yes the moneys on me having spelt it wrong!
see the programme on telly the other night?
a powerful and all natural halucinagenic plant substance now being used to cure all addictions from gambling to crack.
you havre one session you are no longer addicted.
i think they are claiming a 100% sucsess rate.
the guy was dosed and started freaking out a little bit. a minder/companion on hand twenty four hrs about three days long.
is gently explained to this guy who's mind is going places its never before been ...that over the next 72 hrs he will be taking 15 times that ammount.
he was a camera man with addiction problems ...the crew filmed it all ...i think i must be old skool but i'd rather cold turkey than go where that guy had to.
if you get a chance to watch this thing do so.

but i've done all the tripping i can handle thankyou so i'd go cold.
powerful stuff.
when you see the guy recover ...you'll understand why he doesn't suddenly get into this newfound hit!
old african tribal shaminism drug thing ...i'll have to look it up cos i can't even remember what the show was called or when it was on ...
The problem being that it also can stop you moving at all, so you have all the effects of a heavy DOM hit but your unable to move.
Very wierd.
I think if it was used to treat addictions it would either make or break. Either you'd have some fantastic breakthrough and be cured for ever. Or it would totally fuck you.
so as bb says it would be make or break.
lots of people i have worked with go cold, as they feel they can own what they have done and didn't have to rely on another chemical. how long they last after though is another story and another thread...
Also I heard about drug treatment centre which is for cocaine. Its based in Brazil I think.
Basically you go out into the jungle with a Shamen guide and spend two weeks out there purging, meditating etc. You then have an oral DMT trip there with the Shamen.
You then come back and see a fully trained mental health worker and you talk through all the issues that were brought up by the experience.
Now the individual I heard interviewed said;
"I saw and talked with God, after that everything was in perspective."
Now, obviously this may well have been just a trip, OR he may well have actually spoken to God. Either way it helped him.
Drug treatment for addiction can be useful, but it has to be managed very tightly.
i know we have moved on a bit since then, and if things are managed then it can work. that perhaps is the biggest problem, not getting people of the drugs, but helping them put their lives back together after. and no drug can really sort that out
Did you know they trialed the use of injections of methamphetamine at one point in the UK to cure heroin addiction. Truely a wise idea! Its the only case in the UK of a drug being introduced into the market then withdrawn and no black market following.
it took him a week to recover ...after three days away from the experiens he managed to walk to the bathroom and have a shave ...it was another couple of days before his legs were strong enough to carry him outside.
a must see docu.
