Triptherapie against depression
In the case of this review, we, the client and I, listened together to the nature of the depression and took action against it by working on healthy nutrition and supplements before the trip. You can read more about how this worked together in combination with the psychedelic session in the form of a private truffle ceremony below.
Last Saturday, I experienced a beautiful psychedelic journey with Marcel. What was my path to this point? I'm prone to depression, and despite this sensitivity, I've been able to achieve a lot, many beautiful things that I couldn't enjoy because of depression. My last episode was based on a nagging feeling; something didn't feel quite right. I started focusing on finding meaning. But even that meaning couldn't comfort me as my love for life unconsciously drained away and the depression intensified. I've now moved beyond the worst of this episode, and therapy has helped alleviate the symptoms. What helped was the connection with my therapist, insight, and the newly learned coping strategies. But for me, it didn't fully touch the core of the problem: my love for life. While (psycho)therapy works on the level of reason, psychedelic therapy works on the level of your soul. With this insight, I started looking for something that could help me take a step further, and that's how I ended up with Marcel.
I've done a lot of research on psilocybin as a medication for treating depression. Marcel uses a holistic approach: healthy nutrition, the right supplements, and sufficient exercise help achieve the best results during the trip. This holistic approach worked well for me; eating healthier combined with the supplements gave me a more vital feeling even before the trip. This was never addressed during my psychotherapy, but it's truly effective.
The trip was intended to be a level 5 trip, but it ultimately became a level 3-4 trip. Every body reacts differently to psilocybin, and I learned that mine needs a slightly higher dose to reach level 5. However, this didn't detract from the trip; I gained some wonderful insights from the process. It truly is a journey; at first, it gradually became more difficult to formulate thoughts, then it became harder to find words, and finally, I connected with my subconscious. The genius of it is that your subconscious knows where your difficulties and wounds lie, what needs attention, and where healing needs to take place. My subconscious connected me with myself as a very young child, at a time when I wasn't yet burdened with thoughts, the sense of obligation, condemnation, and punishment. As a very young me, I was able to experience feelings of sadness, relief, joy, and wonder in their purest form, without words, without thoughts, without judgment. I couldn't really remember that little me anymore; it feels like lifetimes ago. Little me was happy and joyful, outside, in nature, on the beach, at the playground, playing with his friends and little sister. This little boy loved life, could also be sad, but could also be comforted. His feelings were adaptive and not stuck like in my depressions. This showed me a path I now understand emotionally: a bliss in ordinary life, more time outdoors, more play. A question I've been asking for the first time in my life since the trip: what does little me feel like doing? I don't know exactly yet, but I'm going to pay a lot of attention to this in the coming weeks!
The contact with Marcel before and after the trip was very pleasant. I also found Marcel to be a very knowledgeable trip coach. I felt safe during the trip; I was extremely vulnerable, and Marcel gently supported me. This unconditional positive approach was comforting; it gave me the space to truly turn inward. Marcel supported me when things got difficult during the trip and took good care of me. I'm glad we were able to make this journey together; thank you, Marcel!
