I also had really terrible nausea with it. During the session it was fine, but then coming down afterwards I would be too queasy to do anything for at least a few hours. The NP I was seeing had some anti-nausea meds, but it didn't help much. It was getting progressively worse the more times I went, so I eventually stopped.

The positive mental effects were definitely as advertised though! I had crippling PTSD and it felt comparable to a paralyzed person suddenly standing up and walking away from their wheelchair.
