DMT & Ayahuasca Recovery Support

  • You were searching for something sacred. Now you're searching for peace. We're here to help you come home to yourself with care, not judgment.

At TruPaths, we honor the deep intentions behind using powerful plant medicines like DMT and ayahuasca. These substances have been used in indigenous healing for centuries and can offer real emotional and spiritual insight. But in modern use, without proper guidance or integration, they can also leave people feeling unraveled, disconnected, or confused.

This page exists to provide gentle education and point you or your loved one toward safe, specialized support for psychedelic-related challenges. We are not a treatment provider but we connect you with trusted programs that understand how to help.

What Are DMT and Ayahuasca?

DMT is a powerful psychedelic compound that produces intense, short-lasting hallucinations and altered states of consciousness. Ayahuasca is a traditional Amazonian brew containing DMT and MAO inhibitors, used in ceremonial contexts for deep spiritual and psychological experiences lasting several hours. While often described as “transformational,” these substances can also lead to:

Spiritual confusion or crisis

Flashbacks or depersonalization

Emotional flooding without tools to process it

Difficulty returning to a grounded daily life

“I went looking for healing in the jungle. But when I came home, I couldn’t stop crying—and I didn’t know why.”
