PTSD & Trauma

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 can play piano again

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...

Finally free of maintenance medication
