Jemma, UK (Testimonial)

I first heard about iboga quite a few years ago when I was looking for a way to cure my sister’s addiction to opiates and other hard to get off substances. When she was eventually ready to stop, I found Harambe online. I had emailed other websites offering iboga but had not really had a response but Harambe responded quickly and gave me a lot of information. I instantly knew that this was the right place to take my sister. When we eventually got there, we met Cathy and Bilal who were so welcoming and understanding to what my sister was going through. It was lovely to be surrounded by mountains and trees and the food they cook is amazing!

My sister was given two large doses of iboga over a course of a couple of days in which she time travelled and was also able to speak to our father who has passed away. The doses took away all of withdrawals and the majority of her cravings but most importantly, it took away her depression and feelings of wanting to commit suicide which were just as much part of the problem as was the addiction. My sister lost nearly everything because of all of this and now she is gaining it all back. I can really say that she is a changed person and is back to the way she was before the addiction and other traumas of life took her.

A couple of months later I decided to go back to Harambe to do the iboga myself as I was struggling with some issues with anxiety and depression and had been reliant on smoking cannabis every day all day for nearly ten years. If I did not have it I felt like I could not get through the day and I wanted it to stop. Unfortunately, my experience with the iboga wasn’t too pleasant, not because of the hallucinations but because I was very very sick for the whole time and was unable to keep it down. I experienced an emotion that does not even exist and it was a terrifying feeling. When I got home, I had night terrors every night for a week but I think that this was just all of the bad stuff coming out of me. The experience definitely changed something in me as it took away my mind chatter which usually used to stop me from falling asleep for hours and was usually full of negative comments! Bilal said that I would need to come back and do a second dose like my sister did so another month later I came back and did it again.

This time it was a lot easier and I was able to keep it down. I did not have deep visions like my sister did but when it was over, I had the best feeling of peace and relaxation I have ever experienced! A lot of things have changed for me now. I don’t feel anxious and low all of the time. I don’t have social anxiety now. I can sleep so well and so deep now which is amazing! My diet has completely changed as for some reason the experience made me want to go vegetarian and not eat sugar as much as I was so addicted to chocolate and cake but this could have been down to the munchies! Anyway, I have lost weight because of it which is great. I never wanna taste or smell nicotine again, the thought of it makes me heave and I cannot stand the smell at all now. My mind has totally been altered and I just do not feel the same about cannabis anymore. I do not rely on it and the voice in my head telling me I need it 24/7 is gone. I can’t say that I won’t ever smoke it again but I will never let myself become reliant on it again, that much I know.

A couple of months after this my mum decided that she wanted to try it too to see if she could give up smoking 40 cigarettes a day. She did it and she is still free of them now. I cannot recommend this detox enough to anyone. It is not entirely an easy experience but it is so worth it for your mental and physical wellbeing! I will definitely do this again at some point as it has helped me and my family so much.

I really hope that if you are reading this, you make the choice to go ahead and do it. Cathy and Bilal are some of the most interesting people I have ever met and what they are doing is nothing short of miracle work! Whilst I was there, I have seen some very chronic addicts being cured and I never thought I would see my sister live the rest of her life so I cant thank them enough. My whole family has changed for the better because of iboga and Cathy and Bilal and I am eternally grateful for that.

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.

Frank Coulan Testimonial (France)

Hello I have 27, for more than 10 years I was addicted to morphine and especially the last two years I was falling into the abyss of this drug I had used more than 500mg a day, I lost my marriage and my child and I was attending an center addiction but they no offer alternatives except methadone or another synthetic opiate, until the day I started to search on the net and I am to fall on the site of Catherine and Bilal, so I started to read the positive comments and after a few weeks I decided to have passed the course I send a message to Catherine explaining my problem and she has very quickly answered by explaining the progress and she reassured me a lot.

1 week later I arrived at home Bilal, her husband came to pick me up at the airport, to be honest with you I was very skeptical about the outcome of this detox and I did not really think it could help, well I was wrong, it was a very hard test but Catherine and Bilal are very professional and they knew their job well, the environment is very favourable for a cure, I advise anyone who if you believe in taking plant medicine, you will have a very close family and people who have their hands on their hearts, something that is rare nowadays.

Why you should choose Harambe Ibogaine Detox Centre?
I fully recommend the ibogaine experience with Bilal and Cathy. I had a preconception that they might be two crazy hippies who would encourage me to talk to trees and denounce myself as an animal murderer, but they are just two lovely, knowledgeable and down-to-earth people. As soon as I arrived and got chatting to them and their kids, I felt relaxed and I really enjoyed getting to know the whole family over the course of five days. They also have the loveliest and most well-trained (Ridgeback) dog: Jamma.

They live in a beautiful part of the world and after I recovered from the Ibogaine experience, I spent my time either lying in a hammock in their botanical conservatory, sunbathing on the roof or walking with the dog through the orange groves and eating delicious oranges. By the end of my stay, I felt fully recharged and ready to face the world again.

I fully recommend Cathy, Bilal and this setting over staying in a clinic. They have all the relevant knowledge to ensure you have the experience you need, and probably twice the compassion (compared to clinic doctors).

How was my ibogaine experience?
Cathy picked me up from the airport and took me to their house; when I arrived, Bilal gave me a drink which cleared out my system. Then I just relaxed on my bed and watched films on my laptop and went to sleep. The next morning Bilal gave me the first ibogaine capsule, then another an hour later but nothing was happening. However, I lay there a little longer and I started to enjoy the shard of light coming through the blind turning into a hallucination of a beach. This was just the beginning. Throughout the following few hours as things got more intense, Bilal and Cathy both made regular checks on me without disturbing me (which was perfect). The whole time I was also fully aware of who I was and where I was; I even tried to test myself with thinking of scary stuff and it was fine because I knew that I was in control. As others have said, you do get more sensitive to noise. I would recommend bringing ear plugs because you are in a house and there naturally will be some noise, but for me it wasn’t really a bother.

I cannot really recall any of the visions I had. They were not linked in any emotionally relevant way to me, nor did they show me anything revelatory. However, I was able to think deeply about who I was as a person, the things I said to people and why I said them. It was like, for the first time, I was able to think without all the other opinions and influences from outside casting doubt on the truthfulness of my thoughts and beliefs. I discovered some stuff that really struck on a visceral level, and this was stuff I had already known on an intellectual level but it had never penetrated to motivate active change.

This stuff was mainly my need for attention and focus on myself. I kept remembering snippets of conversations I had had over the past few months and all of them were showing me that the stuff I was saying was designed to draw attention to me (both positive and negative), and the focus was always on how I was presenting myself to the world. The ibogaine also revealed a false self I had developed to mask a fragile ego. This false self was opinionated, controversial and somewhat obnoxious.

After a few hours, the ibogaine began to subside in strength. This is the hardest part because you lay there with your thoughts for the next 24-48 hours and it is really really boring. However, it is vital because you can still think in a creative way and it helps cement and clarify new insights. The next morning after the experience, Bilal brought me fruit, granola and yoghurt (after no food for about 40 hours). I was sooo happy and I definitely felt Stockholm syndrome towards him J.

How do I feel now (3 weeks later)?
In some ways I am not much different. My personality has not changed drastically. I still drink more than I should and I love meat just as much as before. However, I feel like I scraped out a negative and false feeling inside myself. I feel calmer and more compassionate towards my friends and family, and I also feel this more towards myself. I can see aspects of myself that I really like more clearly and I feel less attached and ashamed of my negative traits. It’s like I’ve detached the negative traits from my identity and now they just live in my mind, ready to be slowly destroyed (no rush). Finally, I feel motivated to make active changes towards self-improvement in the form of therapy.

Final advice?
Don’t be afraid to undertake this experience. It will give you what you need.

I wanted to take iboga because I have had a lot of trauma and problems in my life. The relationship with my mother broke early. She turned my siblings against me. As a man, relationships with women seemed to get to a point but not go further due to my mental/emotional blocks. I then went through many problems. By 13 began smoking weed and by 30 I was spending three quarters of my surplus wages on it. I had heard about iboga treatment for a while but was sceptical. My uncle did the treatment and he directed me to www.harambedetox.com

When I arrived at Harambe Detox I felt safe with them. They are very practical and down to earth; they are not fake shamans and are respectful of the medicine and they give all the credit to the medicine and not themselves. The iboga was something else! I was in another world of confusing visions and crazy dreams. Every one´s visions/experience is different so I won’t go into the details. When I awoke, I felt an amazing calmness, happiness and lack of cravings. I could think about weed and not feel that I needed to smoke it, not even tobacco! This has created an amazing freedom in my life. Now I look at the situation with my family and not feel the rage and disappointment that I once felt. Having so much more money and being free of addiction is a great feeling!

I still feel that I have more exploring to do with iboga and I will be coming back to do more. Catherine explained that we are like onions, and each treatment peels of a layer. In my opinion, everyone should take it in their lives. I would say Catherine and Bilal are humble not to give themselves credit as they are concerned, very caring and watchful, there to help you if you need.

You have to be ready to write a success story and I was not. At least not yet.

I went to Valencia for a one week stay in May 2017. Despite the 2 negative reviews, I found it to be exactly as advertised. Cathy picked me up at the airport with the 2 little ones in the back seat. The kids were 4 and 9 at the time and just the way kids that age are. The room I was in had an own bathroom, food and drinks were provided.

Now to the treatment itself. I was still on my medication, namely 800mg of xr morphine daily. Even though I’d didn’t take it the day of the treatment, I took it the day before.

To get the full psychedelic effect of ibogaine, one should be already clean or further into withdrawal. Not in full withdrawal, but further than I was when I got the first dose. There is of course the factor of me being an absolute sissy about wd’s.

I didn’t have a visual trip, didn’t have any revelations but except for some restless legs, sweating and shivering I didn’t have any wd symptoms either. So, it works and if you’re ready to go home sober and keep it that way, ibogaine is a valuable tool to get there. I literally skipped the worst part of withdrawal. The next day I was really weakened, but since I couldn’t stand being in that room with my own thoughts, I sought out Bilal and talked a little, went for a shaky walk around the house and then back to bed.

It’s not easy, but it’s the best chance I have. I relapsed after 24 hours back home. But I will definitely go back to take two flood doses when I’m finished with university. The service Cathy and Bilal provide fills the gap between shady clinics in eastern Europe, expensive retreats in Mexico that don’t give out full flood doses (as I hear) and doing it alone at home, which is dangerous.

I want to mention that I threw up a lot during the final stages of the ‘trip’ and since it might’ve been blood Cathy didn’t hesitate a second to take me to the hospital.

Looking forward to doing it right the next time. Even though I relapsed I’m glad I did the experience. Now I know for sure that there’s a way out that works.

Anledningen till att jag bestämde mig för att åkte ner till Harambe Ibogaine rehab var för att jag i ungefär 5års tid efter ett dödstrauma med jämna mellanrum känt mig deprimerad med panikångest attacker som följd och inte lyckats att få bort dessa känslor o tankar på traditionel medicinsk eller terapeftisk väg.

Oktober 2013 åkte jag till Peru o provade Ayahuaska med positivt resultat som varade i ungefär i 3-4 månader. Känslorna o tankarna återkom. Januari 2015 kände jag att nu var det dax igen att göra något åt min situation, fick kontakt med Bilal o Cathy på Harambe Ibogaine Rehab o kände direkt en famlijär o personlig känsla som jag ville jobba vidare på. Bokade in mig på en 10dagars behandling o åkte ner. Väl nere hos Bilal o Cathy så kände jag mig som en i familjen o nervositeten o spänningarna försvann.

Vi planerade upp att jag skulle ta Ibogaine vid 2 olika tillfällen under dom här 10 dagarna. Efter 1:a resan/dosen som varade i ungefär 5-6 timmar med ett vilo dygn kände jag mig fantastiskt mycket bättre, den här medicinen jobbar verkligen på djupet av en själv o rensade bort mina dåliga känslor o tankar som jag har burit med mig i så många år. Jag har bara känt mig bättre o bättre för varje dag som gått sedan behandlingen.

Efter 3dagar bestämde jag mig för att inte ta en 2:a dos och Bilal han höll med för han tyckte att vi gjort stora framsteg, det kändes härligt. Jag åkte hem efter 6dagar som en ny människa. Jag vill verkligen tacka Bilal o Cathy för deras härliga stöd under dom här sex dagarna och jag rekommenderar verkligen deras behandlingsform. Om jag ska jämnföra Ayahuaska o Ibogaine så kändes det som om att Ibogaine går mer på djupet med en som person o tar bort negativa känslor o tankar som kan fastna som minnen i kroppen, härlig känsla , 5kilo lättare fysiskt, 200kg lättare mentalt.:)
