Spiritual Warfare After Psychedelics: My Testimony
Aloha. I did LSD for the first time when I was fourteen, a freshman in high school.
I thought I had found GOD. Forty-plus years of psychedelics later, I am sitting here as a Disciple of Jesus with a newfound deep concern about spiritual warfare, plant medicine, and the doors I accidentally opened in my own house.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from GOD, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. (1 John 4:1, ESV)
Key Takeaways
I started LSD at 14 and thought I had found GOD.
Forty-two years of being spiritual, not religious, still left scales on my eyes.
Ibogaine is not one and done. The work is the rest of your life.
Your life is a prayer, 24-7. Not just a morning checkbox.
Talk to your pastor. Talk to your priest. Read the Bible. Jesus is the one who heals.

Why do I Now have a deep concern about psychedelics?
I am not the expert. I am just a messy woman who lived it.
I started with curiosity. Then curiosity turned into arrogance. I wanted secret information. I wanted to feel special. I wanted GOD on my terms.
I called myself a psychonaut, a sailor of the soul. Freshman year LSD felt like arrival. Then came mushrooms, MDMA, DMT, ibogaine, and more trips than I can count.
For 42 years I said I was spiritual, not religious. I thought I had the inside track. I had scales on my eyes.
I am not telling you what to do. I am inviting you to look at this with me.
Plant medicine can look helpful. It can also be extremely harmful. I have seen both outcomes in my own house.
What happened when I treated plant medicine like a ceremony?
I did the ceremonies. I did the sex magic. I did the chakra work. I invited spirit guides to speak, and they said what I wanted to hear.
None of those things ever gave me any lasting transformation.
You get a vision. You feel like you met GOD. Then Monday shows up, and the same wounds are still in the driver's seat.
I used to think I was making an altar to LOVE. Now I ask a harder question. Who is the altar for? Jesus? Or a false god with pretty language telling me how special I am?
Why is ibogaine not one and done?
Six years ago I relapsed. GOD saved my life. Ibogaine and community were tools GOD used in a desperate season.
I do not sell the medicine. I do not promote recreational psychedelics. This is not medical advice. I am not a doctor. I am not a priest.
If you already went, you already know it is not a magic wand. Many people treat ibogaine and other psychedelics like a weekend miracle. Then they go home and the old patterns wait by the door, waiting for the pink glow to wear off.
I have sat daily with people for 90 days after ibogaine. Ideally you give it a year. The work is still your life with GOD after you come home.
Pastor or priest first. Then Scripture. I will not be your shortcut around Jesus.
How do you know who is speaking through the medicine?
People tell me the spirit guide messages feel loving. They feel wise. They feel like GOD.
And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:14, ESV)
I cannot say for sure who those messages are coming from, and neither can you. We can claim they are from GOD. We can claim they are from our higher self. Test the warm feeling. Test the vision that flatters you.
Think about surgery. You go under. You are not in your body the same way. Psychedelics take you out of ordinary consciousness. Something can speak while you are opened up. Something can hitch a ride home.
I believe and I know for certain we are in a spiritual war. There are two sides. There is no middle. There is no la la la neutral territory.
What did the two blue guys teach me the hard way?
After ibogaine I met two blue guys in a vision. They showed me gunk on my brain like battery terminal corrosion. They asked if I wanted it cleaned. I said yes.
I invited them into my prayer grid. Archangel Michael. Gabriel. Jesus as one more guide. Mother Mary. And Bob and Chuck, because I named them.
I thought I had recruited help.
Years later I was in my own bed with a black demonic entity thing over me, and the name of Jesus was the only name that made it leave. I told that story in Part 1.
Now I look back at those two blue guys, and I believe they were demonic. I opened the door. I said come in. I gave permission.
That is how spiritual warfare actually works in a regular woman's life. You give a yes you did not understand you were giving.
Submit yourselves therefore to GOD. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7, ESV)
I did the opposite for a long time. I submitted to experiences. I resisted boredom. I called it growth.
Why does PRAY ALL DAY matter more than a morning checkbox?
Your life is a prayer, period. 24-7.
pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17, ESV)
The Bible talks about not being a drunkard. I was a deceived drunkard. I was not present. I was not guarding the temple, which is this body GOD gave me.
A morning quiet time is beautiful. If I pray at 7am and then forget GOD until bedtime, I have left the gate open. The Daily LOVE Practice is the morning engine. PRAY ALL DAY is the whole-day practice. Talk to the Father. Talk to Jesus. Talk to the Holy Spirit. Listen. Stay awake.
That is the mission under 11x LOVE. Help 1 million hearts connect to GOD all day, every day.
What comes home with you if you have kids in the house?
If we have children in the house, this reaches them.
You go to a ceremony. You open portals. You come home. What comes with you?
I have listened to people describe hitchhikers. Entities. Moods that were not theirs. A house that felt different. Kids who start having nightmares after mom or dad "did the work."
I am a mom. The devil wants to destroy families. You do not have to do this alone, and you do not have to keep the door propped open because a shaman with a good Instagram told you it was healing.
Read the stories. The ayahuasca memoirs. The shamans who later said they were talking to demons. The ex-psychic who thought she was protected because she prayed Jesus on the way in, then spent years talking to the other side. She thought she was safe. She was not.
How does this sit inside the 11x LOVE Method?
This is the psychedelic chapter of my from New Age to Jesus testimony. Part 1 was receiving Jesus. This part is one tentacle of that same story.
The 11x LOVE Method is GOD-centered life design. SELF, RELATIONSHIPS, RESOURCES, wrapped in PURPOSE. The Tripod for GOD. IkiGOD. A Daily LOVE Practice so you actually live it.
I reworked the 11x LOVE Method through truth and humility. Jesus stays at the center of the Daily LOVE Practice.
If you are confused, open the Bible. The Gospels first. Get a physical Bible if you can. Keep it by the bed. I am not a priest. Pastor or priest first.
Jesus is the one who heals us. He is in charge. If it is Jesus' will for us to heal, then we will.
Common Questions About Spiritual Warfare and Psychedelics
Q: Are psychedelics part of spiritual warfare?
A: Psychedelics can open spiritual doors. I believe that decades of plant medicine, including ibogaine, opened my life to demonic influence. Spiritual warfare is the unseen battle for your soul, mind, your family, and your worship. Test the spirits. Do not assume a loving voice is Jesus.
Q: Did ibogaine heal you?
A: GOD saved my life. Ibogaine was a tool in a desperate season, not a savior and not a recommendation. I do not promote the medicine. If you already went, the rest of your life still belongs under Jesus, with community, not a weekend.
Q: What should I do if I already used plant medicine?
A: Talk to your pastor. Talk to your priest. Read the Bible. Ask Jesus to close every door you opened. I am a spiritual life coach and a faith-based life coach, not a priest. Renounce what needs renouncing. Stay in fellowship. Do not keep checking in with the same spirits that spoke during the ceremony.
Q: Does this mean Jesus does not heal?
A: Jesus is the one who heals us. He is in charge. If it is Jesus' will for you to heal, you will. My concern is counterfeit healing that costs your soul and scares your kids.
Q: How do I PRAY ALL DAY after leaving this behind?
A: Treat your whole life as prayer, not a 12-minute morning slot. Use the Daily LOVE Practice to start the day with GOD, then keep talking to Him at the sink, in the car, and when the old craving for a vision shows up. Join a community that names Jesus.
