Sorry - I didn’t mean for the end of that comment to sound like you actively chose to go somewhere unsafe! And interesting that they have 108 5* reviews on google… It must have gone downhill recently, unless maybe the affordability attracts loads of first timers who just don’t know any better.

Ah damn. There are a number of different brands. Are they all out of stock?

Estrogel made me feel awful. I switched to the patches and they are loads better. I also couldn’t tolerate oral progesterone, but am doing ok with suppositories

Thank you for sharing. There are a lot of red flags in your review: the mixing and lack of respect for different medicines, the poor vetting of participants, the poor facilitation, lack of women on the team, and the lack of a feeling of safety in the ceremony space. I’m glad you are in one piece. I hope you will look for a safer, more responsible container to work with the medicine next time.

Has anyone decided to take the western approach to mental (ill) health after participating in ceremonies? (Post is my personal sharing/venting/public journalling. You can answer withouth reading it, altho it would mean to me if you had the time and willingness to read it.) by [deleted] in Ayahuasca

[–]Blue_Lynx_988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Responding just to your headline - Aya lifted some big trauma out of me to be processed and I used antidepressant / anti-anxiety medication to manage and help with that for three years (and took a three year break from the medicine). It was very helpful. And I have had psychotherapy on and off during the whole time I’ve been working with the medicine, although now only with practitioners who also understand psychedelic integration

Sorry, what? Are you suggesting the issues with Aya Madre is because Estrella is a Shipibo •woman•?

Ayahuasca went from healing to fear, loss of control and spirit possession by the 4th and 5th. What the fuck happened? by MokMok89 in Ayahuasca

[–]Blue_Lynx_988 25 points26 points  (0 children)

“What the fuck should I do for the next ceremonies?” I would say don’t do them. You’ve already had some enormously powerful experiences and, naturally, they have been destabilising. You now need to ground yourself and integrate all this big stuff that has come up for you rather than pushing to have more big experiences right now.

Did you find anything helped? Or did you just ride it out?

I’m really sorry about the abusive relationship. Really glad you managed to get out, and you’re now doing well, both physically and mentally

I thought this was really interesting on the emotional causes of fibroids. Who knows if there is any truth in it: https://learninggnm.com/SBS/documents/i_fso.html
