl at 17. Cheap and available and it obliterated everything fast. Track marks on both arms when I arrived, stealing from my parents, a minor drug charge pending. The cost of coming here was...
Went to MindScape eight months ago for Parkinson's. The low-dose protocol was ten days of small daily ibogaine doses, no psychoactive effects, continuous cardiac monitoring, neurological assessments twice a day. By day t...
Getting off methadone was harder than anything I'd been through in recovery. 13 years at high doses. The standard taper is measured in months or years and the withdrawal that comes anyway is relentless. I found MindScape...
Depression since my early twenties. 16 years of it, managed imperfectly. Every psychiatrist I saw wanted to try a different combination. Some helped somewhat. Nothing was lasting. I came to MindScape after reading that i...
I'm a first responder and the cumulative exposure caught up with me. My relationships were suffering. I was irritable, hypervigilant, unable to relax anywhere. Sleep was impossible without medication. A colleague from my...
I'm a survivor of childhood abuse that I kept buried for years. The PTSD had been running my life for years. Multiple medication trials helped some but never got to the root of it. A colleague who had done ibogaine for a...
I came to Cozumel expecting the worst and hoping for something I couldn't name. The medical staff at MindScape ran a proper cardiac workup before approving my case. The session was 22 hours. Honestly brutal in the physic...
Postpartum that became something else entirely and never lifted. Two hospitalizations after attempts. My psychiatrist and I had exhausted most options. A family member found MindScape while researching psychedelic-assist...
Started kratom for anxiety and within 4 years I was taking 20 grams a day just to function. The online forums told me it wasn't addictive and I believed that far longer than I should have. When I tried to stop I had symp...
16 years of daily drinking. I was a high-functioning version until I wasn't anymore. Tried naltrexone, Antabuse, AA, inpatient. Something always brought me back. My sister found MindScape and paid for the deposit before...
I taught piano for thirty years and Parkinson's took that away from me. The tremor and rigidity in my hands made it impossible. My students became my former students. That loss motivated me to try MindScape's low-dose ib...
Got into fentanyl through buying what I thought was oxy off a friend. 2 years later I was using just to stay out of withdrawal. The sickness from fentanyl is relentless, sweats, restless legs that don't stop, vomiting, b...
Social anxiety that had become disabling for 8 years. On multiple SSRIs with partial results. Anxiety managed but not resolved, and medication side effects were their own burden. My therapist suggested researching ibogai...
Early-onset Parkinson's at 51. I was skeptical of anything outside the standard levodopa track but my wife found MindScape while researching GDNF and ibogaine. The protocol here for neurological conditions is completely...
Got into fentanyl through fentanyl patches that got out of hand. 3 years later I was using just to stay out of withdrawal. The sickness from fentanyl is relentless, sweats, restless legs that don't stop, vomiting, bone p...
80mg of methadone daily for 9 years. The clinic kept recommending I lower my dose but every attempt ended with withdrawal severe enough to derail everything. I'd given up on ever being off methadone completely. MindScape...
Generalized anxiety disorder for 11 years. On benzos for years and then couldn't stop them either. Anxiety managed but not resolved, and medication side effects were their own burden. My therapist suggested researching i...
Parkinson's took my facial expressions away gradually. My grandchildren thought I was angry or sad all the time when really I just couldn't make my face do what my brain wanted. That's what brought me to MindScape more t...
Started in college and never really stopped, just changed how I managed it. Cocaine addiction is different from opioids, no physical withdrawal in the same sense, but the psychological craving is relentless. Tried NA, in...
