Some people have used ayawaska or DMT to alleviate depression. Please post related general information and links here so that they can be easily found by others who need them.
While it has often been claimed that ayawaska can cure depression, SWIM believes that it was actually freebase DMT that cured him of depression, and perhaps also whatever residual effects of CFS/ME he may have been suffering from. He personally finds that smoking DMT every one or two weeks gives him a more positive and motivated attitude, and stops him slipping back into a negative mindset.
Here's his first post about how it helped him:

I would like to draw attention to this book specifically because it is in my opinion a must read. It can be bought cheaply second-hand online from shops such as Amazon. SWIM didn't do the exercises himself (he couldn't be bothered!) but just reading it to gain an understanding of the principles of cognitive behavioural therapy helped him a lot. Smoking DMT then seemed to elevate him from the rut he was in, so that he could use the principles he had learnt from this book to maintain his good humour.
This thread on 'medications for depression' is also relevent:

Everything I write is fictional roleplay. Obviously! End tribal genocide: www.survival-international.org Quick petitions for meaningful change: www.avaaz.org/en/
End prohibition: www.leap.cc www.tdpf.org.uk And "Feeling Good" by David D.Burns MD is a very useful book.
