Hunter S. Thompson was right all along…
The stuff about ibogaine in “Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72” was in a rare category where I genuinely couldn’t tell if he was being serious or making up nonsense. Maybe it was real.
Ibogaine has been used in alternative medicine to help people break addiction for quite some time. It just happens to be a psychedelic treated with extreme respect, perhaps due to the nonzero chance that it could kill you. Interestingly enough, this study seems to suggest that co-administration with magnesium may completely or at least significantly offset that chance.
I watched a documentary on it at one point, and it’s not a pleasant experience, at least from an outside perspective.
Pretty much every orifice is gonna have something coming out of it, often simultaneously.
I’m curious about it’s use in treating addiction, what with sharing a house with an alcoholic relative.
