Solving addiction with psychedelics can
It may sound crazy....
The idea of applying psychedelic substances to solve addictions may sound contradictory. What does this psychedelic approach to addiction look like within the Program for Transformation? What do we know about the results and US studies? Let’s look at how psychedelics can help with addiction. People susceptible to one addiction are more likely to become dependent on other substances. So why are we giving a psychedelic substance to these people?
How do psychedelics help with addiction?
Psychedelics, especially psilocybin, can alter communication between brain networks. They also stimulate the production of new neurons. These new connections and the experiences from truffle ceremonies can give us a new perspective on life. This can help participants reset their lives. It may sound strange, but the research results are impressive.å√
Program for Transformation
Within the Program for Transformation, we offer psychedelic experiences to master addiction, not using a substitute medium as addiction. We deploy the psychedelics with which addiction can be addressed. In fact, psychedelics, and especially the substance psilocybin in truffles, are not addictive. In addition to psilocybin, therapy with other substances is also given within some research bodies. As psychologists and therapists at Truffle-ceremony.com, we only focus on dealing with psilocybin from truffles since it is the only psychedelic that is legal in the Netherlands.
Within the Program for Transformation, we offer people with addiction to overcome their dependence on the substance. Within three months, most participants have gained the understanding that they do not have to be addicted at all. Dependence on the drug is thus overcome. Life can be reshaped and future plans can be made.
During therapeutic sessions, with our therapists or psychologists, and psychedelic ceremonies, experiences and insights are carefully documented. Sessions are supervised and integration is done with the help of our qualified therapists. Participants who are willing to work on themselves and who dare to look straight at their addiction have the best results. Only then can dependency be broken.
Why truffles with psilocybin?
Truffles are legal in the Netherlands. All other psychedelics are not. Truffles contain the psychoactive substance psilocybin, which allows us to step outside the done paths. By these done paths we mean the patterns stored in our subconscious. In this subconscious mind, these patterns are stored due to various reasons. Because in our youth, we wrote ourselves off or didn’t feel good enough. We felt shame, fear or sadness and could not or should not express it.
As a result, we adapted to the situation and you went into survival mode. Addiction was lurking as a result.
With the truffles, we can begin to break your patterns and work on a finer life.
The first step in resolving an addiction is recognizing the negative impact that using alcohol or drugs has on your life. Many people who use drugs do not notice until later how it affects their health and relationships with family or friends.
Each time you use drugs, it can become harder and harder to quit completely. It is important to seek support from people with addiction who have similar experiences and learn how to become less and less dependent on the substance. With the right guidance and perseverance, you can regain control of your life.
Research
A recent study by Johns Hopkins University, published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, showed that the use of psilocybin-based therapy can have a positive effect on smoking addiction. In the study, smokers underwent two or three sessions of psilocybin-based therapy, being guided by trained therapists during their trip.
After six months, more than 80% of participants reported that they had completely quit smoking. This is a remarkable achievement compared to standard treatments for smoking addiction, which are often less effective.
Another study, published in the journal The Lancet Psychiatry, examined the use of psilocybin-based therapy for alcohol addiction. In the study, participants received one session of psilocybin-based therapy and reported a significant decrease in their alcohol use after six months. In addition, participants reported improved quality of life and decreased symptoms of anxiety and depression.
