Something that Hamilton Morris has pointed out is that the demand for Bufo venom is driving the toad to extinction. This is a pointless ecological catastrophe because the drug itself (5MeO DMT) can be synthesized, with chemicals available legally in Mexico and at a very low cost per dose. Unfortunately, the psychedelic community is full of people who aren't great at logical thinking and they think it is somehow necessary to use a natural product instead of a synthetic drug despite the chemical equivalency of both forms.
Came here to point out this. HM (as close as we have to an ambassador, and all-around good fella) can’t be happy that the same outfit responsible for propagating his message/s so blatantly ignores one of his most insistent themes (not to mention, this being the specific example he uses to reinforce his perspective on the theme). Smdh
Rodrigo is a wonderful shaman who actually grew up in the plant medicine community in his home town. I sat with him doing kambo multiple times and he was a great shaman
From someone who has experimented with psychodelics...its a quick fix that doesnt last forever. Overcoming trauma takes years of dedicated practice. The same can be said for self love
and i don't feel like these allies 'fix' anything. the only thing that can 'fix' you is you. but they do lend insight as the root to the problems. and give guidance on what steps to take next. it also depends on your intention going into these journeys. u get out what u put in.
100% agree. with this second huge wave of psychedelics coming into the main stream and people using them for "medicinal" reasons, the purpose and power of psychedelics are getting lost. it can open your eyes temporarily and assist with making changes, but the real work is done every day while sober. you can learn everything from the universe during a trip but it really doesn't mean anything if it can't be applied in real life. like if the only way a person can get to an enlightened state is through drugs, then are they really enlightened? ive also experimented with psychedelics and found them detrimental in some ways, since your consciousness is so heightened during a trip, when you come down it can feel like life is too hard to live, or that the journey to get to where you wanna be spiritually is too far away. this isn't in this video specifically, but i've seen a lot of people recommending psychedelics to everyone and that they can "help anyone that tries them" but this is misinformation and doesn't take into account mental health issues, trauma, and even a person's genetics. i'm just commenting cause i thought i was the only one that felt this way. it's comforting on some level to know other people see that it really is just a quick fix that doesn't last forever or magically fix a person's perspective or life.
@@YouAreDreamingRightNow That is correct. Psychedelics aren't a fix to trauma as I would know with C-PTSD. They do not cure it, but they will give you guidance, healing and new viewpoints. Then we have to do the work ourselves, which surely is not always easy. Changing others is impossible, changing yourself is hard too.
I remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with bipolar. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 4years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms & dmt are phenomenal.
Are we just going to ignore the fact that the shaman just ignored and even reinforced the claims about abuse and assault during such psychedelic ceremonies? This was a very powerful documentary, but it truly shocked me how ignorant and unaware the "so-called" guides were about these allegations. The audacity to say that the women are at fault for "creating a reaction" in the man is so banal and absurd.
That Shaman he interviewed on the beach seemed to have ethical practices, having a female present and being administered in a public space, for examples. I think it was good that Matt found, but trusted, a shadier one for his own trip. It gave a good contrast. I would have preferred the second one, myself, but I'm male. Except that he gave a lower dose.
Yeah I was surprised that this wasn't the main subject of the documentary. He chose the most expensive retreat. The shaman did not stay sober. When asked, he said that women who experience assault in this environment have themselves to blame. And he reiterated that after being given a chance to hide behind a 'language barrier ' by his colleague.
Spanish is my first and main language, I can certify that there was nothing lost onin translation here. He understood the question and answered it honestly based on his views. The majority of the world still has a lot to learn around victim blaming. Claiming he’s a man as if that justifies him from having any responsibility or control over his impulses… geeeeeeeeez. Comparing rape to falling while walking in a cave. No, no. One is an accident. Another is an intentional, meditated, and voluntary horrendous crime perpetrated and justified by monsters. Good luck getting your bufo to heal you from that. As for Vice, excellent documentary and we should also add information on the impact this practice is having on the toads. Thanks for your work!
it's crazy one of the most important things psychedelics have tought me is to have control over my urges, not that i'd ever touch a woman but in general with drugs, alcohol, smoking etc
And where was his openness of conscience and union with the pacha mama? Did he also go on the trip? Y su apertura de conciencia y unión con la pacha mamá donde quedó? También se fue en el viaje? 😮
All decisions come with risk. Humans often overlook risk in their decision making when they are desperate. I think two questions are being asked here. One is moral, the other is legal. Should women be more careful, men more gallant, the world more safe, and who should be legally culpable for a crime that we (rightfully) consider a crime? An ideal world would have no suffering. A preferable world would see that this industry get regulated to hell and back.
so if you are a woman, and you are getting ready to go on such a experience where you are going to be vulnerable.. wouldnt it be a good idea to bring a third party (a friend) thats gonna wach over you? how are you just jumping into stuff with no regard? ofc the man that takes advantage is at fault, but if you are aware that this kind of stuff is happening, why wouldnt u take precautions? for example, i lock my door everytime i leave the house.. even tho it would be wrong for someone to enter my house and steal all my stuff.. i still cant just leave my door open. would u blame me if i had no door at all, i went to work and came back with all my belongings missing.. would u victim blame me?

The reason I feel such an ick for this type of neo spirituality is not the drugs, it’s the extreme push for trusting and open up to ppl you literally do not know. It feels like unnatutal closeness, forceful intemacy, and if you feel uncomfortable it’s bc you’re ”narrow minded”. It opens up for a lot of abuse in these circles
Right.. and you don't meet this person you'll be knocked out next to til after you already paid 20k.. people feel pressured to change their minds if they feel uncomfortable. Especially if they flew from another country.
I think it's irresponsible for Vice to talk about bufo and not talk about the toad's threat to survival due to the overharvesting by these neoshamans. The toad is extremely important to the Yaqui tribes and they have asked to use synthetic 5 M3O for ten years so the population can come back 🙏🏻
My recovery journey was greatly enhanced by the therapeutic benefits of mushrooms. Other psychedelics like DMT and LSD have also proven to be remarkable.
Mushrooms, if used properly, can be one of the most enlightening and soul lifting experiences. Many people i know say they were "saved" by mushrooms. I wholeheartedly agree
The last shaman, his mentality on abuse, is absolute insanity. Victim blaming. Totally right, takes one person to commit sexual assault. He’s dangerous. It’s a breeding ground for sexual assault and abuse. Both physical and mentally.
calling for the acceptance of responsibility and recognition of negligence is not the same as defending or absolving the perpetrator of a crime. If your car is stolen and you had removed the locks, good luck getting the insurance company's sympathy for that sense of entitlement and detachment from reality@@Lazirus951. Put another way, if you order take-out and it's terrible it's on you for not checking the reviews. Slightly more apt, if that place sent you poison, then you aren't responsible because there's no precedent for it; but there is for men being abusive.
@@theshameoftiraswild. I used to wear men’s baggy tshirts and oversized sweats. I got raped in that attire. What am I supposed to do then to avoid getting raped again? Lock myself in my room and never come out?

Highly appreciate this guy's approach to this documentary. Very honest, and stays in reality and stand by the truth. He wasn't buying into the cover-up. I think you're absolutely dead on accurate. There's a real sexual assault issue that absolutely needs to be addressed and the viewers need to be aware of this if they choose to go to something like this.
CAREFUL! Nobody talks about survivorship bias. And this means that only those who have survived tell their experience. Those who have not survived are in psychiatric hospitals and cannot speak. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias
Bacalar is a lake, and they were an island nearby, why would you want to escape if you went to a ceremony is because someone you trust recommended it to you @@dooooooval904
There's no place far enough that you can run to that will allow you to escape what's in your own head. The lack of surrendering and needing to control an outcome of a spiritual experience is the true red flag here.
I had a psychedelic experience once that sent me to eternity and meeting the creator. My ego dissolved yet I was physically terrified. It was so magical and so full of love, changed my life for good. In the most positive way possible. it’s been the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time.
Since I tired psychedelics for the first time, I’ve been trying to describe the experience to others so there can try it as well, but i couldn’t find the right words to describe it.
@CristelleHul if you walk into a dangerous neighborhood at night alone and take the most potent hallucinogen on the planet... If something bad happens to you... Yeah it's partly your fault
Out of all my DMT experiences,only one was semi like this. Most of them deal with other dimensional beings, but there was only really one that I felt as if I was in the center of the universe.
@@moniquesacks2953 Oh wow. I never had one that had anything to do with other dimensional beings. Sacred geometric patterns, amazing feelings of love. No one ever said anything to me about not taking meds, not eating or anything like that. I had AMAZING and profoundly transformative experiences. I have had several experiences over the past year and remember every single second of each of them. I was also conscious of and had control over my body. I preferred to let go so I could experience bufo to the fullest, so I did.
I just found that video and was like: what? Bufo? What's that? There is nothing stronger than 5-MeO-DMT and yes, what they call "Bufo" is exactly 5-MeO, so gotta admit the fact that it is a bit dangerous to consume a substance you really know nothing about more than just anecdotal evidence. Shout out to Colorado Toad and Ayahuasca shaman experience.
how scary it is to think that some people go completely alone into and experience like this just trusting their luck. At the end of the video the woman and that guy totally revealed themselves and their disgusting predatory behaviour
Yeah that was crazy. That shaman understood what he was asking him. That bastard basically admitted to raping people when they're helpless..even if a woman happens to have a rape fantasy let's say, she should be getting rid of it by using Bufo. The Shaman should just be there to help protect ppl that's it.
what do you mean? i didnt get that feeling at all... its not crazy to assume someone had a crazy reaction and slipped off her bikini top.. and then didnt realize she did it when she came back to reality... edit: oh ok nvm you were talking about the shaman at the end end, not the first shamans.
If he did mean to say that a woman is to blame for her raping if all she did was wear a mini skirt and have a slight sexual energy about them, then that's insanely worrying. If he's just saying don't trust the first guy you see with literally your whole mind and body, then yeah.. Absolutely! (Maybe he's even thinking about / pointing out specific shady shamans) Didn't come off like that though tbh. Very creepy...
he’s been smoking too much where he ended up blowing himself up and he knew it, looked at the girl to step in and help him out. seedy scum bags taking advantage and getting paid for it wow
I'm a veteran, alcohol and cigarettes addiction actually destroyed my life. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
I love hearing great life changing stories like this. I want to become a mycologist because honestly mushrooms are the best form of medicine (most especially the psychedelic ones) There are so many people today used magic mushrooms to ween off of SSRI medication- its amazing! Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death buddy, lets be honest here.

It's a psychological trait called openness. I have an intense desire to experience everything. This is very tempting to me, but i don't want to run the risk of a bad trip, and it damaging who I am.
I think what happened is back in the primordial times when they didn't have very much food they were trying to survive and they cook the toad on a fire and they inhaled the smoke from it cooking on the fire cuz they were going to eat the toad and it had that effect on them and that's what peaked there interest in the first place. Toads would be really easy to catch and eat.
Actually, my response when he said that was the complete opposite. We *want* the disbelieving part to disappear. Otherwise why even consider going on such a journey in the first place?

That last facilitator really gave me a bad feeling. The fact that he was also taking bufo while administering it to others followed by his "two to tango" comments almost seem like him giving himself plausible deniability.
That's what naive westerners get. Going to some other country and making themselves physically and mentally vulnerable in front of a complete stranger just because he talks "spiritual" mumbo-jumbo. There are predators both in nature and in society. Why is this so hard to understand?
I don't consider myself an overly spiritual person but I do enjoy an occasional psychedelic trip, so I dive into this world from time to time and meet these types of people. I enjoy their company at first, kind and peaceful, oozing love and freedom, but after spending some time with them, I very often find something repulsive, worrying or downright scary in the way they talk, think or behave. That fucking creep at the end gave me the chills because it reminded me of these people and made me realize that in most cases the repulsive thing is their hidden predatoristic vibe (of course I don't mean to generalize but there is certainly a 'type')

It's teh circular thinking. If they're free then so are you and therefore you are allowed whatever transgression as generalized norms don't apply anymore.
I ve met the most narrow minded people after a second glance and often at first glance in the esoteric scene. They often think that they are so tolerante but at the end they are not really only wearing this coat of tolerance and peace.
One of the biggest mistakes I've ever made in my life is taking psychedelics and recommending them to people because I had so many revelations in my own experience. I'm unaware if anyone ever took my advice, but from my last few trips, I now realize that psychedelics are a dice roll on either the best journey you will ever have in your life or the worst mental torture you will ever experience.
@@julietteexll yes, really : believing your own experience summarizes every other experience other humans can have is exactly the kind of mental illness anyone should avoid. if you think about it, you will realize that the europeans who forced christianity onto the native american population had exactly this pattern of thought in mind : "i've been to church since my childhood and it always was good, hey, let's convert these people who do not yet realize our shaman in rome is the more competent one !" besides, if you think a "bad trip" is a problem in itself that should be avoided at any costs, you probably haven't learned much from your "100+ dmt ceremonies"...
I’ve done DMT several times, LSD more times than I can remember, and shrooms a few times. I’ve smoked a lot of weed and a few times had semi-psychedelic experiences. I have had a good amount of bad experiences. I don’t regret a single one or consider it a mistake. They’re are extremely valuable experiences. The contribution they have made to my growth spiritually far surpasses anything I received growing up and I very much needed. Even the bad times. It all matters. If you expected all good, you should stay away from any substance because you’re in for a shock. Bad experiences are inevitable. Balance is necessary. This is just a principle of this reality. I think psychedelics are extremely important for western culture right now, as the lifestyle that is popularized and encouraged is very far from any kind of spirituality and gets further every year. The truth is these substances, or medicines if you prefer, are a very harsh way to wake you up from the haze that no spirituality creates. The traditional way to do this is with meditation and prayer. In various different way. But it’s much slower and more guided. A much safer way to open yourself up. Psychedelics just force you open, so there’s no protection against any negative energies that may come your way, especially if you’re not used to it. They’re not bad. But if you misuse them, you will be punished. If anything, I learned to have respect and love for every part of it. From synthesis to consumption to integration.
I’ve done mushrooms and LSD like close to 100 times and DMT about 30 times and I’ve never had a bad trip. Just lessons and maybe darker vibes but if you just embrace the experience it’s all good I feel like when you don’t let go completely and let the drugs take control is when you have that bad trip.
Shrooms did wonders in my life. I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with OCD. Spent my whole life fighting OCD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder.

I'm so very happy for you, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.

I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!
Yes he's Predroavaro a professional mycologist. Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.

I think that saying, someone allowed them selves to be in a vulnerable position and they bare responsibility for that action is different than saying they deserved something bad or a SA act is their fault. if you walk in the street and get hit by a car, who's at fault? you didn't deserve that, but you chose to walk in the street. bad things and bad people exist in this world. expecting nothing bad will ever happen to anyone or anything is not realistic. you have to actively protect yourself. you don't go spinning around a loaded gun and just expect it will never go off. that's just how i see what he was saying.

I grew up in the Sonoran desert and I know these toads from the wild very well. Two even mated in my pool growing up. I even helped relocate some to a safer part of the desert away from houses and pools after that. People need to leave these toads alone. They are sacred, cool irl, funny friendly and now becoming critically endangered. People have no business doing anything other than respecting the space of these cool animals and letting them be and certainly not messing with them. This whole thing makes me so mad and even the local tribes have no historical shamanic use for these creatures. It's specfically a modern phenom pushed by reporting like this that is not good for the few toads left in the wild. Also they are enormous irl like the size of a small plate and loud asf and smart
Thanks for sharing! They seem like really cool animals. It’s sad that people could have the same effect without the harmful consequences to the toads, just by creating it synthetically (for cheap) and they still won’t! I need to do some more research on why!
Do we really need to endanger those toads because Stacy can't forgive her mom for not buying her happy meal when she was 8 and Benjamin feels uncomfortable when talking to people?
Right, they showed us, now it can be synthesized, leave the frogs alone instead of wiping them out. Humanity is an absolute disgrace I'm ashamed to be a part of it, unfortunately the ones who can make a difference have no shame
The risk of abuse can be prevented if you film the session so if someone think they experienced abuse they can watch the video to see if it was just them tripping.
It doesn't prevent abuse in any way. A recording that provides evidence of what you experienced/and what was done to you while being at your most vulnerable. If s3x assault occurs and you re-watch it, well that is going to be a whole boatload of trauma and re-triggering. If it was all 100 above board then, no worries. There will be that one shaman under the influence of bufo just does what he usually does. It is crazy that people take this risk at all!
Psychedelics will give you a deep glimpse into things you need to work on but essentially you still need to do the work. Take it from someone who has done LSd, Shrooms and DMT

Discernment is one of the toughest lessons on the spiritual path, especially if you are open, optimistic and naive. I used to be but my experiences have made me much more wary and cynical. The reality is, there are very few genuine, 'real deal' healers/ helpers/ teachers at the level of consciousness that's above this nonsense. They are the ones you don't hear about, as they don't have to shout about how enlightened they are. If you are lucky enough to come across such a being and that's part of your journey, it's a real blessing. I'm not sure if there is any point in trying to find them though. If you are meant to meet, you will.
100mg is an INSANE dose. Another dose was definitely not necessary and prob a bad idea. Im glad he said no. 45mg is enough for anyone to leave their body.
We generally dose between 70-100 mg. Bufo at 45 mg is a different experience. We do not consider that breakthrough dosing. Bufo contains small amounts of other alkaloids. You need a large dose to get the neurogenic benefit or you should stick with synthetic to conserve the toad 🐸🫶

Why are peiple paying thousands of dollars to put themselves in such a vuberable state when you can do this at home for a few bucks and have a good friend watch you?
Yeah I have to agree.. 5Meo might be a hard find, but regular DMT is very easy to extract / easier to buy i'd say. Doing it in the comfort of your own home, with things that keep you in this reality for the first trips, at least its not a one time thing like they do here. If you have some DMT you can start slow and work your way up, which in those scenarios, I think would be much better for people to process their trips. You can't be expected to somewhat make sense of an ego death on 100mg of 5meo if you've never taken 20mg of normal DMT, and been able to make sense of it. Eitherways Dr. Gerry giving them 90-100 Mg is absolutely prepostrous. 20 mg is already ego death territory let alone 90-100. The last ceremony with 40-45 mg made more sense, but it is still double the end spectrum of a strong dose. Eitherways if anyone reads this and you think you need to travel around the world to do some ceremonies? No. you dont, all you need is half a gram of dmt, a bong, and however long you desire to experiment, and also, whenever, without the need to travel!
@@maktabahhasanal-basri1068spores are legal and you can grow mushrooms. Just watch some videos on it, it's not hard. No need to go to a relatively dangerous country and trip with people you just met.
Exactly! When I journey, I know exactly who I want to sit for me (my closest and most awakened friends). I prefer to not be around strangers, and I don't want as close to sensory deprivation as possible (e.g., no sounds, no lights, etc.). At home or in a sacred place I know of, I can control all of these things. And yeah, the cost is way, way cheaper when you acquire the medicine yourself.
I've had a bad Ayahuasca experience after my 6th ceremony. I've suffered PTSD for about 2-3 months after but this is fine with me. I don't regret anything and I'm grateful for it now. This sometimes is a part of the psychedelic experience and you have to be aware of this.
*Big pharma been lying to us for a decades now,DMT are they only substance that eased my depression,PTSD and trauma.I can point to you this dude who delivers em to my address with no hassle,he's operations are secure and ship's discreetly across boarders*
When doing psychedelics, ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS bring a friend you can TRUST 1000%, SIMPLE!!! Same goes with if you are at a club, drinking and getting stupid.
The last shaman blaming the victim for what she was wearing, that so dangerous. The body has nothing to do with this kind of trips. How dare you to touch a person in a state of unconsciousness and also blame the clothes they she was wearing?
I think as a spiritual shaman, he meant to imply that we are in a way responsible for everything that happens to us, whether if it’s just or not. That is part of what he is here to teach with his medicine, that there are things we cannot control but still we should try to individually heal our deep ancestral wounds that may be keeping us trapped in a negative cycle and eventually learn to take action to break free of that cycle. Of course simultaneously he is also human and he demonstrated his macho cultural understanding which unfortunately is what it is and may have been naturally reacting defensively to the accusatory tone of the journalist.. but still I do understand his point from a spiritual perspective.
Rape culture in medicine circles is much more common than you may think. Ive sat in a handful of circles and am somewhat connected to my local medicine community but im not the most familiar/popular person here at all. Even ive heard several stories of circles that get wrapped into a cult like experience where women are manipulated and taken advantage of. Men are often pushed away which thats a big red flag if your facilitator is turning down men from joining "because the medicine said that it wasnt the right time for you" meanwhile not turning away any women lol. One girl i know got pulled in and next thing she knew she was living alone somewhere else, isolated, and her "shaman" was controlling her diet constatnly, guilting and shaming her for questioning whats going on, etc. I stick to my circle and dont care to find a new one. It is held by both a woman and a man at the same time and I feel very safe and cared for in their presence during the ceremonies ive done.
Every ceremony Ive ever seen or participated in was conducted with both genders looking out for each other. Go to church if ya wanna get raped😑. Solutions in the us aren’t.
I've done bufo 3 times, while at an Iboga treatment center in Baja California Mexico. There are places that do it for way less $175, more like $25-$50. I am an addict, have mental health issues, and complex PTSD from all the trauma I've gone thru. My experiences were all good, thankfully. I cried harder then I ever let myself normally do every time and I felt soooo much better after. Calmer, less depressed. But as a woman, I would not recommend letting a man you don't know administer bufo to you. The 3rd time I did it I hesitantly let one of the men there do my ceremony, but my hesitance came from my overall distrust of men. I had known him for almost a month and it went ok. I cannot believe that supposed shaman that the journalist went to. First he definitely should not be taking a hit himself before administering it. 2nd, he sounded like a sexual predator in the integration session. Wtf.
Wow you knew a guy for over a FULL MONTH and let him do your ceremony?! Sounds like u put an awfull lot of trust in strangers. I wouldn't ever take hallucinogens but i came across this vid and watched it just amazed at the insane things people do. Like the girl halfway the vid almost drowned if it weren't for those 2 'experts' dragging her back ashore. The girl was completely gone from this world mentally, no coherent body coordination. Can't believe someone would consider this stuff as healing. Your lucky if you don't go in a full blown psychosis after this shite.
Do not ever stop taking antidepressants or antipsychotics or mood stabilizers, cold turkey...never ever. Always talk to your doctor about weening off before changing anything.
This is true. Can't speak for many but my docs have alway switched me off cold turkey never tapered. I had to tell them to do it. Mum's a nurse has seen patients on high doses of meds just cut off without a second thought of withdrawl
I stopped cold turkey..i had withdraws for a month to 2 months..just hots and cold symptems and fogginess and i never told my dr..im fine till this day
@michelledanko3059 I'm glad you're fine, but just because you're okay does not mean that other people will have the same experience. People's bodies and minds react differently to medication changes. Stopping cold turkey can lead to a roller coaster of emotional changes in some people, and has been the cause of suicide. Again, just because one person stopped cold turkey and says they're fine, does not mean the next person will have the same experience. Seek the advice of your prescriber first, always.
I always find it funny how people always involve "talk to your doctor" about weening off medication while literally no doc has any clue about getting off medication . Don't get me wrong i totally agree with not suddenly stopping meds (usually) but for most not taking your anti depressant for a couple of days is fine . We ain't talking about benzo's here like that would be a completely different story .
@chandler-yx4xp "Literally" every Medical Doctor and Psychiatrist in the United States has studied pharmacology extensively. Your opinion is baseless and reckless. Stopping antidepressants cold turkey is a dangerous thing to do. Talking to a doctor in regard to weening off is always the right move.
I really don't know how i found this video but there must be a reason. I've worked with Rodrigo several times. I will be forever grateful for his work. I've never had bliss ceremonies, only hard ones and he was completely dedicated to the process. I totally don't agree with what he said regarding the skirt, but don't forget that a shaman is not God, at the end of the day he is still a human. And he still has lessons to learn. If you ever have the chance to have this experience do it when you feel completely safe and trust your intuition. May we all have the courage to sive deep in this process of healing! 🙏

I had done many psychedelics in my 20s, in my 30s when my mental health got a lot worse I had to stop psychedelics as I would have a horrible experience on them. I have had psychosis, not through taking psychedelics (jeez how many times am I going to say psychedelics)through mental health and abusing alcohol to try and get away from my mental issue and trauma. At 42 I now meditate, have acupuncture and go to yoga, I also go to CBT groups and DPT groups which all have helped greatly with my mental health struggles and addiction to alcohol. I would never touch a psychedelic again as my mind can not take something like that anymore, I have way to much trauma to now go back down that road and come out of it safely.

Giving someone 100 mg on their first trip it’s absolutely crazy. I don’t doubt about those allegations on dr Gerry because he looked pretty unprofessional
I was given 100mg for my first and only bufo experience. it was terrifying, but also beautiful. i would say it was definitely a positive experience however i have had no desire to do it again. i got some minor re-activation the night of the experience but other than that i would say the entire thing faded away and was forgotten pretty quick
I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxiety Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment psilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Can you help with the reliable source I really appreciate it Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Spain. Really need
They saved you from death bud, lets be honest here. and mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet i wish people would all realize. they could solve a lot of problems, more than just mental treatments, environmental clean up; the possibilities are endless with fungus
the irony of this girl apologising for not being able to let go of her ego, you don't need to apologise to anyone and this level of awareness only comes from deep self reflection and introspection. you don't have to apologise and blame yourself because you think you're not meeting peoples expectations of that journey or something
Her apologizing is a symptom of her ego. Why profusely apologies when you can change? Just saying the word sorry doesn't give you the excuse to act however.
I was with Dr. Sandoval for my Bufo experience and he was the epitome of care and observation. My experience was 100% transformative and life changing even several years later to now. Its not for every one and I will never do it again, but it has changed my life for the better. Be discerning and go where you will be ethically and medically. supported.
@@marsrover001 I've used the synthetic DMT that can be obtained on the black market here in California, USA. In my experience it is the real deal and is as safe as any deep examination of your self can be. It is defiantly NOT a party drug.
It's so hard watching others struggle when I do myself. I know that pain that woman felt about having cycles. My life is one continuous cycle of chaotic events that have tested the limit of my existence. God bless her.
trauma keeps you in cycles, your brain will always seek ehatnits used to, not what is good. but that also means theres help!!! 😊 get into bagus nerve stimulation and try to find out for urself how those patterns serve you..
Holy crap-- what a scary situation you discovered and thank you for revealing it. Hearing this man compare getting raped to falling down is so scary. So a man face-raping a woman is the same as him falling down by himself? Or is it the same for a woman? If she falls down, it's the same thing as getting raped? However horrifying these attitudes and gaslighting seem, this is pretty much how being a woman in society always has been until fairly recently with "me too." Women didn't and don't report this stuff because we're either told "you're imagining it" or blaming us for the trauma men seem to be okay with.
I fully agree that that is completely wrong. But I do wonder if what he is saying is that a woman gives consent while high, being that they are both high. Who is wrong at that point once you have entered a situation with a man that is tripping and agreed to join the trip and is it just sex or some sort of violent rape?
Well, if you're a woman who goes to a foreign country to do drugs alone with a complete stranger then, yes, you must be pretty stupid to put yourself in that situation.
*DMT have been the actual true remedies that eased my depression and anxiety,lucky have got entangled with this dude who shoots Mushrooms an other psychs safety to my location with no hassle*
It happens a lot and ppl don’t talk about it due to shame and defies the current popular narrative that it’s a sexy, alluring cure all (illicit). Even MAPS covers up abuse and skews results. Check out Cover Story podcast for proof.
As a health professional its so incredibly frightening that these "shamans" have absolutely zero safety considerations in place for mental or physical health. THIS is exactly why we need some type of regulation for this work.
It is NOT work. It's just some people going to a foreign country to do drugs. People should be able to take responsibility for their own actions and not expect daddy government always be there for them imposing rules. If you can't take care of yourself, don't do drugs.
Like anything that works, feels good or stops symptoms here in America (home of the free) it is illegal other than some trials under medical therapy sessions. Not all but most negative effects are due to legality. In 1920 you could buy heroin and many other drugs from sears catalogs. No major epidemic then. Just adults free to make their own choices.
There is a medical professional in this documentary. Dr Gerry. He spent 12 years going to medical school / residencies becoming an obgyn. Are you a doctor too? As far as mental health goes I’m getting my masters and work as a therapist with our clients. When I am done with my masters and licensure I probably won’t do this work because of the liability. Which is how many medical / mental health professionals feel - which is even more kudos to Dr Gerry. I agree with you drop the shamanism and move to a clinical model
@luke5100 I just generally think lowly of Vice. Do you remember how hard they pushed weed-legalization content, BEFORE it was legalized in the states where they have offices? They got their right to that freedom, and then they just stopped caring. People are still going to jail for that.
Mainstream media can show someone straight up shooting heroin and won't get demonitised . Whereas Adam literally bleeps out names and doesn't show anything and does actual harm reduction and gets shadow banned and demonitised It's sad
Prob cause this is done under the guise of investigative journalism and adams channel has a lot of personal anecdotes and character arcs that invite whoever’s watching to also personally relate instead of watching thirds person
Psychedelic can help your addictions and depression if you try micro dosing, I strongly recommend that you try it and I have a trained mycologist that will give you a good trip
5 meo dmt is not the psychedelic to begin with as it is extremely powerful. Interestingly as or even more potent because much longer lasting you don't find much about iboga. Nevertheless psilocybin has a huge scientific backup.
I think this is the best way to look at it. Anything good in this world can be used and abused, we should not be demonizing the substance in this case imo
People who are administering they should never be under the influence. And definitely if somebody is on this it is not their fault what takes place during it because the other people are there to keep them safe. And thank you for bringing that to light for everyone that is listening to your video. I never used that specific stuff but when I used substances in my younger years people would take advantage during those times when you were out of control. People who are supposed to be there to keep the ladies safe. Also I was truly questioning the allowance to go out into the water and float. While in a state where you're really not capable of handling yourself. All that would take is one wrong move and people not watching at that time.
You’re watching a corporatized version of bufo. In traditional shamanic ceremonies, it’s not uncommon for the shaman to take the medicine to guide you on your journey. It’s something you won’t understand until you experience it. That realm of our mind is reserved for those who want to go there, and there are many shaman (professionals) who can guide you.
@@TheSunshineGroup Exactly, I was about to reply that. In traditional shamanic ceremonies the common thing is for the shaman to take the medicine too to connect easier with you and guide you if needed.
I completely disagree with you. For thousands of years it has been common for shamans to also be under the influence at the same time. Why? So that they can be on the same wavelength and help guide the person better. Most Westerners do not understand these things because they're so used to the protocols of allopathic-medicine - which, unfortunately, almost always creates a sense of distance between the healer and the healed.

My experience on DMT was life changing in a good/bad way i thought i died and got in a thought loop of it in a dark room with figures dancing around me before i came too i thought about everyone i cared about.. then went back to a very colorful place that was the end of tripping for me. About a year after that experience i did some shrooms not my first time and had a very bad anxiety attack and can hardly smoke weed anymore without having anxiety.. didn't help me with anything just made me relize that family is more important that getting high and gambling with you life
I think this is what a lot of people underestimate. It can help in some ways, but also harm. I indeed find psychedelics calming, but it sure can be traumatizing and make you guess if you really learned something you did not already know
Oh, I think the preparation rituals are very important.You can't be prepared enough to face something you're too weak to confront. It's a great idea to get people into a relaxed state first.

It's been 3 years since I tripped on DMT, can't find a plug anywhere in my area. Back then, We used one of those vaporizers with the big bags. The first time I didn't do enough and I just seen shapes and colours. But the second time I managed to get another hit in before I got the light headed. I remember floating above the country side flying and then all of a sudden I zoomed down into a deer and went right inside of it and I was the veins and the blood and flowing through this deers body. It was very strange lol
The experience I had is unexplainable it's out of the world, it got my mind of anxiety and healing prosperities of DMTand other psychedelic products are underrated, you don't have to be skeptical about the use of psychedelic products like magic mushroom and more, you'll get clarity and an open mind
The hallucinations you get from DMT looks as real as what you perceive to be real, it's so beautiful and almost unbelievable because I didn't know it was humanly possible to experience something like that.
I was staying with an indigenous comminity in the jungle in Ecuador and I participated in 2 Aiahuasca ceremonies (I didnt take any), and the shaman took the tea with the other person. The idea is that the shaman is helpping you with the journey. And honestly, although the shaman took the Aiahuasca as well, he was still pretty lucid.
The fact dr gerry does not film the experience so that if an allegation occurs he would have evidence is really worrying, my first thought was to show someone who thought you had hurt them, the reality of what happened, freeing them from the trauma they realized never happened, but no
Great doc! The commodification of spirituality has clearly peaked - we now have a fast food equivalent of enlightenment being sold at a strip mall LOL. I think this is a good place to share a quote from the late religious scholar Huston Smith, “The goal of spiritual life is not altered states, but altered traits.”.

as someone who has self-medicated for years, since i was a teenager, but also sought intensive PTSD/inpatient therapies as a young adult, who has plenty experience with MDMA, DMT, shrooms, and acid -- what makes me ponder the most about things like this, is just how truly vacant some of our hearts are. that we live in a stasis that doesn't harbor gratitude, self-care and self-love, that doesn't teach us throughout our lives the things that really matter to us as individuals, what heals us and makes us whole, what makes us the best version of ourselves to give to the world and to our loved ones. there is something all these people are looking for to be solved, a hole that needs filling, a lost heart that needs guidance, a voice that needs to feel heard. we're all just doing our best with the little we have, hoping to just survive another day through it all. only thing i can hope is that very few people are harmed, and that the practice gets safer for everyone.
I believe we are all trying fill a hole that can’t come from any of the things the world offers. We can let thy food be our medicine, but we should remember who created that food. Creation is a beautiful thing, but to disregard the Creator is the reason why we are all lost and seeking. We all have God sized holes in our hearts. We need a relationship with Him, and he wants that too.
its amazing what that one word 'shrooms' does to de-legitimize the value of a concept or comment in my head when I hear it. Like, if you added the letters "mu" in front of shrooms I picture you as an old enlightened wise wizard master on a mountaintop, and without the "mu" in front of 'shrooms', I picture a kid with tie dye in their 20's in their room.
@probityk If you're referring to our lack of gratitude and love, seeking to fill the void, and achieving these things specifically through the use of those tools, I fully blame the drug war for whitewashing the value they posses. Hard to form a connection with the metaphysical and alter consciousness when your life is being threatened for wanting to explore the innate desire. Some folks do easily harbor gratitude and self love. Others need to seek it constantly. Sometimes i'm confused which folks are generating it because it flows natural or if their seeking it because it's hard for them to experience.
@@autumnruch33 I like that description. I also feel like you're referencing something so profoundly bigger than what should be phrased with words like "Him" and "he wants". The image of a human always threw me off. Or is it more of a metaphor, and is it accepted that, maybe, that's, like the only form our brains can comprehend? He created everything, yet has an opinion on me? Would he be angry if I don't utilize a capital letter when referencing his name? I mean, not even just the actual name, but also prepositions and any form of referencing? I personally feel like I do the opposite of deny the creator. I am forever searching for a more in depth explanation that the one I've been previously provided.
Without endorsing one side of the allegation or the other, and without judging anyone, if a person has CPR performed on them, it breaks many ribs and possibly the sternum. If you had CPR performed on you, there would be zero doubt about it after waking up and you’d immediately need to go to an emergency room. I have zero doubt that she felt she experienced it that way… she was on an extreme hallucinatory, after all. That makes it incredibly hard to sort out what people experienced on their trip and what actually happened, which is dangerous for everyone involved.
i obviously cant state with 100% certainty that what the sjaman was saying is true but being on such a power psychedelic an ego death could in your mind probably translate to actual death also the part about wanting to get naked while tripping... very true
@@MeatCatCheesyBlaster mostly because I don’t want to be around psychedelic drugs or people who think they should take it especially after hearing the horror stories of those who had very negative experiences or reactions. If you want to take it that’s your choice but the risks outweigh any “benefits”. No thanks.
When I took bufo the shaman was very specific that anyone at the ceremony needed to tell him if they were on medication. He was adamant that people on SSRIs and other antidepressants should not take bufo
Would you say your experiences resulted in a net gain within your life? If contrary, would you advocate for the further uses of these substances understanding there are those who are susceptible to negative reactions? Does the common theme of this substance then rely on a dice roll and/or how one's self reacts to the experience? Would this still not be leading others to walk down into a lava pit just to roast a marshmallow?
@@minecraftaddict43 my experience was a net positive, it was scary and confusing, but spiritually profound and enriching. I don’t know if I’m an advocate for it, but I think it’s worth researching more, and then maybe people can have a more calculated approach to the risk vs rewards it can offer.
@@Zach-ls1if where do your ideas on what happens within spiritual realm stand on? As in, if the spiritual realm is real, which it is, is there an objective sense of good and evil within? Can something that is evil within the spiritual masquerade itself as good and deceive many? Vice versa, can something masquerade itself as evil and be objectively good? Ying-yang would be excluded, due to conflicting definitions of good being in bad and bad being in good, since something within the spiritual can ONLY EITHER be good or bad and no other. Would it then be necessary in being cautious approaching a spiritual realm in which we can only define via our earthly definitions? What are we doing within the spiritual realm when we are allowing other potentially good or bad spirits to inhibit our senses and occupy our bodies? Do they linger within and not pay rent? Do they devise wicked and cunning works against us as we sleep because we let them in? Is it safe wandering into a realm in which we know barely anything about? Curiosity is a major driving factor that attracts many people to pursue these experiences; but at what cost do we pay for our experiences? Excluded, we can be the healthiest human and psychologically apt to undertake such an experience and relay it to others, but that is still defining the matter within the physical. What price are we paying each and every time that we wander into a spiritual realm that we know nothing of, excluding physical? Do spiritual beings extort people being new to these encounters and mimic the things that they see here upon the earth, taking advantage of those who know no better and yet keeping those that are experienced within their control? Is there spiritual extortion taking place that we are unaware of because we do not have the capability to understand such spiritual matters? Is it even correct to begin to define an extraterrestrial-spiritual realm by earthly concepts? So then again I must ask, where do your ideas of what happens within the spiritual realm, and where do your concepts of good and evil stand on?
The Lord Jesus Christ is the ultimate good within the spiritual realm. He is the only one who protects you within the spiritual and He wants you to accept Him as your Lord and Saviour today! Repent of your dead works and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, believe that He is God and accept His gift of eternal salvation, and confess Him as your Lord and Saviour. All others will spiritually use and abuse you, then throw you away into hell. Its a scary thing to wander into a realm that you have no idea about and not be protected. Seek Him sir, you've been deceived by all these drugs and shamans
Wow, his response when he asked "Isn't it dangerous for people to just stop taking their medications before coming? The 'Shamans' response "Yeah well maybe if they were suicidal before they might become suicidal again?" Like there's way more risk than that, just stopping certain medications for some people will kill them... I get that they're trying to help people but I think it should be someone with more overall knowledge than the guy in the beginning providing the ceremonies
SSRI’s are counteracting with bufo. No risk of any kind. It only increases one’s tolerance for bufo breakthroughs and a patient under SSRI’s will likely require higher dose.
This sounds like a rad vacation tbh. Shoutout to the interviewer for asking the hard questions about this! And for trying it out.

Psilocybin mushrooms saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone, Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues,
Psilocybin freed me from a life of substance abuse,depression, victim mentality, emotional & mental prison. Trying to get my serotonin/ dopamine levels corrected is my current struggle.
It feels amazing to know about psychedelics all thanks to this online store I was able to get some mushrooms and they got some lsd gummies cannabis xtc and another stuffs
I have a really hard time imagining our mind releasing different chemicals that alter our interpretation of the world as us "going somewhere else." You are just experiencing something that's already there in this world, but in a way your body doesn't naturally. edit: It's clear these sessions should be recorded for the clients. You can hallucinate anything, or he can use hallucinations to gaslight. So much unsafe practices happening here. I always enjoy and appreciate the drug related Vice documentaries, and particularly like Matt Shea's work.
Psychedelic therapy is just one of those great leaps in the mental health space . It's wonderful and the fact that they serve recreational use and health as well. I can't deny tripping is fun every once in a while.

Something that Hamilton Morris has pointed out is that the demand for Bufo venom is driving the toad to extinction. This is a pointless ecological catastrophe because the drug itself (5MeO DMT) can be synthesized, with chemicals available legally in Mexico and at a very low cost per dose.
Unfortunately, the psychedelic community is full of people who aren't great at logical thinking and they think it is somehow necessary to use a natural product instead of a synthetic drug despite the chemical equivalency of both forms.
I saw that video and I agree. We need to leave the poor toads alone

and i don't feel like these allies 'fix' anything. the only thing that can 'fix' you is you. but they do lend insight as the root to the problems. and give guidance on what steps to take next. it also depends on your intention going into these journeys. u get out what u put in.
100%
It might be helpful as part of the healing process but it's not going to cure your mental illness
I agree, you have to be willing to change in order for you to end ur own suffering, like the buddha said “Be your own savior”
100% agree. with this second huge wave of psychedelics coming into the main stream and people using them for "medicinal" reasons, the purpose and power of psychedelics are getting lost. it can open your eyes temporarily and assist with making changes, but the real work is done every day while sober. you can learn everything from the universe during a trip but it really doesn't mean anything if it can't be applied in real life. like if the only way a person can get to an enlightened state is through drugs, then are they really enlightened? ive also experimented with psychedelics and found them detrimental in some ways, since your consciousness is so heightened during a trip, when you come down it can feel like life is too hard to live, or that the journey to get to where you wanna be spiritually is too far away. this isn't in this video specifically, but i've seen a lot of people recommending psychedelics to everyone and that they can "help anyone that tries them" but this is misinformation and doesn't take into account mental health issues, trauma, and even a person's genetics. i'm just commenting cause i thought i was the only one that felt this way. it's comforting on some level to know other people see that it really is just a quick fix that doesn't last forever or magically fix a person's perspective or life.
@@YouAreDreamingRightNow That is correct. Psychedelics aren't a fix to trauma as I would know with C-PTSD. They do not cure it, but they will give you guidance, healing and new viewpoints. Then we have to do the work ourselves, which surely is not always easy. Changing others is impossible, changing yourself is hard too.
I remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with bipolar. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 4years and still counting.

Yes, that's his name.

I believe this would be life changing, just searched and found his telegram and TikTok. Does anyone know if he ships?
Are we just going to ignore the fact that the shaman just ignored and even reinforced the claims about abuse and assault during such psychedelic ceremonies? This was a very powerful documentary, but it truly shocked me how ignorant and unaware the "so-called" guides were about these allegations. The audacity to say that the women are at fault for "creating a reaction" in the man is so banal and absurd.
That Shaman he interviewed on the beach seemed to have ethical practices, having a female present and being administered in a public space, for examples.
I think it was good that Matt found, but trusted, a shadier one for his own trip. It gave a good contrast.
I would have preferred the second one, myself, but I'm male. Except that he gave a lower dose.
Yeah I was surprised that this wasn't the main subject of the documentary.
He chose the most expensive retreat. The shaman did not stay sober.
When asked, he said that women who experience assault in this environment have themselves to blame.
And he reiterated that after being given a chance to hide behind a 'language barrier ' by his colleague.
Deadass just did the classic “they were asking for it, because they wore clothes I liked”
To be fair I just watched the last two minutes after I made that comment - and he did surface that himself.
But really.. that's the opening scene imo.
soft bro. its their culture. open ya mind like this documentary. wake up
Spanish is my first and main language, I can certify that there was nothing lost onin translation here. He understood the question and answered it honestly based on his views. The majority of the world still has a lot to learn around victim blaming. Claiming he’s a man as if that justifies him from having any responsibility or control over his impulses… geeeeeeeeez. Comparing rape to falling while walking in a cave. No, no. One is an accident. Another is an intentional, meditated, and voluntary horrendous crime perpetrated and justified by monsters. Good luck getting your bufo to heal you from that. As for Vice, excellent documentary and we should also add information on the impact this practice is having on the toads. Thanks for your work!
it's crazy one of the most important things psychedelics have tought me is to have control over my urges, not that i'd ever touch a woman but in general with drugs, alcohol, smoking etc
That dude made Gerry seem like a Saint
And where was his openness of conscience and union with the pacha mama? Did he also go on the trip?
Y su apertura de conciencia y unión con la pacha mamá donde quedó? También se fue en el viaje? 😮
All decisions come with risk. Humans often overlook risk in their decision making when they are desperate.
I think two questions are being asked here.
One is moral, the other is legal.
Should women be more careful, men more gallant, the world more safe, and who should be legally culpable for a crime that we (rightfully) consider a crime?
An ideal world would have no suffering. A preferable world would see that this industry get regulated to hell and back.
so if you are a woman, and you are getting ready to go on such a experience where you are going to be vulnerable.. wouldnt it be a good idea to bring a third party (a friend) thats gonna wach over you?
how are you just jumping into stuff with no regard? ofc the man that takes advantage is at fault, but if you are aware that this kind of stuff is happening, why wouldnt u take precautions?
for example, i lock my door everytime i leave the house.. even tho it would be wrong for someone to enter my house and steal all my stuff.. i still cant just leave my door open.
would u blame me if i had no door at all, i went to work and came back with all my belongings missing.. would u victim blame me?

The reason I feel such an ick for this type of neo spirituality is not the drugs, it’s the extreme push for trusting and open up to ppl you literally do not know. It feels like unnatutal closeness, forceful intemacy, and if you feel uncomfortable it’s bc you’re ”narrow minded”. It opens up for a lot of abuse in these circles
Right.. and you don't meet this person you'll be knocked out next to til after you already paid 20k.. people feel pressured to change their minds if they feel uncomfortable. Especially if they flew from another country.
I think it's irresponsible for Vice to talk about bufo and not talk about the toad's threat to survival due to the overharvesting by these neoshamans. The toad is extremely important to the Yaqui tribes and they have asked to use synthetic 5 M3O for ten years so the population can come back 🙏🏻

Since I tired psychedelics for the first time, I’ve been trying to describe the experience to others so there can try it as well, but i couldn’t find the right words to describe it.

I preferred to let go so I could experience bufo to the fullest, so I did.
Agreed.
I just found that video and was like: what? Bufo? What's that? There is nothing stronger than 5-MeO-DMT and yes, what they call "Bufo" is exactly 5-MeO, so gotta admit the fact that it is a bit dangerous to consume a substance you really know nothing about more than just anecdotal evidence. Shout out to Colorado Toad and Ayahuasca shaman experience.
@ElinaGrande could u go into a more detailed description of one of these trips? Genuinely curious
how scary it is to think that some people go completely alone into and experience like this just trusting their luck. At the end of the video the woman and that guy totally revealed themselves and their disgusting predatory behaviour
Yeah that was crazy. That shaman understood what he was asking him. That bastard basically admitted to raping people when they're helpless..even if a woman happens to have a rape fantasy let's say, she should be getting rid of it by using Bufo. The Shaman should just be there to help protect ppl that's it.
what do you mean? i didnt get that feeling at all... its not crazy to assume someone had a crazy reaction and slipped off her bikini top.. and then didnt realize she did it when she came back to reality... edit: oh ok nvm you were talking about the shaman at the end end, not the first shamans.
If he did mean to say that a woman is to blame for her raping if all she did was wear a mini skirt and have a slight sexual energy about them, then that's insanely worrying.
If he's just saying don't trust the first guy you see with literally your whole mind and body, then yeah.. Absolutely! (Maybe he's even thinking about / pointing out specific shady shamans)
Didn't come off like that though tbh. Very creepy...

You totally explained my time with psychedelics. I am female, and this tended to happen most times when I want with my triping buddy. Creepy

One of the biggest mistakes I've ever made in my life is taking psychedelics and recommending them to people because I had so many revelations in my own experience. I'm unaware if anyone ever took my advice, but from my last few trips, I now realize that psychedelics are a dice roll on either the best journey you will ever have in your life or the worst mental torture you will ever experience.
Not really I’ve done 100+ dmt ceremonies and have never had a bad trip but because I’ve done it with shamans
@@julietteexll yes, really : believing your own experience summarizes every other experience other humans can have is exactly the kind of mental illness anyone should avoid.

besides, if you think a "bad trip" is a problem in itself that should be avoided at any costs, you probably haven't learned much from your "100+ dmt ceremonies"...
@@julietteexll You are very fortunate.
I’ve done DMT several times, LSD more times than I can remember, and shrooms a few times. I’ve smoked a lot of weed and a few times had semi-psychedelic experiences. I have had a good amount of bad experiences. I don’t regret a single one or consider it a mistake. They’re are extremely valuable experiences. The contribution they have made to my growth spiritually far surpasses anything I received growing up and I very much needed. Even the bad times. It all matters. If you expected all good, you should stay away from any substance because you’re in for a shock. Bad experiences are inevitable. Balance is necessary. This is just a principle of this reality. I think psychedelics are extremely important for western culture right now, as the lifestyle that is popularized and encouraged is very far from any kind of spirituality and gets further every year. The truth is these substances, or medicines if you prefer, are a very harsh way to wake you up from the haze that no spirituality creates. The traditional way to do this is with meditation and prayer. In various different way. But it’s much slower and more guided. A much safer way to open yourself up. Psychedelics just force you open, so there’s no protection against any negative energies that may come your way, especially if you’re not used to it. They’re not bad. But if you misuse them, you will be punished. If anything, I learned to have respect and love for every part of it. From synthesis to consumption to integration.
I’ve done mushrooms and LSD like close to 100 times and DMT about 30 times and I’ve never had a bad trip. Just lessons and maybe darker vibes but if you just embrace the experience it’s all good I feel like when you don’t let go completely and let the drugs take control is when you have that bad trip.

Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!

I think that saying, someone allowed them selves to be in a vulnerable position and they bare responsibility for that action is different than saying they deserved something bad or a SA act is their fault. if you walk in the street and get hit by a car, who's at fault? you didn't deserve that, but you chose to walk in the street. bad things and bad people exist in this world. expecting nothing bad will ever happen to anyone or anything is not realistic. you have to actively protect yourself. you don't go spinning around a loaded gun and just expect it will never go off. that's just how i see what he was saying.

I grew up in the Sonoran desert and I know these toads from the wild very well. Two even mated in my pool growing up. I even helped relocate some to a safer part of the desert away from houses and pools after that. People need to leave these toads alone. They are sacred, cool irl, funny friendly and now becoming critically endangered. People have no business doing anything other than respecting the space of these cool animals and letting them be and certainly not messing with them. This whole thing makes me so mad and even the local tribes have no historical shamanic use for these creatures. It's specfically a modern phenom pushed by reporting like this that is not good for the few toads left in the wild. Also they are enormous irl like the size of a small plate and loud asf and smart
Thanks for sharing! They seem like really cool animals. It’s sad that people could have the same effect without the harmful consequences to the toads, just by creating it synthetically (for cheap) and they still won’t! I need to do some more research on why!
Totally agree! Glad you shared that!!!
Right on. It’s not like they get to express their grievances and it’s important for people to care. ❤
Do we really need to endanger those toads because Stacy can't forgive her mom for not buying her happy meal when she was 8 and Benjamin feels uncomfortable when talking to people?
Right, they showed us, now it can be synthesized, leave the frogs alone instead of wiping them out. Humanity is an absolute disgrace I'm ashamed to be a part of it, unfortunately the ones who can make a difference have no shame
The risk of abuse can be prevented if you film the session so if someone think they experienced abuse they can watch the video to see if it was just them tripping.
It doesn't prevent abuse in any way. A recording that provides evidence of what you experienced/and what was done to you while being at your most vulnerable. If s3x assault occurs and you re-watch it, well that is going to be a whole boatload of trauma and re-triggering. If it was all 100 above board then, no worries. There will be that one shaman under the influence of bufo just does what he usually does. It is crazy that people take this risk at all!
Psychedelics will give you a deep glimpse into things you need to work on but essentially you still need to do the work. Take it from someone who has done LSd, Shrooms and DMT

Meditate.
I've met the last "shaman" and know him. One of the most egoistic personalities I've ever encountered and he is 100% in for the money. That's why he works where he does.

The comments of that last "shaman" needs to be a warning to everyone going into these things. He speaks of the experience of going into a cave. He is the rabid bat within.
And this 'retreat' was the most expensive....lots of novelty nonsense beforehand too for show. That 'shaman' has no moral compass and very worrying he's in a position of power over vulnerable people
That guy embodies the stereo type of the seedy guy at a psy trance festival.
@@penelope5079 You and the commenter above may be the only people who watched all the way through. I scanned the comments to see if there might be confirming or consonant messages, but they just want to put in their 2 cents about psychedelics and their personal experiences. All the while, there is a guy on this video that is justifying predation and assault of the worst kind. There is a desperate attempt to rehabilitate the comments by the "retreat leader," but if claims were allegations, and allegations were criminal complaints, a prosecutor would definitely have a use for this video.
@@Cletus_the_Elder Exactly, truly horrifying and disgusting mindset. This is the kind of person leading people into their healing journeys in one of the strongest substances? For fuck's sake. If I ever did bufo I would only go to women only retreats with women shamans.
@@Cletus_the_Elder exactly. I may be biased due to multiple encounters with some of the most delusional and egotistical 'spiritual' teachers/ healers/ shamans etc....i can see through them instantly and the nonsense they are spouting. Although I run a mile, I really feel for the folk who don't have the discernment to be able to suss them out. Discernment is one of the toughest lessons on the spiritual path, especially if you are open, optimistic and naive. I used to be but my experiences have made me much more wary and cynical. The reality is, there are very few genuine, 'real deal' healers/ helpers/ teachers at the level of consciousness that's above this nonsense. They are the ones you don't hear about, as they don't have to shout about how enlightened they are. If you are lucky enough to come across such a being and that's part of your journey, it's a real blessing. I'm not sure if there is any point in trying to find them though. If you are meant to meet, you will.
100mg is an INSANE dose. Another dose was definitely not necessary and prob a bad idea. Im glad he said no. 45mg is enough for anyone to leave their body.
thank you, somebody with sense 😂
Sensitivity varies widely from one person to the next. For sure 100mg is far too much for many people.
We generally dose between 70-100 mg. Bufo at 45 mg is a different experience. We do not consider that breakthrough dosing. Bufo contains small amounts of other alkaloids. You need a large dose to get the neurogenic benefit or you should stick with synthetic to conserve the toad 🐸🫶
Sounds like you talking from experience lol
@@katesandoval_mc I've never done the synthetic version, but from what I've heard said about it the experience is nothing like the bufo experience. Honestly the synthetic sounds terrible.
Why are peiple paying thousands of dollars to put themselves in such a vuberable state when you can do this at home for a few bucks and have a good friend watch you?
Literally this….. I don’t get it
Yeah I have to agree.. 5Meo might be a hard find, but regular DMT is very easy to extract / easier to buy i'd say. Doing it in the comfort of your own home, with things that keep you in this reality for the first trips, at least its not a one time thing like they do here. If you have some DMT you can start slow and work your way up, which in those scenarios, I think would be much better for people to process their trips. You can't be expected to somewhat make sense of an ego death on 100mg of 5meo if you've never taken 20mg of normal DMT, and been able to make sense of it. Eitherways Dr. Gerry giving them 90-100 Mg is absolutely prepostrous. 20 mg is already ego death territory let alone 90-100. The last ceremony with 40-45 mg made more sense, but it is still double the end spectrum of a strong dose.
Eitherways if anyone reads this and you think you need to travel around the world to do some ceremonies? No. you dont, all you need is half a gram of dmt, a bong, and however long you desire to experiment, and also, whenever, without the need to travel!
How can a regular person get it tho
@@maktabahhasanal-basri1068spores are legal and you can grow mushrooms. Just watch some videos on it, it's not hard. No need to go to a relatively dangerous country and trip with people you just met.
Exactly! When I journey, I know exactly who I want to sit for me (my closest and most awakened friends). I prefer to not be around strangers, and I don't want as close to sensory deprivation as possible (e.g., no sounds, no lights, etc.). At home or in a sacred place I know of, I can control all of these things. And yeah, the cost is way, way cheaper when you acquire the medicine yourself.
I've had a bad Ayahuasca experience after my 6th ceremony. I've suffered PTSD for about 2-3 months after but this is fine with me. I don't regret anything and I'm grateful for it now. This sometimes is a part of the psychedelic experience and you have to be aware of this.

The last shaman blaming the victim for what she was wearing, that so dangerous. The body has nothing to do with this kind of trips. How dare you to touch a person in a state of unconsciousness and also blame the clothes they she was wearing?
also, very interesting the video and the conclusions. nice video. putting all thhe cards on the table
I agree. Terrible
I think as a spiritual shaman, he meant to imply that we are in a way responsible for everything that happens to us, whether if it’s just or not. That is part of what he is here to teach with his medicine, that there are things we cannot control but still we should try to individually heal our deep ancestral wounds that may be keeping us trapped in a negative cycle and eventually learn to take action to break free of that cycle. Of course simultaneously he is also human and he demonstrated his macho cultural understanding which unfortunately is what it is and may have been naturally reacting defensively to the accusatory tone of the journalist.. but still I do understand his point from a spiritual perspective.
@rainaqai68 well said!

Rape culture in medicine circles is much more common than you may think. Ive sat in a handful of circles and am somewhat connected to my local medicine community but im not the most familiar/popular person here at all. Even ive heard several stories of circles that get wrapped into a cult like experience where women are manipulated and taken advantage of. Men are often pushed away which thats a big red flag if your facilitator is turning down men from joining "because the medicine said that it wasnt the right time for you" meanwhile not turning away any women lol. One girl i know got pulled in and next thing she knew she was living alone somewhere else, isolated, and her "shaman" was controlling her diet constatnly, guilting and shaming her for questioning whats going on, etc. I stick to my circle and dont care to find a new one. It is held by both a woman and a man at the same time and I feel very safe and cared for in their presence during the ceremonies ive done.
It's not medicine. It's a drug people are using to get high. This is isn't curing cancer.
Great info, thanks for sharing.
The "medicine community" is just as deluded as the local megachurch population.
Every ceremony Ive ever seen or participated in was conducted with both genders looking out for each other. Go to church if ya wanna get raped😑. Solutions in the us aren’t.
I've done bufo 3 times, while at an Iboga treatment center in Baja California Mexico. There are places that do it for way less $175, more like $25-$50.
I am an addict, have mental health issues, and complex PTSD from all the trauma I've gone thru.
My experiences were all good, thankfully. I cried harder then I ever let myself normally do every time and I felt soooo much better after. Calmer, less depressed. But as a woman, I would not recommend letting a man you don't know administer bufo to you. The 3rd time I did it I hesitantly let one of the men there do my ceremony, but my hesitance came from my overall distrust of men. I had known him for almost a month and it went ok.
I cannot believe that supposed shaman that the journalist went to. First he definitely should not be taking a hit himself before administering it. 2nd, he sounded like a sexual predator in the integration session. Wtf.
Hi hi, I live in Tijuana. Could you recommend the center you went to? I went to someone here in the city but want to explore other options.
Wow you knew a guy for over a FULL MONTH and let him do your ceremony?! Sounds like u put an awfull lot of trust in strangers. I wouldn't ever take hallucinogens but i came across this vid and watched it just amazed at the insane things people do. Like the girl halfway the vid almost drowned if it weren't for those 2 'experts' dragging her back ashore. The girl was completely gone from this world mentally, no coherent body coordination. Can't believe someone would consider this stuff as healing. Your lucky if you don't go in a full blown psychosis after this shite.

Casa santa isabel? I went there too. Awesome experience!
@@Eflodurthey are intense in different ways. Iboga is probably the easier trip but the come down was brutal for me.
Do not ever stop taking antidepressants or antipsychotics or mood stabilizers, cold turkey...never ever. Always talk to your doctor about weening off before changing anything.
This is true. Can't speak for many but my docs have alway switched me off cold turkey never tapered. I had to tell them to do it. Mum's a nurse has seen patients on high doses of meds just cut off without a second thought of withdrawl
I stopped cold turkey..i had withdraws for a month to 2 months..just hots and cold symptems and fogginess and i never told my dr..im fine till this day
@michelledanko3059 I'm glad you're fine, but just because you're okay does not mean that other people will have the same experience. People's bodies and minds react differently to medication changes. Stopping cold turkey can lead to a roller coaster of emotional changes in some people, and has been the cause of suicide. Again, just because one person stopped cold turkey and says they're fine, does not mean the next person will have the same experience. Seek the advice of your prescriber first, always.
I always find it funny how people always involve "talk to your doctor" about weening off medication while literally no doc has any clue about getting off medication . Don't get me wrong i totally agree with not suddenly stopping meds (usually) but for most not taking your anti depressant for a couple of days is fine . We ain't talking about benzo's here like that would be a completely different story .
@chandler-yx4xp "Literally" every Medical Doctor and Psychiatrist in the United States has studied pharmacology extensively. Your opinion is baseless and reckless. Stopping antidepressants cold turkey is a dangerous thing to do. Talking to a doctor in regard to weening off is always the right move.
I really don't know how i found this video but there must be a reason. I've worked with Rodrigo several times. I will be forever grateful for his work. I've never had bliss ceremonies, only hard ones and he was completely dedicated to the process. I totally don't agree with what he said regarding the skirt, but don't forget that a shaman is not God, at the end of the day he is still a human. And he still has lessons to learn. If you ever have the chance to have this experience do it when you feel completely safe and trust your intuition. May we all have the courage to sive deep in this process of healing! 🙏

At 42 I now meditate, have acupuncture and go to yoga, I also go to CBT groups and DPT groups which all have helped greatly with my mental health struggles and addiction to alcohol.

Giving someone 100 mg on their first trip it’s absolutely crazy. I don’t doubt about those allegations on dr Gerry because he looked pretty unprofessional
I was given 100mg for my first and only bufo experience. it was terrifying, but also beautiful. i would say it was definitely a positive experience however i have had no desire to do it again. i got some minor re-activation the night of the experience but other than that i would say the entire thing faded away and was forgotten pretty quick
he looked pretty legit to me , he has the entire outfit.
I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxiety Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment psilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Micro dosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episode enough to start working on my mental health

Bruh she was on Bufo....."Um she's not being logical" well yeah. You're expecting someone to be logical in that state? Not very logical lol.
Her apologizing is a symptom of her ego. Why profusely apologies when you can change? Just saying the word sorry doesn't give you the excuse to act however.
It's one of the symptoms of trauma. Trauma psychotherapists help people work through this vicious cycle.

Holy crap-- what a scary situation you discovered and thank you for revealing it. Hearing this man compare getting raped to falling down is so scary. So a man face-raping a woman is the same as him falling down by himself? Or is it the same for a woman? If she falls down, it's the same thing as getting raped? However horrifying these attitudes and gaslighting seem, this is pretty much how being a woman in society always has been until fairly recently with "me too."
Women didn't and don't report this stuff because we're either told "you're imagining it" or blaming us for the trauma men seem to be okay with.
I fully agree that that is completely wrong. But I do wonder if what he is saying is that a woman gives consent while high, being that they are both high. Who is wrong at that point once you have entered a situation with a man that is tripping and agreed to join the trip and is it just sex or some sort of violent rape?

@@treasurechest2951thanks for the info
As a health professional its so incredibly frightening that these "shamans" have absolutely zero safety considerations in place for mental or physical health. THIS is exactly why we need some type of regulation for this work.
It is NOT work. It's just some people going to a foreign country to do drugs. People should be able to take responsibility for their own actions and not expect daddy government always be there for them imposing rules. If you can't take care of yourself, don't do drugs.
ok boo, you go enforce that
Yeah, tighten government control and make everything regulated, such a path to freedom
Like anything that works, feels good or stops symptoms here in America (home of the free) it is illegal other than some trials under medical therapy sessions. Not all but most negative effects are due to legality. In 1920 you could buy heroin and many other drugs from sears catalogs. No major epidemic then. Just adults free to make their own choices.
There is a medical professional in this documentary. Dr Gerry. He spent 12 years going to medical school / residencies becoming an obgyn. Are you a doctor too? As far as mental health goes I’m getting my masters and work as a therapist with our clients. When I am done with my masters and licensure I probably won’t do this work because of the liability. Which is how many medical / mental health professionals feel - which is even more kudos to Dr Gerry. I agree with you drop the shamanism and move to a clinical model
Vice can have monetized videos showing people using substances, but not PsychedSubstance for just referring to the use.
@luke5100 I just generally think lowly of Vice.

And thank you for bringing that to light for everyone that is listening to your video.

Also I was truly questioning the allowance to go out into the water and float. While in a state where you're really not capable of handling yourself. All that would take is one wrong move and people not watching at that time.
You’re watching a corporatized version of bufo. In traditional shamanic ceremonies, it’s not uncommon for the shaman to take the medicine to guide you on your journey.
It’s something you won’t understand until you experience it. That realm of our mind is reserved for those who want to go there, and there are many shaman (professionals) who can guide you.
@@TheSunshineGroup Exactly, I was about to reply that. In traditional shamanic ceremonies the common thing is for the shaman to take the medicine too to connect easier with you and guide you if needed.
I completely disagree with you. For thousands of years it has been common for shamans to also be under the influence at the same time. Why? So that they can be on the same wavelength and help guide the person better. Most Westerners do not understand these things because they're so used to the protocols of allopathic-medicine - which, unfortunately, almost always creates a sense of distance between the healer and the healed.
I love bufo. One of the most amazing medicine journeys I’ve ever been on

Ahh... The return of my favorite DNG. We will never forget your legacy Matt Shea aka Chocolate Boy.
The DNG tries DMT 😂
Give pin of shame a new meaning. That comment needs more likes.
Somone should break down this video and include Tate inside, especially when the DNG is in the stage of high🤔😂😂

My experience on DMT was life changing in a good/bad way i thought i died and got in a thought loop of it in a dark room with figures dancing around me before i came too i thought about everyone i cared about.. then went back to a very colorful place that was the end of tripping for me. About a year after that experience i did some shrooms not my first time and had a very bad anxiety attack and can hardly smoke weed anymore without having anxiety.. didn't help me with anything just made me relize that family is more important that getting high and gambling with you life
I think this is what a lot of people underestimate. It can help in some ways, but also harm. I indeed find psychedelics calming, but it sure can be traumatizing and make you guess if you really learned something you did not already know
Jesus is all We need-Not this evil trash
@@Kevin-lv5ll the ones looking for it are the very least indicate to do so.
Acid did the same thing. Never again.
Thats your fault letting your anxiety and being scared to do it making your trip horrible
Oh, I think the preparation rituals are very important.You can't be prepared enough to face something you're too weak to confront. It's a great idea to get people into a relaxed state first.

I had this experience 1 year ago the best experience of my life since i was born! I quit tabaco right away and the life i live now is just different.
He is highly entuned to the internet. The internet told him 40-45mg is the appropriate dose.
Highest dose should be 20mg
Maybe not for complete ego death ?

It's been 3 years since I tripped on DMT, can't find a plug anywhere in my area. Back then, We used one of those vaporizers with the big bags. The first time I didn't do enough and I just seen shapes and colours. But the second time I managed to get another hit in before I got the light headed. I remember floating above the country side flying and then all of a sudden I zoomed down into a deer and went right inside of it and I was the veins and the blood and flowing through this deers body. It was very strange lol
@@userconspiracynuthow can I reach out?
Is it Instagram?
The experience I had is unexplainable it's out of the world, it got my mind of anxiety and healing prosperities of DMTand other psychedelic products are underrated, you don't have to be skeptical about the use of psychedelic products like magic mushroom and more, you'll get clarity and an open mind
The hallucinations you get from DMT looks as real as what you perceive to be real, it's so beautiful and almost unbelievable because I didn't know it was humanly possible to experience something like that.
@@userconspiracynutThank you
I was staying with an indigenous comminity in the jungle in Ecuador and I participated in 2 Aiahuasca ceremonies (I didnt take any), and the shaman took the tea with the other person. The idea is that the shaman is helpping you with the journey. And honestly, although the shaman took the Aiahuasca as well, he was still pretty lucid.
The fact dr gerry does not film the experience so that if an allegation occurs he would have evidence is really worrying, my first thought was to show someone who thought you had hurt them, the reality of what happened, freeing them from the trauma they realized never happened, but no
ya but people dont want to be filmed lol
Well that was creepy at the end with the "shaman" especially when he's doing the drugs too. Glad he exposed that guy at least.
Great doc! The commodification of spirituality has clearly peaked - we now have a fast food equivalent of enlightenment being sold at a strip mall LOL. I think this is a good place to share a quote from the late religious scholar Huston Smith, “The goal of spiritual life is not altered states, but altered traits.”.

@ *PHYLCLANS*
as someone who has self-medicated for years, since i was a teenager, but also sought intensive PTSD/inpatient therapies as a young adult, who has plenty experience with MDMA, DMT, shrooms, and acid -- what makes me ponder the most about things like this, is just how truly vacant some of our hearts are. that we live in a stasis that doesn't harbor gratitude, self-care and self-love, that doesn't teach us throughout our lives the things that really matter to us as individuals, what heals us and makes us whole, what makes us the best version of ourselves to give to the world and to our loved ones. there is something all these people are looking for to be solved, a hole that needs filling, a lost heart that needs guidance, a voice that needs to feel heard. we're all just doing our best with the little we have, hoping to just survive another day through it all. only thing i can hope is that very few people are harmed, and that the practice gets safer for everyone.
I believe we are all trying fill a hole that can’t come from any of the things the world offers. We can let thy food be our medicine, but we should remember who created that food. Creation is a beautiful thing, but to disregard the Creator is the reason why we are all lost and seeking. We all have God sized holes in our hearts. We need a relationship with Him, and he wants that too.
its amazing what that one word 'shrooms' does to de-legitimize the value of a concept or comment in my head when I hear it. Like, if you added the letters "mu" in front of shrooms I picture you as an old enlightened wise wizard master on a mountaintop, and without the "mu" in front of 'shrooms', I picture a kid with tie dye in their 20's in their room.
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
@probityk
If you're referring to our lack of gratitude and love, seeking to fill the void, and achieving these things specifically through the use of those tools, I fully blame the drug war for whitewashing the value they posses. Hard to form a connection with the metaphysical and alter consciousness when your life is being threatened for wanting to explore the innate desire. Some folks do easily harbor gratitude and self love. Others need to seek it constantly. Sometimes i'm confused which folks are generating it because it flows natural or if their seeking it because it's hard for them to experience.
@@autumnruch33 I like that description. I also feel like you're referencing something so profoundly bigger than what should be phrased with words like "Him" and "he wants". The image of a human always threw me off. Or is it more of a metaphor, and is it accepted that, maybe, that's, like the only form our brains can comprehend? He created everything, yet has an opinion on me? Would he be angry if I don't utilize a capital letter when referencing his name? I mean, not even just the actual name, but also prepositions and any form of referencing? I personally feel like I do the opposite of deny the creator. I am forever searching for a more in depth explanation that the one I've been previously provided.
Without endorsing one side of the allegation or the other, and without judging anyone, if a person has CPR performed on them, it breaks many ribs and possibly the sternum. If you had CPR performed on you, there would be zero doubt about it after waking up and you’d immediately need to go to an emergency room.
I have zero doubt that she felt she experienced it that way… she was on an extreme hallucinatory, after all.
That makes it incredibly hard to sort out what people experienced on their trip and what actually happened, which is dangerous for everyone involved.
sounds overly dramatic
You’re right. If you have cpr performed on you properly, you’ll have broken ribs and so that particular claim would be easy to verify
i obviously cant state with 100% certainty that what the sjaman was saying is true but being on such a power psychedelic an ego death could in your mind probably translate to actual death also the part about wanting to get naked while tripping... very true
I’m pretty thankful that at 54yo I didn’t know what DMT or Bufo was, but I’m grateful that VICE has shined a spotlight on this.
But did u at least find out what shrooms n Lucy was? ;)
I don't know how you could go through your whole life without ever seeing that part of it 😏
Why are you thankful you didn’t know about something incredible like DMT?
@@MeatCatCheesyBlaster mostly because I don’t want to be around psychedelic drugs or people who think they should take it especially after hearing the horror stories of those who had very negative experiences or reactions. If you want to take it that’s your choice but the risks outweigh any “benefits”. No thanks.
@@NomadicNirvana420 I don’t know either but I try to stay away from stuff like that. I heard of “toad licking” but I never really had a need to know.
When I took bufo the shaman was very specific that anyone at the ceremony needed to tell him if they were on medication. He was adamant that people on SSRIs and other antidepressants should not take bufo
Would you say your experiences resulted in a net gain within your life?
If contrary, would you advocate for the further uses of these substances understanding there are those who are susceptible to negative reactions?
Does the common theme of this substance then rely on a dice roll and/or how one's self reacts to the experience?
Would this still not be leading others to walk down into a lava pit just to roast a marshmallow?
@@minecraftaddict43 my experience was a net positive, it was scary and confusing, but spiritually profound and enriching.
I don’t know if I’m an advocate for it, but I think it’s worth researching more, and then maybe people can have a more calculated approach to the risk vs rewards it can offer.
@@Zach-ls1if where do your ideas on what happens within spiritual realm stand on?
As in, if the spiritual realm is real, which it is, is there an objective sense of good and evil within?
Can something that is evil within the spiritual masquerade itself as good and deceive many? Vice versa, can something masquerade itself as evil and be objectively good?
Ying-yang would be excluded, due to conflicting definitions of good being in bad and bad being in good, since something within the spiritual can ONLY EITHER be good or bad and no other.
Would it then be necessary in being cautious approaching a spiritual realm in which we can only define via our earthly definitions? What are we doing within the spiritual realm when we are allowing other potentially good or bad spirits to inhibit our senses and occupy our bodies? Do they linger within and not pay rent? Do they devise wicked and cunning works against us as we sleep because we let them in? Is it safe wandering into a realm in which we know barely anything about?
Curiosity is a major driving factor that attracts many people to pursue these experiences; but at what cost do we pay for our experiences? Excluded, we can be the healthiest human and psychologically apt to undertake such an experience and relay it to others, but that is still defining the matter within the physical. What price are we paying each and every time that we wander into a spiritual realm that we know nothing of, excluding physical?
Do spiritual beings extort people being new to these encounters and mimic the things that they see here upon the earth, taking advantage of those who know no better and yet keeping those that are experienced within their control? Is there spiritual extortion taking place that we are unaware of because we do not have the capability to understand such spiritual matters? Is it even correct to begin to define an extraterrestrial-spiritual realm by earthly concepts?
So then again I must ask, where do your ideas of what happens within the spiritual realm, and where do your concepts of good and evil stand on?
The Lord Jesus Christ is the ultimate good within the spiritual realm. He is the only one who protects you within the spiritual and He wants you to accept Him as your Lord and Saviour today!
Repent of your dead works and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, believe that He is God and accept His gift of eternal salvation, and confess Him as your Lord and Saviour.
All others will spiritually use and abuse you, then throw you away into hell. Its a scary thing to wander into a realm that you have no idea about and not be protected. Seek Him sir, you've been deceived by all these drugs and shamans
@@minecraftaddict43 okay
His posturing at the 24 minute mark indicates guilt. Maybe I'm wrong. Highest love to all.
Wow, his response when he asked "Isn't it dangerous for people to just stop taking their medications before coming? The 'Shamans' response "Yeah well maybe if they were suicidal before they might become suicidal again?" Like there's way more risk than that, just stopping certain medications for some people will kill them...
I get that they're trying to help people but I think it should be someone with more overall knowledge than the guy in the beginning providing the ceremonies
With benzos, yes, there is a high risk of fatality or seizures, but NOT with the SSRIs they were mostly referring to in the segment.
SSRI’s are counteracting with bufo. No risk of any kind. It only increases one’s tolerance for bufo breakthroughs and a patient under SSRI’s will likely require higher dose.
This sounds like a rad vacation tbh. Shoutout to the interviewer for asking the hard questions about this! And for trying it out. I just wanna go to an island in general, you guys can keep the toad venom. For me I could get all these benefits just enjoying the environment these people got to be in. For me, the ocean is a perfect place to recharge and feel better
Who cares
I agree. Snorkeling, surfing, sailing or just a long beach walk is my cure. No toad smoking, thank you very much.
Shrooms are the safest recreational drug to take, it should be made available every where.
Psilocybin mushrooms saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone, Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues,
Bless your souls. After all, I found that the only thing that we need is nature and love.
Psilocybin freed me from a life of substance abuse,depression, victim mentality, emotional & mental prison.
Trying to get my serotonin/ dopamine levels corrected is my current struggle.
how about not taking drugs at all and just enjoying life ?
Wallmart shrooms... no, costco shrooms, by the pound!
Psychedelics will fix you for weeks. But being yourself and simply happy and learning from mistakes will fix you forever 😉✌🏻
The doctor had a good response for every allegation. 👏
It feels amazing to know about psychedelics all thanks to this online store I was able to get some mushrooms and they got some lsd gummies cannabis xtc and another stuffs

I have a really hard time imagining our mind releasing different chemicals that alter our interpretation of the world as us "going somewhere else." You are just experiencing something that's already there in this world, but in a way your body doesn't naturally.
edit: It's clear these sessions should be recorded for the clients. You can hallucinate anything, or he can use hallucinations to gaslight. So much unsafe practices happening here.
I always enjoy and appreciate the drug related Vice documentaries, and particularly like Matt Shea's work.
Rule one of any hulliconagenics is to not do it if you aren't in a good head space or never read up on it extensively or tried lesser doses...
I love my hulliconagenics
Psychedelic therapy is just one of those great leaps in the mental health space . It's wonderful and the fact that they serve recreational use and health as well. I can't deny tripping is fun every once in a while.
