A TOPGUN Goes to the Merge With TBI, PTS, and Ibogaine | Trey Warren

Send us Fan MailTrey "Raggot" Warren graduated from TOPGUN and flew in the F-14 Tomcat and F/A-18 Super Hornet as a Naval Flight Officer. He was also, three separate times, suicidal. In fighter terms he went to the merge with traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress, and the fight to get his life back. On No Way Out, Trey tells Brian "Ponch" Rivera how buried post-traumatic stress surfaced after his father's death, how stacked VA prescriptions left him feeling like a zombie, and how he found the way out: ayahuasca, psilocybin, and ibogaine with 5-MeO-DMT at Ambio, guided by fellow Naval Flight Officer Mark "Slider" Keller, the same door Kegan "Smurf" Gill walked through. A year and a half sober, Trey now teaches, meditates daily, and works as a peer support coach and legislative ambassador for VETS and Americans for Ibogaine. Ponch ties it to John Boyd's OODA loop, orientation, and the flow cycle of struggle, release, and recovery, and to the idea that the real work is the debrief. Trey's message: suicidality does not care what you did in the military, and there is a path through. Veterans Crisis Line, 24/7: dial 988 then press 1, or text 838255. Not medical advice. Ibogaine is Schedule I in the U.S. and is dangerous without cardiac screening and medical supervision.John R. Boyd's Conceptual Spiral was originally titled No Way Out. In his own words: “There is no way out unless we can eliminate the features just cited. Since we don’t know how to do this, we must continue the whirl of reorientation…” A promotional message for Ember Health.  Safe and effective IV ketamine care for individuals seeking relief from depression.
