Fantastic Treatment to Stop Using Drugs
Tabernanthe iboga

DOSE:
5 g oral Tabernanthe iboga (capsule)
BODY WEIGHT: 200 lb
Taking Iboga was a shock treatment. I was in bed for 2 days because I couldn't function motor-wise.

Physically, I was spastic, so no driving cars, nor even walking. Taking a trip to the bathroom was an ordeal. But it cleansed out my system of toxins I'd been carrying for many years. I puked and shit them all out. Not stuff I'd had for days, but stuff I'd had for like tens of years in my kidneys, lymphs, muscles and what not. I got totally purified.

Psychically I was submitted to intense hallucinations. Thousands of images with inherent messages appeared to me and I was asked to deal with them one by one. I gave an answer, in words or visual telepathy, and then it's on to the next one. This happened every five seconds for hours. And I couldn't remember what the former image/message was about, at all, it was impossible. I instead had to give my concentration to the image at hand and my answer got classified somewhere in my brain where it belongs.

I've come away from this shock treatment a much better person than I was. I know that I will never take any sort of drug again, nor have I even had a beer. I am also very careful to eat sparingly and think intelligently, and I feel like a great calm has taken possession of me and I can relate to others in a fairer way.

In the beginning I started to see the souls of ancestors appear and come to me, especially the soul of my mother that came sky-diving from up above, perhaps from the sun, and traversed my body with all her energy. I also was confronted to some problems I have had with some individuals in my life, like my sisters and my former boss and his family in Canada, and I resolved the problem I had with them and have learned to protect myself better from resentments or regrets that I had harbored against them. Some other individuals I had long forgotten appeared to me as well.

The whole trip lasted 15 hours. Then I stayed in bed for the next day just to recover my strength though I still did not have an appetite to eat anything, except drink water and little Ginger ice tea. Finally, today, on the third day since ingestion of the Iboga, I got out of bed at 11 am and have been feeling absolutely wonderful ever since.

An Iboga clinic in South Africa sent me the 5 grams of iboga powder, which I put in 8 empty gelatin capsules. They are very serious, sell the real thing, and are there to help with advice.

This ain't no easy ecstasy trip. This is up there with LSD, but with an intense therapeutic value. It's absolutely fantastic in its positive post treatment effects. I did drugs on and off for forty years, and now thanks to this incredibly therapeutic treatment I know I will never take drugs again.

I send you my wishes for love of life, grace of spirit, and health of body and soul.

All the best,
Henrik
