Heroin Addiction Treatment with ibogaine : Lourenço’s story
Transcript – Heroin Addiction Treatment with ibogaine : Lourenço’s story
Q 00:14 What was your addiction like?
I was like a slave. Woke up in the morning and only think about that I need to get it, and I was like a slave. I didn’t have no life, I was always thinking about that. You know what I mean. I was addicted to heroin, and it was a really bad addiction that consumes you. Inside you have so many feelings of guilt, shame. We want to get out of it, but the body asks for it, and we got so much pain, so much pain.
Q 01:01 Tell us about the first time you did Iboga
The first time that i did iboga, was on an Airbnb, was like a week. I was clean too, and I stayed clean for like three months. But, because I didn’t change my life and, I live in a small place, I kept seeing all the people that was related to and, one time we say no, two times we say no, three times you start getting butterflies in the stomach and we fall down again.
Q 01:43 What was it like coming to Tabula Rasa Retreat?
It’s so different now. It’s a calm place, we are protected, we have so many alternative therapies, people are amazing. I want to say thank you, thank you all to have me here and it was so great, so great. I’m so grateful, so grateful. I feel good to be alive, I feel good to be free of drugs, I feel so good. I’m afraid. I’m afraid because I’m going back to my place that I live, and I’m going to see people that are connected with it, but I want to stay strong, and I don’t want to go back to this life again.
Q 02:32 Why choose iboga vs conventional rehab?
It doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. I strongly suggest everybody that has an addiction, don’t try anything else, come to Tabula Rasa. Because over here it’s a different way to do things, a different way. And you get all the symptoms out of your body, you get all kinds of therapies, alternative therapies that makes you stronger. Makes you believe in yourself, because when we are using, our confidence is down, really down now. My confidence is getting higher, I’m a little bit sentimental but that’s normal. But, for me the other therapies didn’t work in general.
Q 03:31 What would you say to those worried about safety?
I had a tough journey, a really tough journey. But I know that I’m in good hands here. People in Tabula Rasa don’t let you die here. They’re going to take care of you and it’s hard, it’s really hard. But you have Iboga, and it’s worth it, it’s really worth it. My god! I’m so happy, I’m so happy. Thank you, thank you so much! Thank you so much.
Q 04:13 Any final words?
I’m feeling happy, feeling confident. I feel like people care. I cannot, I cannot be more grateful. Thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you so much, because if I didn’t do this, I was dead in a couple of years. I had 12 years of addiction, every day. And now I’m free. Thank you! thank you! I strongly suggest that you come to Tabula Rasa if you want to get out of your addiction. What kind of addiction you have: cocaine, heroin, any kind…? It works in all aspects.
Disclaimer: Ibogaine is a potentially illegal substance (often sits in a grey area of the law), and we do not encourage or condone the use of this substance where it is against the law. However, we accept that illegal drug use occurs, and believe that offering responsible harm reduction information and solutions is imperative to keeping people safe. For that reason, we share client testimonials, post treatment with Tabula Rasa Retreat, to show that there are ‘other ways’ to tackle addiction and spiritual malaise. We consider ibogaine as a very useful ‘tool’ in the recovery toolbox. Ibogaine is a safe option, if used responsibly, and where strict safety protocols are followed.
You are safe with us.
