Anthropology of Consciousness

This report concludes an undergraduate thesis interviewing people who had taken iboga or ibogaine in various contexts and extracting examples of subjective data that can help to sharpen descriptions of ibogaine's effects. For example, it highlights the appearance of others, common throughout participant descriptions, as a commonality with widespread reports of sleep paralysis, another hypnagogic/hypnopompic state at the threshold of REM sleep and waking awareness.
