Presley announced that he would be receiving a "ibogaine flood dose" in a video posted to his Instagram on March 26.
Based on Stanford Medicine, the roots of the African shrub iboga contain ibogaine, a naturally occurring hallucinogenic that has been utilized in therapeutic rituals for generations. However, its ability to treat drug addiction has made it more well-known lately.
Presley, a resident of Southern California, wrote in the post's caption that he is “praying it’s the last time I have to come back.”
As he got the assistance he required, his family shown their support for him.
“You are a warrior!” at that moment, Cindy made a comment. “Walked thru the fire to find yourself! So proud!”
In the meanwhile, Rande remarked, “I’m so proud of you and your courage. Facing what’s hard takes real strength and watching you find your way back to yourself is everything. I love you so much” Kaia then added that she was "so damn proud" of her brother.
In the past, Presley provided more in-depth details on his experience with mental health.
“I've had a lot of loss in many different forms recently,” he stated in an Instagram video from December 2025. "That is not an excuse, but it's the reason—or part of—why I am where I'm at now."
He continued by discussing the drugs he had been taking and mentioned that he didn't "have as much direction" regarding his dosages as he would have preferred.
“Every psychiatrist I've had—and I've had, like, 15—they're all like, ‘Here's 20 medications,’” he remembered. “‘Take this if you feel like this, take this as needed.' And I'm like, ‘No, don't give me that much leeway. I need some direction.’”
