We will meet in the MENDOTA ROOM at Wil-Mar, which can fit up to 15 people so please RSVP if you plan to attend the meeting.
The Madison Psychedelic Society (MPS) Recovery Meeting is a trauma-informed peer support group, creating a compassionate and safe space for individuals recovering from addiction, trauma, and mental or behavioral health challenges. This meeting focuses on those who incorporate psychedelics into their recovery journey for therapeutic use. Our community welcomes individuals currently receiving formal treatment through clinics who may be supplementing their care with psychedelics, as well as those who are self-medicating without traditional treatment.
This meeting is strictly for peer support; it is not a substitute for medical advice, therapy, or professional treatment. Together, we explore the therapeutic potential of psychedelics, share experiences, and support each other in a non-judgmental, confidential environment while honoring that each person’s recovery journey is truly unique. While some may choose to self-medicate as part of their process, we encourage participants to consider seeking professional counseling or treatment to complement their journey whenever possible.
Core Values:
Community-Centered Belonging: Our recovery meeting is founded on the belief that every individual is worthy of love and a sense of belonging. We recognize that being part of a supportive community is not just beneficial but essential to the recovery journey.
Trauma-Informed Peer Support: Recognizing the profound impact of trauma, our meeting is designed to be a supportive and empathetic environment that respects each individual’s lived experiences. We foster a space where members can safely express themselves, focusing on understanding, empowerment, and avoiding retraumatization.
Integration Focus: Integration involves processing, understanding, and incorporating psychedelic experiences into one's recovery journey. The meeting emphasizes using psychedelics for therapeutic purposes, turning these experiences into meaningful, positive changes.
We aim to create an inclusive and confidential space where everyone’s age, race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, cultural background, neurodivergence, and abilities are welcome!
From veteran psychonauts to psychedelic noobs, we welcome you to share your experiences and actively listen to others to foster growth and fully benefit from our journeys in a supportive and communal space.
