Addictive Substances and their Challenges with Special Guest Felipe Camino, May 21, All About Ibogaine

REPLAY:

This meeting was a discussion about Ibogaine treatment at IbogaQuest, featuring Felipe sharing his personal experience with the medicine and how it helped him overcome addiction.

Felipe described his first Ibogaine treatment in 2009, which provided a reconnection to himself and life after years of substance use, though he relapsed quickly because he wasn’t ready for transformation at the time. He explained how Ibogaine helped him work through deep grief over his mother’s suicide and forgiveness toward his father, describing these as foundational relationship healings. Felipe detailed the challenges of working with different substances like fentanyl, Kratom, Suboxone, and methadone, emphasizing the need for proper medical screening, cardiac monitoring, and careful substance switching protocols before treatment. Juan, a medical doctor at IbogaQuest, explained his role in pre-care stabilization and the importance of creating a compassionate “container” for patients during treatment.

Rory shared his experience going through methadone detox before receiving Ibogaine treatment in Mexico, describing how the clinic provided a supportive environment without expectations, which contrasted with his previous rehab experiences in the United States. The discussion highlighted the complexity of readiness for Ibogaine treatment, the importance of proper detoxification before treatment, and the ongoing need for integration and aftercare support.

Ibogaine Treatment Experience and Insights

Felipe shared his personal experience with ibogaine treatment in 2009, describing it as life-changing but noting he wasn’t ready for transformation at the time. After relapsing quickly due to lack of support and planning, Felipe eventually understood the need for comprehensive support beyond just substance cessation. He now works at IbogaQuest as a provider, having successfully integrated ibogaine treatment with therapeutic support, AA/NA groups, and family relationship work.
