摘要

引言:本文报告了在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省的一个农村第一民族社区进行的死藤水辅助治疗问题物质使用和压力的初步观察研究的结果。方法:“与成瘾和压力一起工作”静修结合了为期四天的小组咨询和两次专家主持的死藤水仪式。本研究收集了12名参与者的治疗前和6个月的随访数据,包括与问题物质使用有关的几个心理和行为因素,以及评估参与者在撤退后6个月的个人经历的定性数据。结果:在评估希望、授权、正念和生活质量、意义和前景的量表上,有统计学意义(p < 0.05)的改善。自我报告的酒精、烟草和可卡因使用情况有所下降,但大麻和鸦片剂的使用情况没有下降;据报告,有问题的可卡因使用的减少在统计上是显著的。所有的研究参与者都报告了参加静修后积极而持久的变化。结论:这种形式的死藤水辅助治疗似乎与农村土著人口中与问题物质使用相关的几个因素的统计学显著改善有关。这些发现表明,参与者可能经历了积极的心理和行为变化,作为对这种治疗方法的反应,死藤水辅助治疗问题物质使用的更严格的研究是有必要的。

Ayahuasca-assisted therapy for addiction: results from a preliminary observational study in Canada.

Introduction: This paper reports results from a preliminary observational study of ayahuasca-assisted treatment for problematic substance use and stress delivered in a rural First Nations community in British Columbia, Canada.

Methods: The "Working with Addiction and Stress" retreats combined four days of group counselling with two expert-led ayahuasca ceremonies. This study collected pre-treatment and six months follow-up data from 12 participants on several psychological and behavioral factors related to problematic substance use, and qualitative data assessing the personal experiences of the participants six months after the retreat.

Findings: Statistically significant (p < 0.05) improvements were demonstrated for scales assessing hopefulness, empowerment, mindfulness, and quality of life meaning and outlook subscales. Self-reported alcohol, tobacco and cocaine use declined, although cannabis and opiate use did not; reported reductions in problematic cocaine use were statistically significant. All study participants reported positive and lasting changes from participating in the retreats.

Conclusions: This form of ayahuasca-assisted therapy appears to be associated with statistically significant improvements in several factors related to problematic substance use among a rural aboriginal population. These findings suggest participants may have experienced positive psychological and behavioral changes in response to this therapeutic approach, and that more rigorous research of ayahuasca-assisted therapy for problematic substance use is warranted.
