The severity of depression

How depression comes about is different for everyone. What is certain is that Western cultures have more to do with depression than other cultures.

Depression is a common problem and leaves traces in our society as a whole. According to the latest statistics from the World Health Organization, more than 300 million people worldwide suffer from it. As a result, 800,000 people aged 15-29 take their own lives each year.

Doctors prescribe different types of antidepressants, usually SSRIs with brand names such as Prozac, Lexapro and Zoloft. However, these types of medicines come with unpleasant side effects. Think of fatigue, dizziness, insomnia, erectile dysfunction and the feeling of not being alive. 

Psilocybin as the most powerful natural remedy for depression

Various studies have now been completed to demonstrate whether or not psilocybin therapy is suitable for treating depression. Successes have been achieved in various studies where the effectiveness is around 80% when looking at decreased depression 2 months after a single psilocybin session. The success of psilocybin therapy is closely related to the set and setting of the therapy. In other words, the circumstances surrounding and during the trip have a great influence on the result.

Why psilocybin works so well against depression

Psilocybin works well against depression through a number of mechanisms. The most important of these mechanisms is that psilocybin is converted to psilocin and this substance can then stimulate the 5HT receptors just like serotonin. Typically, people with depression lack stimulation of serotonin at the 5HT receptors. The following properties of psilocybin are used to combat depression.

1. Psilocybin will temporarily eliminate the serotonin deficiency through the conversion to psilocin, so that;
2. Depression temporarily gives way to contentment
3. Fear first becomes a little scarier and then can be put into perspective so that fear disappears
4. From a state of satisfaction and without fear one can honestly look at life and what is good and what could possibly be better
5. A state of brain hyperconnectivity is created during the trip, which means;
6. Things become clear that were not clear before
7. At a high dose, a connection can be made with the subconscious brain, which means;
8. Trauma or old pains can be processed so that they do not affect daily automatic behavior
9. Fears from the subconscious can be given a place
10. At the highest dose, ego loss or ego death can occur as a result of which;
11. A near death experience can take place that reduces fear of dying
12. A person can begin to feel connected to the entire universe
13. Experiencing a feeling of powerlessness when it feels good to have no influence (anti control).
14. When "landing" the trip be happy with the life through which;
15. The will to take good care of yourself.
16. Self-esteem development through understanding your (subconscious) self
17. Spiritual growth
18. The more openness of the personality leads to more social growth and less depression in the long term.
19. Psilocybin promotes brain repair by increasing BDNF.

More than just psilocybin therapy

Contrary to what many expect, we do more than guiding people during a psychedelic ceremony. We believe that a healthy body provides a healthy basis to be mentally healthy as well. We therefore do everything we can to address all facets of existence and that is why we also advise our customers on basic nutrition, exercise and supplements. The whole approach for body and mind ensures the best results in the short and long term. We usually use a schedule for most customers that looks like this:

1. Report, neurotransmitter test and intake
2. Advice on nutrition, exercise and supplements based on point 1
3. Watch a 2-3 week progression from point 2
4. An individual psychedelic ceremony (unless a group has additional utility or preference)
5. Debriefing of the truffle ceremony on the same day
6. After about 1-2 weeks another debriefing

Extras during psilocybin ceremony

Our psychedelic therapy through a truffle ceremony includes the following extras to make the experience even better:

• Individual guidance truffle ceremony
• Aromatherapy (during trip)
• Color therapy (during trip)
• Musical support

Possibilities of trip therapy

The biggest advantage of a trip therapy session is that through introspection (looking within yourself) we can send you light to change your self-image. Many addictions, fears, stress, depressions and other personal problems arise from a (negative) wrong self-image, from non-real thoughts or from subconscious stress, which arise from fears in the subconscious. If you allow yourself the best based on nutrition, thought and exercise, this will have a positive effect during and after the trip because these lifestyle changes are considered logical during the trip. Be good to your body and mind and they will be good to you. You are worth being the best version of yourself.
