DOSE:
4.0 g oral Tabernanthe iboga (rootbark)
BODY WEIGHT: 150 lb

So I got tired of waiting around for someone to offer me lsd so I decided to search online for natural plants that contained psychedelics. So i found many plants that interested me. One in perticular being Ibogaine in the iboga root bark. I did some mescaline the other day before I tried the iboga and thought that the iboga would have similar effects than the mescaline. Wrong. Iboga is totally different. More powerful.

At first i ordered 2 grams and grinded it up in coffee grinder and mixed it with a fruit drink to mask the HORRIBLE taste. After an hour or 2 i feel as if i am roling on ecstasy and I also saw some flashing and then it went away after a few hours. So I then ordered 4 grams after and then grinded it up in my grinder and drank it with fruit drink. I was in my apartment with music playing on my computer while also playing visualizations on winamp.

After two hours i threw up and the felt better and started to trip. I should have taken pepto-bismol an hour after i drank the iboga so that I did not have to through up the iboga.

I started to feel it. Started to see things. colorful texture on everything.

After about 5 hours a new stage in this drug experience happened. I began to feel different, the drug was kicking in more! I can try to describe what was going on with me. This drug was making the smarter. Opening up my head so that I could think VERY clearly. Normally my memory is bad because I smoke a lot of marijuana and usually forget what I am saying or thinking and can not recall it ever, but with the iboga I could remember everything with lighting speed. It has been 2 days since I have done it and my head is still above what it should be. The drug made me think of different persectives on live that I would have never of thought of with out this drug. I felt free, I felt smarter and I felt as if a new chapter in life has started for me.

The drug lasted about 15 hours and i still had some after effects more than 24 hours later. I am ready for 8 grams.

I dont' know why there are no good experience reports about this drug, so I decided to give ya'll some information. I am also planning on extracting dmt from plants and drinking Ayahuasca. 5-meo-dmt looks interesting too. I love san pedro cactus too! I want to try shrooms too. I am growing them now. (fyi)

Overall the experience was unforgettable and very theraputic for me.
