Special episode on PAWS (Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome). Nick B. discusses his three ibogaine treatments to address his kratom addiction.  Nick on confronting the root of addiction: “Odds are your drug addiction comes from some sort of trauma… really try to focus on your traumas. It took me a long time to realize that.” On not doing it alone: “Ask for help. It sucks. It’s embarrassing… but I can guarantee you will feel so much better after you ask for help. So much better.” The ibogaine center Nick went to in Mexico: https://beondibogaine.com/ [https://beondibogaine.com/] Find Nick on IG: https://www.instagram.com/nickbecker64/ [https://www.instagram.com/nickbecker64/] Nick's ibogaine recording: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Qh0FViie0pQe43zPDRfxPdgYeAvb7D8n/view?usp=sharing [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Qh0FViie0pQe43zPDRfxPdgYeAvb7D8n/view?usp=sharing]    RESOURCE OF WEEK Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome and Opioids [https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/addiction/opioids-post-acute-withdrawal-syndrome] https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/addiction/opioids-post-acute-withdrawal-syndrome [https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/addiction/opioids-post-acute-withdrawal-syndrome] How Long Does PAWS last?
