I've been invited to do an Ibogaine ceremony next weekend (6th-8th August), which I've been waiting for for months! It is a bit of a last minute thing because they had a space open up so they have only given me 1 week notice. I don't have any of the contraindications, but last weekend (before I knew about this) I had decided to start taking sertraline (SSRI). I took a few pills over the weekend but by the Tuesday I had given up on the idea because I didn't like the effects. So I took 5 50mg pills over the course of a few days and then stopped. I haven't taken anything since. I haven't put this on the pre ceremony questionnaire because I wasn't properly on the medication. I'm also worried they won't let me do the ceremony if I mention it (it says on the guidance you should stop taking medications 1 month before). The half-life of sertraline is 24-26 hours and I'll have had 10 days clear by the time of the ceremony. I am normally a really careful person but I really want and need to do the ceremony and feel strongly that this is my time to start a new life (I have had severe depression for over 3 years, which is why I am doing it!). This week I will prepare properly and do a full liver flush. I just wanted to ask on here to see if anyone honestly thinks there will be any problems during the ceremony as a result of taking those few pills.
