So I've decided that seeing as how next week is SB and my roommates will be gone, I would have my best friend come over and trip sit for me while I try to embark on a visual spirit journey, a quest to better understand myself, my thought patterns, and my behaviors. We have discussed possibly questions to be asked, if I'm conscious enough to respond, and we have set perameters for emergency situations and what would be considered an emergency (eyes rolling back in head, seizing, etc.). I've decided that if at any point anxiety takes over, I will ride it out, as this has worked many times with previous psychedelix. I've never felt more anxious to try a chemical in my life, but I am expecting profound positive outlooks that will remain with me forever... And for you nay sayers about the price, you can't put a price on such an amazing experience in my eyes, well you can... But you know what I mean, =P. I plan on listening to Shpongle for the entire trip as I own their every album. =] Look for the trip report here in 3-5 days.

Don't think Shpongle is a good idea but let us know how it went...

I decided to take 1gram of ibogaine HCL and I had the most personal inside journey I have ever had. I weight 190 lbs... The length of the experience was 3 days, 12 hours of immobility with the most intense and realistic hallucinations I have ever encountered. There were times when I cried, times when I laughed, times when I was completely scared, and times when I was at peace. I learned so many things about myself that otherwise would've taken me years to look back and say "I can't believe I did that". It really helped me come to terms with myself and sense I have found the best girlfriend I could ever ask for, I have stopped smoking weed/spice, and I gave up all speed and opiates. I'm also going to tale a good month off of tripping. I'm sorry I wish not too explain my visions as they were too personal and the insight that I gained, I feel was for me and me alone... All I can say is that this is not a drug, this is an experience. And I would only recommend it if you don't know who you are or if you are struggling with addiction. I don't plan on ever doing this again... I'm greatful to have experienced this. I wish I could go into more detail, but even if I did, I don't think it would be much help.

do not take 250mg of pure ibogaine jesus christ. I took around 300mg of iboga extract and that was enough to floor me for 12-16 hours or whatever it was, i can barely even remember, that is the nature of the experience. I can't believe you'd spend 3500 on ibogaine that's insane, just buy the iboga extract so much cheaper and you get all the fun alkaloids.

If you took 1000mg of pure ibogaine then yeah maybe you'd trip for a couple days but that's a fucking insane dose. That'd be a several hundred dollar trip to hell probably. Seriously, be careful with ibogaine, it's not a recreational drug AT ALL. It is not fun nor euphoric. It is for the pure psychonaut or researcher.

I recommend you read up a lot more on it before taking it. Read about the seizures, watch the videos on it, the documentaries, the rituals, there is video on most of this even of someone having a seizure on it and it is scary as fuck. Have a sober trip sitter the whole time who can handle the situation, likely you'll be immobile anyway and have very little touch with reality, so you're going to need a very experienced trip sitter who has great discretion. i don't recommend group journeys, throwing another variable in there isn't going to help.

RobotRipping, 250mg of pure ibogaine is not that much. People usually take about 2 grams for a "flood" dose- a totally immersive experience. Yes, it lasts 3 days. That's the idea. It IS insane. This is how most people use it. I'm not saying don't do less, but imo you won't be getting the full visionary experience that has benefited so many people.

But absolutely- Ibogaine/Iboga ain't NOTHIN to fuck with.

I'm glad people respect the power of iboga/ibogaine and it should not be taken lightly, used haphazardly, etc. That said, there are so many misconceptions about ibogaine that it is ridiculous. The constant (incorrect) theme I read is that iboga is some dangerous, harrowing psychedelic, only for hardcore addicts, that produces a trip no one would want to undertake except in the most extreme situations (like opiate dependency.)

I think the problem is that outside of the Bwiti context, 90% of what you read about iboga is related to using it to treat addicts. And addicts often take other drugs (and hide it) and addicts are often not as healthy as non addicts and all of these factors effect the outcome of ibogaine treatment.

And whether ibogaine can stop acute withdrawal in 45 minutes or not....going into a psychedelic trip while in withdrawal is going to be rough...no way around that.

Having used ibogaine twice (one flood dose, one low dose) and having found it to be the A-1 gold psychedelic reference standard of infinite quality, its slightly discouraging to see so many overlook what iboga may have to offer because there is SO MUCH misconception surrounding this magic plant. Iboga is THE psychedelic plant if there ever was one. And Iboga CAN be euphoric, it CAN be fun, it CAN induce a ++++ resulting in 48hr post bliss/feelings of being reborn. Fun and euphoria are not a negative outcome either...sometimes it seems like psychonauts think they should not be having fun, or that 'fun trips' = not serious/recreation. Wrong. Fun = important for happy life.

Really, I've been reading about ibogaine since I was 13, and I have been studying it fairly extensively for 6 months now and I can say that even with all of the reading I did, all the preparation I did....I knew nothing of what I was in for until I took it. When I did ibogaine, it was so VERY different from what I expected. That people who have never taken it are telling others how long it lasts, that they will 'lose all connection with reality', etc is a little annoying. While those things may happen at time during the ibogaine trip, the words simply do not convey the real nature of the ibogaine experience at all. Not for 99% of the people I have spoken with who tried it. Certainly 300ug LSD causes way more 'unreality' than even 1 1/4g ibogaine hcl.

And I will even go so far as to say a smallish dose of ibogaine (150-200mg) is more fun and euphoric than a low dose LSD trip....but that is just me.
