If you encounter a difficult or challenging psychedelic experience during pregnancy, postpartum, or while caring for your child, it is essential to prioritize your safety and well-being. Here are some recommended steps and resources:
- In case of an emergency, contact a mental health professional or call a trusted crisis hotline for immediate support.
- The Fireside Project’s Psychedelic Peer Support Line offers free, confidential support from trained volunteers to help you process challenging experiences. Call or Text (623-473-7433) is available daily from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. PT
- If it’s not an emergency, consider reaching out to a MOTM educator, integration guide, or a psychedelic professional who specializes in working with mothers for guidance and ongoing care.
Integrating the experience with professional support can be an important step toward healing and personal growth. We are here to assist with your questions, connect you to trusted networks of care, and help you find the resources you need to feel supported.
Please remember that it’s okay to ask for help—these experiences can be complex, and support is available.
