3 things about getting Clean Part 2

Anyone who has done drugs for a long time knows getting clean is not easy, and the withdrawals are only a small part. Once you find what you want to be sober for, you are only at the beginning of the journey of staying clean. First, you have to deal with Cravings and Withdrawals. Many know this as one of the worst experiences you can ever go through. Then you have to break the mental need to be messed up all the time. A daily struggle that left untreated can take months or years to get through. Finally, you have to learn to be real and raw, not using drugs to solve your problems. Mountain Climb of addiction

Staying high all the time is impossible. For a while though it seems like you can really do it. Like a mountain climber, the higher you get the more pressure it is on your body. The harder you have to work to get higher. The further you have to come back down. All just to keep that buzz going so you don't have to deal with reality. The song Habits (Stay High) does a great job of expressing this need from the loss of a relationship. For some people, it is that loss in life. For many, it's PTSD or trauma and depression from life events. Sometimes life screws you via medical issues. No matter the reason, it comes down to not wanting to think or feel. Now I can hear many of your minds screaming out, "wait that sounds like the third thing you mentioned." Your right they are similar. When it comes down to it the two are only different because one deals with the past, and one present and future. To successfully deal with the future you must be able to deal with your past, not just move on or get over it. kermit the frog passed out drunk

Knowing this it is clear why Ibogaine can be so powerful in its ability to get people clean. For 50 years, Ibogaine has had a reputation for helping people deal with their issues. Just look at research done in the 60's and again in the 90's. My favorite is in the 1960's, one of the two areas of research occurred at the same time. The work of Psychiatrist Claudio Naranjo and the psychologist Leo Zeff. Between them, over seven hundred patients were treated for various psychiatric conditions with Ibogaine. These doctors determined that Ibogaine was the most valuable drug they had ever used in the treatment of psychiatric disease.

Ibogaine deals with this so well, when people come for treatment at the Ibogaine Clinic. Especially those that suffer from trauma or depression we tell them "you may see a wall or a door. Many times it is very dark, you have to not be afraid and just break through. If you do, for a split second will see something you don't want to. Something your mind does not want to face, and it has been causing you problems. However, with Ibogaine you will only see it for a second. Your mind will see it for what it really is. Realizing that it no longer is you and has no effect on your life it pushes it out. Clearing it from being a problem." Modern brain science shows that this is effective. Because each time your mind pulls on a memory it stores it with more information. Meaning that each you remembered it in the past you put it back with more emotion. This means the memory is causing more trouble for you than it was before you remembered. Think back to when I talked about how withdrawals can be built up to be more than they actually are in your mind. Pair of glasses

We are not saying that Ibogaine will solve all your issues. In fact, we recommend people all the time to go and see someone they can talk to. David Dardashti and I both go to see someone. It's an important part of maintaining mental health. Ibogaine can make the process much easier. Opening doors that have been closed so long that may normally take one or two years of therapy to open up. Many people at the clinic open up to us about having been molested or abused. Things they have never been able to tell anyone else, even their closest family and friends. It's not because we are amazing therapists (but we do work with an amazing therapist). It is because Ibogaine breaks the door down, allowing them to move through the problem and on with your life. Even though Ibogaine does not make every little thing in your life ok. It gives you a huge boost making the habit of being high all the time old hat. You are equipped with new tools. It is like upgrading from stone age chisels and rocks to modern power tools.
