My name is Aeden Aeharn, and I am the founder of Experience Ibogaine.
I was addicted to heroin, among other drugs, during my teenage years. My parents spent large amounts of money shipping me all around the country to different rehab facilities, none of which worked long-term. I would get clean for a couple of months, then somehow end up neck-deep in addiction, not knowing how I got back there. No matter what I did, I couldn’t break the cycle. Eventually, my parents suggested suboxone or methadone. However, I had seen these medications become a lifelong crutch for some of my friends, and getting off of them seemed just as difficult as getting off of heroin.
One day, while I was desperately searching the internet, I came across an alternative method called ibogaine treatment. It was something different, something I hadn’t tried, and it seemed to have high success rates. I felt like I was out of new options and had nothing to lose, so I decided to try it.
When I came to Mexico in November of 2012 for ibogaine treatment, I was uncertain and skeptical, but I tried to keep an open mind. After supporting me through years of drug abuse, my parents told me that this was my last chance. This ultimatum scared me. I knew that if this treatment didn’t work, I would be on my own.
I began ibogaine treatment for my heroin addiction the same day I arrived in Mexico. After taking ibogaine, I had visions about my life and who I was as a person. Many of the things I saw were things I didn’t want to look at, acknowledge, or accept. I had to confront how I treated myself and those closest to me. I began to see what I was running from and trying to mask with drugs, things I’m still changing in myself to this day.
Throughout my experience, the medication helped me realize that, even after everything I had done to my family and myself, I had another chance to change. When I got out of bed the next day, I remember looking at the sunrise. As I stared at the ocean, I realized I was no longer numb. I could see the beauty of the world around me again. Ibogaine treatment filled me with gratitude. I felt grateful to have a family that loved me, friends, food, and a roof over my head. I was truly happy to be alive.
Ibogaine treatment helped me identify the things in my life I was taking for granted. It also had a profoundly transformative effect. I felt like a new person, a person who was stronger than I had been before I was torn apart by drug addiction. I could never have developed this mental clarity if I had been going through severe withdrawal symptoms. My withdrawals were completely gone, and I actually felt human again.
I decided going home was not the best option for me at this stage in my recovery, So I went to another clinic where I received post-treatment care and support and supported others going through treatment. Eventually, I decided I wanted to work with people who had the same issues as me and help them find sobriety and lasting happiness. Now, over 10 years later, I’ve worked with 2,500+ patients in my time here at Experience Ibogaine. I’ve seen the powerful transformation that can be experienced through ibogaine treatment. A healthy dose of skepticism is a good thing. While we want all our patients to develop their own understanding of what Ibogaine can do for them, I also want to share, from my own experience, why I consider ibogaine such a game-changer for those facing addiction.
