Coming to Harambe Detox took courage for me because I have done a heroin detox with ibogaine once last year and was sober for a year. About month and a half ago I started using daily intravenously and I don’t have a good reason for it. Started with drinking a lot and one night and just ran into heroin. Iboga is a commitment and you have to decide 100% to do it because it’s very very difficult to go through and if your resisting it will be much worse.
In the AA/NA meetings, they say it works if you work it. The same with iboga you have to let it to its work and it’s not pretty! But it works! Takes away your obsession and compulsion to use drugs after 3 days being off heroin and going through detox. In regular cases that obsession is usually gone after about 2 months of being in a rehab. A little description of the place at Cathy and Bilal’s is very cosy, perfect for what you need.
Sometimes it got a bit noisy because it is a family house and they live their lives too. At one time the noise was bothering me a lot and I thought to myself I’m at their house they are helping to get off the worst drugs on earth and save my life compared to traditional hospital detoxes or rehabs, Harambe is very very good price compared to other places! And just like that my whole perception changed and was feeling comfortable and grateful. Iboga detox/trip was very hard for me I didn’t sleep for 48 hours, vomited, and shit my pants for 2 days, lay in bed having images in my head of my death if I continued using heroin.
On the third day everything changed I went through what I had to go through with iboga and was feeling really well on the third day, we went for a day trip to the beach! Imagine that on a normal rehab. I’m forever grateful for Cathy and Bilal’s place on a Valencia orange farm surrounded by nature. That gave me time and space to reconnect and to move forward and once again learn from the relapse. I’ve had about 3 relapses after having some time clean. Some people go through them some don’t. I’ve grown through them and got stronger. And with the help of plant medicines, it made possible for me to feel alive again.
My brain is still processing a lot, but its nice not to be thinking about opiates and actually my tendencies for self harm and thoughts like that are gone.
Im actually more honest and direct with people, maybe a bit too direct with some emotions but oh well, definitely more transparent with people when I need space
This is day 1 after detox.This place was amazing journey and best decision made ever. Bilal and Catherine are top class profesionals in this field. Cant be more happy feeling clean and clear mind and no even thinking about drugs. I lost 9kg only in 5 days.Never felt more loved and grounded. This medicine bring me direction in life and clarity who I am and who I want to become. This is magic pill and Not. For those who want to see better verion of themselves is a best place to start.Just need to trust process and keep instructions. Hope to see you guys again

Thank you to iboga, my brother is like day to night. It’s like we have reversed years! We have our brother back.
Le sunt recunoscator din adancul sufletului gazdelor. Sunt niste oameni absolut extraordinari si calzi.
M-am simtit in permanenta un membru al familiei lor. Am beneficiat de atat de multa grija si sustinere cum nu am simtit de muult.
Tratamentul meu a fost cu iboga. A fost pentru prima oara cand am avut o experienta cu psihedelice si vreau sa dau un sfat oricarei persoane care urmeaza sa aiba o astfel de doza, cu orice halucinogen: lasati asteptarile, sperantele in legatura cu modul in care credeti ca se va desfasura experienta deoparte. Uiati toata teoria. Toate trip report-urile citite sunt irelevante.
Experienta este atat de personala si poate varia deosebit de mult.
Eu unul am avut o experienta lipsita aproape in totalitate de vizuale. Nu am vazut decat un tipar arhitectural egiptean in coltul campului vizual care s-a risipit dupa vreo 5 secunde si un televizor pe lampi de moda veche cu antene cu ecranul stins.
Cu toate acestea, trip-ul a fost puternic emotional si m-a facut sa realizez cat de tare m-au afectat niste traume de care credeam ca m-am detasat.
Totodata, nu cred ca as fi putut alege un loc mai bun decat aceasta familie.
Totul s-a desfasurat in conditii de maxima siguranta. Am fost monitorizat in permanenta si repet, sunt niste oameni atat de deosebiti. Ii iubesc din tot sufletul si abia astept sa ii revad fiindca ma voi intoarce deoarece am realizat ca terapia cu psihedelice este un life long journey. Nu este o pastila magica pe care o iei o data si te limpezeste de toate greutatile.
De asemenea, spre surprinderea mea, desi am crezut initial ca beneficiul principal va fi trip-ul vreau sa spun ca experienta comunicarii cu ei a fost in egala masura vindecatoare.
Aaa, si sa nu uit: Malik, fiul lor, este un scump; un baietel atat de educat si atat de saritor. Are 10 ani si spontaneitatea lui mi-a reamintit de simplitatea vietii de copil. Astfel, apogeul trip-ului meu a fost datorat atmosferei de familie. Ma aflam la finalul experientei, dar in continuare puternic sub influenta ibogai, cand am intrat sufrageria lor. Acolo, mama lui, Catherine, asculta o muzica atat de frumoasa, iar Malik se zbenguia si acest peisaj m-a inundat cu fericire.
Cu atat mai frumos, a fost faptul ca in ultima seara Catherine s-a oferit cu tot dragul sa ma scoata alaturi de Malik si de o prietena de-a ei la in Valencia, la un bar, la un concert flamenco. Va dati si voi seama din ce va povestesc cata compasiune au oamenii acestia. Aaa! Si nu numai ca m-a dus acolo, ci a facut si cinste.
In concluzie, am crapat usa vindecarii si nu as putea fi mai fericit ca i-am ales pe acesti oameni. Va iubesc Catherine, Bilal, Malik!
P.s.: portocalele de pe strada de-a lungul careia e si casa lor sunt cele mai bune pe care le-am mancat vreodata. Absolut geniaale!
There are truly no words on earth to describe how ibogaine, Cathy and her amazing family and program changed my life. There for I do not really know how to start this. So I’ll just jump right in…
Sometime in early spring of 2016 I was living in San Francisco California. We all know it is an extremely expensive place to live, so to make ends meet I worked many jobs, thus burning myself out so to speak. One of my gigs at the time was managing a popular nightclub in the evenings, so drugs were all around me.
When I felt it was too much, I fell onto heroin and fentayl, and hard. I had previously had several years clean prior to this. Once I literally realized I was going to die as many actually did all around me I panicked.
Luckily, I knew of ibogaine from my past, the first time I ever had an opiate problem. The problem was back then the only ibogaine treatment centres I could find were all in Mexico and central American countries.
Due to bureaucracy these clinics tend to be a little shady so in order to find a trustworthy place you must spend thousands… Put it this way. My trip to Valencia Spain from San Francisco California plus full detox treatment was literally a fraction of the price.
If you truly want to put behind all your addictions, move on past a defibrillating ailment in your life, I can’t not recommend ibogaine hci treatment enough to you in words.
If not for Cathy, Bilal, family and this treatment you wouldn’t be reading this, for I would of been dead a few years ago by now. Real talk.
Now I’m happily married living in Barcelona working on my true passions in life, all the ones i lost touch with due to drugs.
I personally vouch on behalf of this treatment and family working behind it 110%.
Cathy picked me up for the airport, catered to my nutritional needs as a 20 plus year vegan *best chickpea masala of all time btw!’ I couldn’t of asked for any more.
