Introductions / One week after Ibo
« on: August 22, 2010, 05:17:10 PM »
Greetings**
My name is Cindy. I am 46 years old and one week ago I took Iboga. My life is very blessed. I have a very nice home, a wonderful, supportive, very happy wife and the best friends a person could hope for. I decided to do the treatment because I had spent most of my life being generally pissed-off for no particular reason. I had seen therapists at different times since I was 14, most of whom attributed my behavior to an as yet undiscovered "childhood trauma" and/or hormone imbalance . For many years I had been wishing for insight to the "trauma". If I could name it than I could let it go. Well, fast forward to a few months ago, my wife Jamie was researching alternative treatments for her alcoholic sister. She discovered Iboga and studied how it works on the brain. When I read about it's use for depression, it made perfect sense to me and I saw it as an answer to prayers. We arranged for the my sister-in-law's treatment. In the mean time, I was coming around to the conclusion that I wanted the treatment, too. In the end, she chickened out and I did it alone. It was the most bizarre week in my life and i have zero regrets. I am feeling a lot of emotion. I have a childlike wonderment about almost everything. I am seeing things from a re-born perspective. Physically, I feel better, too. little things like the catch in my ankle that's been there for years is gone. My head feels clear and sharp and I once again have access to my creativity. I am very excited to see how the next year unfolds.
Love & Light to you all
