As someone who has suffered with mental illness and depression the majority of my adult life. I just tried KETAMINE for the first time, I felt as if I was in the center of the universe. It was an awesome experience
I hear this is supposed to be good for people who have mental health issues. I actually just started the research process of microdosing and all that. Im to the point where I want shock treatment.
I'm a long term Ketamine Infusion patient for central nervous system and nerve damage. It is a life saver for me. I highly recommend them. In Australia the protocol is a lot different. I have 7 day inpatient Ketamine Infusions and magnesium Infusions. Every 4 months 6 years. Had few PICC direct but too much scar tissue. Now I have Subcutaneous more gentle on liver. Before I was bed ridden unable to be vertical, seizures. Now I can drive part time and travel. I probably wouldn't be here without them.
I've had in-patient five-day IV ketamine infusions for peripheral neuropathy, and it's been so effective, much better at reducing the pain than the out-patient IV lidocaine infusions the previous seven years.
@@Tom-lh3cj yes I take 150mg Palexia SR x2, Norflex 100mg x2, Propranolol 40mg x4 not for high blood pressure but for slowing the nerve impulses, migraines, vertigo. I do not have normal nerve damage. I have 11 spinal levels damaged. L4 to S1 fusion and Laminectomy. I have a condition called Adhesive arachnoiditis which is scar tissue within a membrane of the spinal cord and brain. My nervous system and lymphatic system is damaged. It has many different pains and disturbances that need regular Ketamine Infusions and magnesium to cross the blood brain barrier. Without Ketamine, oral medication is useless and they cannot control it. In Australia our protocol is completely different to overseas. We Don't get a Infusion for a hour or couple hours. I am hooked up non stop for 7 days straight.
I take gabapentin, 300mg three times a day. That is my only prescription medication ... so far. I take vitamins and supplements including magnesium for muscle tension and bromelain, an enzyme from pineapple, for inflammation.
Oh my gosh Dr Kaveh, just listening to your calm voice is wonderful ,I'm sure there is so many pple out there that wishes they had a Dr like you , I am one of them . I live in FL, and I am on SS ,I have had anxiety ,depression for many years. I went through a divorce after thirty one years of marriage ,my youngest sister was support ,an then she died suddenly..My world fell apart , ten years later I'm wishing I could hear her voice one more time . I am currently on four medications for anxiety ,an depression, I really don't feel that anything works . How I wish I can have a bit of happiness and normalcy in my life .Thank you so much for all you do .God bless .
Hi Dr. Kaveh 😌 I won't go into details but I've been having a really difficult time in my life for the past few years and a moment ago I thought to myself, "what can I do to help my mood right now, and this moment?" And you popped up in my thoughts and so I figured I'd watch a few of your videos that I've saved in my "boost my depressed mood" UA-cam folder... and I've actually landed a live video! Awesome! In all seriousness, thank you for providing such insightful information but most importantly, thank you for being a truly compassionate, caring, and empathetic Dr and overall person. I know you make a difference and mini lives, in and out of the operating room. Here's to a great 2024 🎉!
Set and setting is critical for any psychedelic experience!!! I cannot stress this enough. MaKe sure you're with safe people in a safe place so you can be at ease.
I fell last year, broke myself & had emergency surgery. The anesthesiologist used ketamine and, allegedly, I hallucinated x 3 days. I say allegedly because the main character of my supposed hallucinations was the voice of my covert familial abuser screaming my name. I wondered if they had fallen too and by some freak twist of fate, also ended up in the hospital across the hall from my room. (Hey, crazier things have happened, esp where this person is concerned.) I inquired as to why she was there and what had happened but she would not give consent for her information. This tracks. Because of this covertly abusive, serial gaslighter, I am a grown adult who cannot trust my own thoughts or feelings. My nurse at the time, as well as the head nurse, days later, both swore she wasn't there, although my nurse seemed to acknowledge my suspicion by denying her presence with a "wink-wink, nudge-nudge" twinkle in his eye & tone of his voice. It was a Twilight Zone kind of experience. I know medical staff can't legally disclose info but can they lie to (and blatantly gaslight) one patient just to protect another patient's privacy? Surely not. This was too real, too vivid, & so specific. It was a mind bending experience that I never want to repeat. I'm still trying to piece my brain back together. There's so much more to it but to be safe, I'm adding "no ketamine" to my medical alert bracelet. No ketamine, no gaslighting & NO pathological narcissists.
Thank you for sharing your experience. You sound to me as though you have come to own your reality, worth and your boundaries, despite terrible trauma experiences with family. Good Bess you.
Doc do you do a "talking session" prior or during the infusion? I am struggling to find any information on how simply going in having 4-6 infusions and poof depression chronic is healed. How without addressing the core issues prior or during, does the brain know which needs help editing? Not exactly sure how to ask the question, hoping you understand what I'm getting at. So grateful for learning. ❤
I only weigh 120 pounds but I have the fastest metabolism in the world because of my ultrarapid metabolizer gene. There’s no one else like me. If there was just some way to turn off the CY1A2 gene then I’d would do it! Pain management is awe full after surgery because the meds wear off too quickly and then I just start gripping about wanting to just go home and deal with the pain there. It’s so damn frustrating! I got hit by a car and had compartment syndrome so my leg was almost amputated. I had a lot of surgeries but I have never done the harder drugs unless it was in a hospital.
I just recently had ankle surgery and they sent me home with a drip of local anesthesia that was fed directly into the lower portion of my sciatic nerve. My leg was fuzzy and numb for a few days. It's called an ON-Q pain pump. I wonder if something like that would give you more relief. I couldn't imagine not having it! I too am a fast metabolizer of drugs and have woken up mid surgery before.
I think it's awesome that you're able to bring so much relief to so many people. I know a few people who could really use this type of help. You must be really balanced to help people go through this like you do. The profound sadness she was feeling would rip me to shreds mentally I think.
I had the most healing, heartfelt experience. I rose above my body and I flew through a life review. I felt and smelled and touched my parents as a small child. I was born back into my mother's arms. It was an incredible feeling of a life of unconditional love 💕
Could you offer advice on how to begin a new ketamine conversation with your provider? Either psychiatric or other specialty? I've had the conversation with my provider in the past but they've been a bit dismisses and I respect and have a good relationship with all of my providers and would like toreassess and approach the conversation again because I do think it would be beneficial to my health and healing.
I wish I could get Ketamine therapy, I have severe PTSD, I woke up February 12, 2016 and found my 33 year old daughter passed away at my bedside. She was my first born and my only daughter. I have MS and she was my caregiver she was my heart and I miss her. I still have to sleep in the same room where she passed away, so I have trouble sleeping too. I'm sorry, but I don't think throwing Zoloft at a person and telling them they need to get over it is proper treatment, and besides, the Zoloft has never worked for me, and I'm on the highest dosage. February 12th isn't far off and I'm already experiencing the dread over that date.😭
I learned so much about ketamine! I have never had depression or anxiety, but I know of people that have, ketamine would be awesome for them! I donated to the anesthesiologist foundation again on new years, I’m still waiting on a date for my eye surgery, they are looking for an anesthesiologist! I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, I really wanted to be a anesthesiologist physician
I have been depressed since my father became ill, and was traumatized for two years while he slowly passed away. It’s been five years now. I have never taken any antidepressants just trying to work through the grief but I do feel stuck. I’m thinking one dose may help me get unstuck but watching this video now I’m feeling it may be even more emotionally painful What are your thoughts?
How can someone contact YOU to have sessions? Iam a stage 3 breast cancer patient and after 5 months chemo, which has left me with permanent neuropathy in hands and feet, DMX with 19 lymph nodes removed which caused permanent lymphodema leaving me in compression 24/7 for life, 6 weeks radiation which caused too much skin damage to have reconstruction...im beyond ANGRY to be so Trapped and buried alive in this painful, shameful body im stuck with now. 😢
😔 sorry you are going thru all of this. I hope you have someone helping you. I too am suffering from disease and lots of pain. They won’t give me pain meds. I’m 71 no quality of life. Hang in there Lisa .
How can ketamine infusions help with chronic back pain from degenerative spinal disease? I’ve been getting epidural steroid shots but they aren’t really helping plus I have fibromyalgia & neuropathy that I have been taking gabapentin, duloxetine, pregabalin & diclofenac sodium for several years but still live with chronic pain!! I’m so desperate to find something so I can get my life back!!
I’m in a very dark place and I went from living with anxiety and depression and my life was not ok but I wasn’t really suffering. Out of nowhere something happened at the beginning of this year and I am not the same person. Like a switch got flipped and everything just changed. I’m now thinking about my life being possibly near it’s conclusion. I suffer like you couldn’t even imagine and I can’t even articulate anymore. I’m set up to get ketamine from a clinic with an ER doctor which you seem to like but she does IM which you don’t seem to like and I’m already terrified. I couldn’t walk into your clinic because I am usually too afraid to go out except occasionally when i spontaneously seem to feel better which only happens from time to time. This doctor I am seeing seems to checks all the boxes you’ve said to look for in a doctor/clinic but I still am absolutely terrified because how do you really ever know for sure? I am all alone and have no support system. I’m so scared to go through this but I’m so bad right now I can’t imagine any other way out. I wish that I even knew a doctor like you but I don’t. Most of your videos are helpful but others make me even more scared. I feel like you’d know what to do to fix me even if the ketamine didn’t work as well as expected. I wish I could live in a world where one Ativan a day even helped me. I was on 4 1mg Xanax a day and when I suddenly got worse I, for the first time in my life, felt like I needed more and more. They now switched me to 10mg of diazepam 4x times a day (which is basically half the dose I was used to and I find diazepam to hit me much more subtly). So on top of everything else I’m now in my darkest place and dealing with the difficult physical and psychological issues that come with a massive reduction in medication and the kind of medication. I just feel like you could help me fix all of this and if you even saw my message and offered to help me (I know it would never happen), I couldn’t get to you even if you took care of everything. The clinic I’m going to is less than 2 miles away and the doctor is picking me up because I’m too scared to use an Uber on most days. I really wish that you would see this and want to talk to me but that won’t happen either. I just don’t want to suffer anymore and I believe you could definitely help me to survive. 🥺
Sirry so long, but its good stuff! It is helpful, but with some limits. I suggest you to look up this pub med article: "Ketamine for Bipolar Depression: Biochemical, Psychotherapeutic, and Psychedelic Approaches" It explains many benefits and limits to ketamine therapy for bipolar with reference to some interesting case studies. The conclusion at the bottom isn't too filled with much science jargon either so it's fairly easy to understand. The most notable takeaways for me were if you have addiction issues it's harder to find a doc who will want to do this treatment. Bipolar has many commonalities with Complex PTSD which ketamine has been shown to be a very effective treatment. And finally ketamine won't permanently "cure" bipolar brains, but treatments will need to be repeated to maintain that steady brain. Now my personal experience of my recent ketamine experience: ketamine's effect lasted just about 2 months before the um "moodiness" came back. It has been 3 months now, I'm short tempered, but feel more 'even'... life's really hard right now and I've not had any thoughts of how much easier it might be if I were just unalived. So I guess it's still helping.
I have never had fentanyl, xylazine or ketamine outside of the hospital but they have to give me tons of it for surgery but I always wake up right after surgery and I am ready to go home right away. I really want to see how much meds they had to give to me for my last surgery because I know that it was a lot. Propofol is so weak that I can no longer use it. I woke up too many times already on propofol and I didn’t want to wake up while my chest was getting cut to take out my gallbladder. They have given me so much meds at one time before where I had to sign a full code order. That’s when you know that you have a scary condition!
Well I was asked three times if I wanted full code before being placed on life support fr pneumonia, I finally told them I'm 33 do whatever it takes to save me ... Luckily I don't think it came to that those ten days
I could really, really, really use this. The amount of childhood trauma, my adult trauma, my rapes, and the loss of children. But i don't know if it's done in the UK or if it's private only.
I only want to see the room where they keep the Platonic solids, but it looks like I will have to come to your clinic to do it! Can't find any in my state.
I was extremely worried about this because I had a horrible trip on mushrooms a long time ago. It was absolutely nothing like that for me and even though I went to some dark difficult places, it was super powerful and really really really good. I never felt scared although I felt very vulnerable afterwards so it was important for me to have someone I trusted by my side afterwards. I have been doing the IM injections, I did the initial six and now I’m doing them every three weeks and my deep, depression and anxiety has started to lift for the first time in my life and I have tried everything. I feel like it’s a miracle. Of course I’m also doing the work with my therapist, which is so important. Also the place I go to starts you on a very low dose and they split it in half so they give you the first injection then come in 10 minutes later take your vital signs and if they are good, they give you the next part of the injection.from there, they could work with you to figure out the right dose. It has just worked well for me.
I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and My ins. does not cover it at all. I would not even know where to go for this. My doctor would love for me to do this as I have CRPS and horrible phantom pains from having an amputation of my right leg below the knee. i have severe reactions to a lot of meds. I am so afraid to do this as I am afraid to have a "bad Trip" @@Singlespeedjo
Hi Dr. Kaveh, I was wondering what is the difference between liquid anaesthesia and gas? How do they work? I was offered both options as I was told to get teeth out by orthodontist and, as I have needle fear, don’t want to be awake when they do it. Your videos are so great, thank you for making them! :)
The gas is probably laughing gas. You’re awake, but don’t really care. Like you could answer questions and hear the doctor, but it feels really distant. I did laughing gas for my wisdom tooth removal and I loved it. I always joke of laughing gas became available illicitly I may become and addict 😆 In all seriousness, the best way I can explain it that feeling coming out of a deep sleep? Like you hear what the question is, but your brain just isn’t computing very well. I remember I had to think about my toes and where they were on my body to be aware of them. It was a nice experience to be honest. They numb you like any other dental procedure so you don’t feel pain. Liquid anesthesia varies. You can be semi conscious with the same effects as the gas, it just takes a little longer to wear off so you can go home. I doubt they’ll fully sedate you in the traditional sense because it’s harder to protect your airway while they’re in your mouth, but same as the gas most likely. Sedated enough that you can protect your own airway, but whatever is going on around you is a non-issue in your brain. Like the lights are in but no one is home lol. Hope that helped a little?
Do you think people have medical PTSD this would be good for them or if they were raped would it be good? Every time I have had it, it was trauma-related in the hospital and that is what they gave me. The doctors stated I was extremely upset and my heart and BP would start to go crazy and would try to grab people. I was horrified because I couldn't speak and I felt I was being hurt I was forced to stay at the hospital and no one was helping me. That is why I am scared of taking Ketamine.
I had my first experience with Ketamine last week. I was in the ER needing a cyst to be drained and I was having a lot of anxiety over it. They gave me a single shot of ketamine through an IV and used numbing cream on the cyst. The nurse talked to me about my dog to get my mind in a better headspace and stayed by my side while the doctor took care of my cyst. It was definitely a weird feeling. I just remember staring at the ceiling and still being anxious, but feeling completely out of it. I didn’t feel a thing when they sliced open my cyst. I don’t know if that was from the topical lidocaine or the ketamine or both. I gave both the dr and the nurse a huge hug when it was over as I was coming back to reality from it. I was so grateful to them for making it a painless experience, but at the same time, I didn’t enjoy the weird way the ketamine made me feel. It was better than feeling pain, though. Then I was told not to drive or go to work for 24 hours.
I’m about to go into my 15th year of PHN. I’m 73 now and my body is so tired. I also have major anxiety disorder and PTSD. I have researched and looked into the ketamine infusions and had talked myself into giving it a try but my son is totally against it. He thinks it’s way too strong for me and is not on board. AND insurance covers nothing of course. Do you have any advice for me at this point. The shingles began on my backside and then proceeded between my legs and down one thigh. It’s been a horrible time and so many people don’t understand or actually believe the pain is as bad as it is. I’ve had 4 steroid injections but none worked. Thank you for reading this!
I was contacted by someone? Who said I was a candidate for Ketamine and wants to send it to me through the mail to be taken at home. Can you believe that?
Greetings, Doctor Kavehz! I understand that might be very subjective question, In terms of the extinction of fear, do you think think it's necessary for me to identify these thoughts before the session to heal from them?
I don't like it. It makes you immobile while you watch everything around you with pin pointed accuracy with the point being this world is a nightmare! It's aweful.
Hi Dr M , I have trigeminal neuralgia and severe pain and I have infusion but I don’t get to the dissociative effect. Should I have a dissociative experience to stop pain for good.?
I wonder if you've done a lot of drugs in your life if the effect is different? I've been free of drugs for a few years, but I know with some pain meds I've needed a larger dose in the past just because I've acclimated to having them in my system.
Do you remember or know if you're crying out or talking during a deep ketamine session? I've had 5 and although I did have convo's in my head I don't think they were audible. My cptsd history is not something I'd like known. Even attempting to speak and relay them completely locks my voice box no matter who I'm speaking to and while I'm able to rethink those memories actually verbalizing them would be very embarrassing. Would my Anesthesiologist have told me? He did remark that I was a very strong person but would he have said more and/or does the patient know or remember what they say?
Have you ever have someone who has ptsd horrible pain aniexty, I get scared now to even leave my home been here unless go see dr or go to the Er … 2x a year I go to daughters for thanksgiving and Christmas…I don’t see anyone husband when he’s home 2 grandkids the other 5 grandkids I don’t see don’t see daughter or son .. but it bugs my daughter with me be skinny healthier
Friend of mine on 4th treatment. Felt better after 3 but after the 4th feels like he’s spiraling downwards again. Paid $10000 for 6 full treatments including therapy etc. Any advice Dr. K pls? 😢
At 1:30 - Personally, this is why I'll probably never get ketamine (or psilocybin, etc., should that become a thing) in a medical context. Having a medical setting be "homey" is better than the alternative, but it's fundamentally a high-stress environment. Given what I know of myself and what we know of the importance of set & setting, this is the wrong way to do it.
l'll refer this mycologist who introduce Ketamine it helped me treat my depression and anxiety, check him out he also guide newbies on proper trips moments.
Having vestibular schwannoma (size med to large) and tegman defect surgery. After 16 years of unilateral facial numbness and cold, tongue and cheek biting, choking on spit, bubbly noise in head to finally get listened to. Well, only after adding frequently falling, jerking, slurring. Added vision issues (inexplicable black spot in vision) and now constant headache over eye. Still mystery. None seem to care about vision and headache. Lifetime being called hypochondriac. Oh well...we will see if I wake up still able to work. Job? Medical coder, interventional radiology & pain management specialty (started in anesthesia coding, 26 years ago) lol. Hobby? Wood carving and painting. Could Ketamine help my situation? PTSD? fear of upcoming pain? Joint replacements history inadequate pain relief due opioid laws? Also like an elephant, hard to put to sleep and stay down. Remember whole conversations far into and early out of anesthesia.
What if you have a medical condition that there is no treatment for, mine is of the skin, and it has left me severely depressed with extreme anxiety and great feelings of hopelessness to the point I’d rather be with my Creator than here. Does this type of treatment help something that is not going to ever go away??? Can someone, anyone, please offer me any advice.
had my first ketamine infusion 6 hrs ago. i dont feel sny different. the nurse did check on me but there was little conversation or discussing any of the process. during the infusion ikept trying to think happy thoughts but part of me was thinking my blood pressure might get to high or tryi g to make sure i was breathing regular, when i really didnt know if i was or not. I think i was just trying to control my thoughts to the point it was not successful. Is this possible?
Where is the psychiatrist to help direct the patient’s state of mind. Many doctors do not have that empathy with their patients are just interested making more money.
All the research I can find is that doctors are obviously leary with using any drug that could bought in the street fir an addicted person, but there are a handful of smaller studies that really ponit out the benefits of using ketamine in conjunction to other therapies for getting over those main hurdles of addiction. Granted every single person is incredibly unique in biochemistry and thought patterns.. But from what I have researched, when doctor lead it can be incredibly beneficial even fir addicts- but just be honest with yourself and rhe doctors. I've fallen into a research rabbit hole on ketamine the past 2 months after my first experience with it in the emergency room. For reference I'm a research nerd with a masters degree in Chinese medicine and acupuncture.
@@emilyhadley8168 I'm obviously very biased.. but yeah, you should totally do it!! It was the hardest thing I've done full of challenges but once the clinic time started it was all worth it! The time with your patients is so special and hearing their feedback on how their life is improving is the best... I felt like the Grinch in that scene when his heart grew 3 sizes larger everytime! So rewarding!
ive had ketamine after a few of my surgeries as a continuous drip for a few days....gives me the most horrible night terrors. i deal with more pain nowvto avoid this drug :(
4:02 ... First of all Incredible Vid!!!! A few of Our Associates have done or could currently be experimenting with intramuscular injectios of (ketamine/?/dextromethorphan((~atos??))/phencyclidine) and so on, and so forth ... So/Now, here is Our question; 'what are those "street drugs" going to end up doing to your Biology??? Our person has something close to a tiny "sebacious/metastic" growth??? , a tiny bump on the one (SINGLE) spot/vein that We finally chose to spike raw "Opioids"... /We bought some WONDERFUL "shite" but still... Now We have a 'lump' that will never go away.../ *That's like TRAUMA in the first place... Duh!*. There ARE NO easy answers... But in Our experience there are always Medicinal options for those who might be struggling. No promises for anyone though... 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤.
I had a Keta ine treatment against intractable pain prior to my spinal surgery . I experienced nothing except later , a Tramadol worked just a little bit . The big fix was a huge spinal surgery . After so much pain & still need a shoulder replacement surgery due to an automobile accident - I'm pretty immune to alot ! An old German warhorse . ** Sigh ***
Well I live in Maine and have suffered😢from PTSD & anxiety from a terrible childhood of sexual and neutral abuse, and I can te😢you up up here they would NEVER consider this natural type of therapy! Instead I'm stuck with a therapist and a psychiatrist who prescribes clonazepam, Gabapentin, antidepressants ((which I refuse to take) as I've repeatedly told my doctor I'm not depressed, I have severe anxiety! Aside from that, I spent a year trying every antidepressant imaginable and had horrible side effects! So my question is what can you suggest for me to find a program like thus? P.S. I have had experience with LSD and ketamine in my younger years and can honestly say it was the happiest care free emotional times I ever experienced. And this was during difficult times I mentioned above!
After an accident in Bali Indonesia in September 23 i spent 7 days in hospital. They fixed a trimalleolar ankle fracture there. They put me on Fentanyl and Ketamine iV. I watched the Basketball World Cup Final 2023 Germany vs. Serbia. Seeing Germany becoming Basketball World Champions for the first time ever while i was on Fentanyl and Ketamine was so overwhelming... 😂😂
I'm from Brazil. Last year I underwent THE longest ans strongest anxiety crisis in my life. I have just known from you about ketamin for this sort of treatment. I'm still taking Venlaflaxina and alprazolam and I have the feeling of being in the vórtice of a hurricane that might hit me up again at any moment, it's terrifying. I talked about this with my psychologist and psychiatrist and they say it's an expected feeling after such strong crisis. Is there this Ketamin treatment here? I want to know just in case it happens again.
Oi! Respondendo em português mesmo :) já existem, sim. É um tratamento caro e normalmente os planos de saúde não cobrem. Isso a menos que você recorra à via administrativa ou à via judicial, porque o uso de cetamina como antidepressivo aqui ainda é off-label pela Anvisa. Eu atualmente faço tratamento no hospital universitário da minha cidade. Desejo melhoras pra você!
I’ve seen a lot of videos of the cute monkeys and they give them Ketamine to control them…. Sadly some of them died from overdose… But I’m too afraid of having an adverse reaction like I did with the first dose of Prozac and I had horrible guelish nightmares the very 1st time… I think I’d like to investigate more about this… I’ll have it done in my Purple Crazy Bus 40’ luxury motorhome… it’s my comfort place w a king size bed… I have a very hard time leaving my house… I’m borderline agoraphobic and clinical settings and hospitals really causes me to be panic attack anxiety
Ijust started Ketamine infusions but it is not guided and i am looking up at a ceiling with typeof strobe light but no eye wear on and hubby holding my hand and when I sort of freak out he is telling me it will be ok. It is a wild ride and I hope that it works this way. because of the cost and having to charge it on my credit card. I talk alot and move a lot,wonder if that is normal?
As someone who has suffered with mental illness and depression the majority of my adult life. I just tried KETAMINE for the first time, I felt as if I was in the center of the universe. It was an awesome experience
I hear this is supposed to be good for people who have mental health issues. I actually just started the research process of microdosing and all that. Im to the point where I want shock treatment.
dr.perryshroom is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
YES, he is dr.perryshroom. There's a lot of potential in psychedelics
Never done KET but have done shrooms and DMT, lot's of patterns and hallucinations being displayed
hm. Can dr.perryshroom dispatch to me in Tx?
I'm a long term Ketamine Infusion patient for central nervous system and nerve damage. It is a life saver for me. I highly recommend them. In Australia the protocol is a lot different. I have 7 day inpatient Ketamine Infusions and magnesium Infusions. Every 4 months 6 years. Had few PICC direct but too much scar tissue. Now I have Subcutaneous more gentle on liver.
Before I was bed ridden unable to be vertical, seizures. Now I can drive part time and travel. I probably wouldn't be here without them.
I've had in-patient five-day IV ketamine infusions for peripheral neuropathy, and it's been so effective, much better at reducing the pain than the out-patient IV lidocaine infusions the previous seven years.
I found them hit and miss they give me a psychological rest. I am the opposite I found sub cut not to be so as effective
Can I ask if you take anything on a day to day basis
@@Tom-lh3cj yes I take 150mg Palexia SR x2, Norflex 100mg x2,
Propranolol 40mg x4 not for high blood pressure but for slowing the nerve impulses, migraines, vertigo.
I do not have normal nerve damage. I have 11 spinal levels damaged. L4 to S1 fusion and Laminectomy.
I have a condition called Adhesive arachnoiditis which is scar tissue within a membrane of the spinal cord and brain. My nervous system and lymphatic system is damaged. It has many different pains and disturbances that need regular Ketamine Infusions and magnesium to cross the blood brain barrier.
Without Ketamine, oral medication is useless and they cannot control it.
In Australia our protocol is completely different to overseas.
We Don't get a Infusion for a hour or couple hours. I am hooked up non stop for 7 days straight.
I take gabapentin, 300mg three times a day. That is my only prescription medication ... so far. I take vitamins and supplements including magnesium for muscle tension and bromelain, an enzyme from pineapple, for inflammation.
Oh my gosh Dr Kaveh, just listening to your calm voice is wonderful ,I'm sure there is so many pple out there that wishes they had a Dr like you , I am one of them . I live in FL, and I am on SS ,I have had anxiety ,depression for many years. I went through a divorce after thirty one years of marriage ,my youngest sister was support ,an then she died suddenly..My world fell apart , ten years later I'm wishing I could hear her voice one more time . I am currently on four medications for anxiety ,an depression, I really don't feel that anything works . How I wish I can have a bit of happiness and normalcy in my life .Thank you so much for all you do .God bless .
I'll pray for you.
Hi Dr. Kaveh 😌 I won't go into details but I've been having a really difficult time in my life for the past few years and a moment ago I thought to myself, "what can I do to help my mood right now, and this moment?" And you popped up in my thoughts and so I figured I'd watch a few of your videos that I've saved in my "boost my depressed mood" UA-cam folder... and I've actually landed a live video! Awesome!
In all seriousness, thank you for providing such insightful information but most importantly, thank you for being a truly compassionate, caring, and empathetic Dr and overall person. I know you make a difference and mini lives, in and out of the operating room.
Here's to a great 2024 🎉!
Thankyou dr this was very informative information 😊
Set and setting is critical for any psychedelic experience!!! I cannot stress this enough. MaKe sure you're with safe people in a safe place so you can be at ease.
SET & SETTING. Having a ‘sound headspace entry’ & a ‘sound headspace re-entry’ serve as as valuable as the medication
I fell last year, broke myself & had emergency surgery. The anesthesiologist used ketamine and, allegedly, I hallucinated x 3 days. I say allegedly because the main character of my supposed hallucinations was the voice of my covert familial abuser screaming my name. I wondered if they had fallen too and by some freak twist of fate, also ended up in the hospital across the hall from my room. (Hey, crazier things have happened, esp where this person is concerned.) I inquired as to why she was there and what had happened but she would not give consent for her information. This tracks. Because of this covertly abusive, serial gaslighter, I am a grown adult who cannot trust my own thoughts or feelings. My nurse at the time, as well as the head nurse, days later, both swore she wasn't there, although my nurse seemed to acknowledge my suspicion by denying her presence with a "wink-wink, nudge-nudge" twinkle in his eye & tone of his voice. It was a Twilight Zone kind of experience. I know medical staff can't legally disclose info but can they lie to (and blatantly gaslight) one patient just to protect another patient's privacy? Surely not. This was too real, too vivid, & so specific. It was a mind bending experience that I never want to repeat. I'm still trying to piece my brain back together. There's so much more to it but to be safe, I'm adding "no ketamine" to my medical alert bracelet. No ketamine, no gaslighting & NO pathological narcissists.
Thank you for sharing your experience. You sound to me as though you have come to own your reality, worth and your boundaries, despite terrible trauma experiences with family. Good Bess you.
@@LisaKelly-k8s Thank you. It's a process. 1 day at a time. Bless you as well.
Doc do you do a "talking session" prior or during the infusion? I am struggling to find any information on how simply going in having 4-6 infusions and poof depression chronic is healed. How without addressing the core issues prior or during, does the brain know which needs help editing? Not exactly sure how to ask the question, hoping you understand what I'm getting at. So grateful for learning. ❤

I only weigh 120 pounds but I have the fastest metabolism in the world because of my ultrarapid metabolizer gene. There’s no one else like me. If there was just some way to turn off the CY1A2 gene then I’d would do it! Pain management is awe full after surgery because the meds wear off too quickly and then I just start gripping about wanting to just go home and deal with the pain there. It’s so damn frustrating! I got hit by a car and had compartment syndrome so my leg was almost amputated. I had a lot of surgeries but I have never done the harder drugs unless it was in a hospital.
Bummer
I just recently had ankle surgery and they sent me home with a drip of local anesthesia that was fed directly into the lower portion of my sciatic nerve. My leg was fuzzy and numb for a few days. It's called an ON-Q pain pump. I wonder if something like that would give you more relief. I couldn't imagine not having it! I too am a fast metabolizer of drugs and have woken up mid surgery before.
I think it's awesome that you're able to bring so much relief to so many people. I know a few people who could really use this type of help. You must be really balanced to help people go through this like you do. The profound sadness she was feeling would rip me to shreds mentally I think.
Really enjoyed this video on ketamine Doc ! ❤ tis a pity you are not my Doctor 😂 I definitely would come to you for my health issues any day !
I don't want to remember my past.
I had the most healing, heartfelt experience.
I rose above my body and I flew through a life review. I felt and smelled and touched my parents as a small child. I was born back into my mother's arms.
It was an incredible feeling of a life of unconditional love 💕
Could you offer advice on how to begin a new ketamine conversation with your provider? Either psychiatric or other specialty? I've had the conversation with my provider in the past but they've been a bit dismisses and I respect and have a good relationship with all of my providers and would like toreassess and approach the conversation again because I do think it would be beneficial to my health and healing.
I need a o do more research about ketamine. I keep hearing this word but don’t know what it is. Thanks for sharing. You have a very soothing voice.
I wish I could get Ketamine therapy, I have severe PTSD, I woke up February 12, 2016 and found my 33 year old daughter passed away at my bedside. She was my first born and my only daughter. I have MS and she was my caregiver she was my heart and I miss her. I still have to sleep in the same room where she passed away, so I have trouble sleeping too. I'm sorry, but I don't think throwing Zoloft at a person and telling them they need to get over it is proper treatment, and besides, the Zoloft has never worked for me, and I'm on the highest dosage. February 12th isn't far off and I'm already experiencing the dread over that date.😭
I will check them online. I really needed this ☺️
I learned so much about ketamine! I have never had depression or anxiety, but I know of people that have, ketamine would be awesome for them! I donated to the anesthesiologist foundation again on new years, I’m still waiting on a date for my eye surgery, they are looking for an anesthesiologist! I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, I really wanted to be a anesthesiologist physician
I have been depressed since my father became ill, and was traumatized for two years while he slowly passed away. It’s been five years now. I have never taken any antidepressants just trying to work through the grief but I do feel stuck.
I’m thinking one dose may help me get unstuck but watching this video now I’m feeling it may be even more emotionally painful
What are your thoughts?
@hopebeel8765 thanks for your feedback
How can someone contact YOU to have sessions? Iam a stage 3 breast cancer patient and after 5 months chemo, which has left me with permanent neuropathy in hands and feet, DMX with 19 lymph nodes removed which caused permanent lymphodema leaving me in compression 24/7 for life, 6 weeks radiation which caused too much skin damage to have reconstruction...im beyond ANGRY to be so Trapped and buried alive in this painful, shameful body im stuck with now. 😢
😔 sorry you are going thru all of this. I hope you have someone helping you. I too am suffering from disease and lots of pain. They won’t give me pain meds. I’m 71 no quality of life. Hang in there Lisa .
How can ketamine infusions help with chronic back pain from degenerative spinal disease? I’ve been getting epidural steroid shots but they aren’t really helping plus I have fibromyalgia & neuropathy that I have been taking gabapentin, duloxetine, pregabalin & diclofenac sodium for several years but still live with chronic pain!! I’m so desperate to find something so I can get my life back!!
I’m in a very dark place and I went from living with anxiety and depression and my life was not ok but I wasn’t really suffering. Out of nowhere something happened at the beginning of this year and I am not the same person. Like a switch got flipped and everything just changed. I’m now thinking about my life being possibly near it’s conclusion. I suffer like you couldn’t even imagine and I can’t even articulate anymore. I’m set up to get ketamine from a clinic with an ER doctor which you seem to like but she does IM which you don’t seem to like and I’m already terrified. I couldn’t walk into your clinic because I am usually too afraid to go out except occasionally when i spontaneously seem to feel better which only happens from time to time. This doctor I am seeing seems to checks all the boxes you’ve said to look for in a doctor/clinic but I still am absolutely terrified because how do you really ever know for sure? I am all alone and have no support system. I’m so scared to go through this but I’m so bad right now I can’t imagine any other way out. I wish that I even knew a doctor like you but I don’t. Most of your videos are helpful but others make me even more scared. I feel like you’d know what to do to fix me even if the ketamine didn’t work as well as expected. I wish I could live in a world where one Ativan a day even helped me. I was on 4 1mg Xanax a day and when I suddenly got worse I, for the first time in my life, felt like I needed more and more. They now switched me to 10mg of diazepam 4x times a day (which is basically half the dose I was used to and I find diazepam to hit me much more subtly). So on top of everything else I’m now in my darkest place and dealing with the difficult physical and psychological issues that come with a massive reduction in medication and the kind of medication. I just feel like you could help me fix all of this and if you even saw my message and offered to help me (I know it would never happen), I couldn’t get to you even if you took care of everything. The clinic I’m going to is less than 2 miles away and the doctor is picking me up because I’m too scared to use an Uber on most days. I really wish that you would see this and want to talk to me but that won’t happen either. I just don’t want to suffer anymore and I believe you could definitely help me to survive. 🥺
Are there any contraindications for ketamine therapy such as meds that one takes or health conditions that may make the experience a negative one?
These guidelines have a section on contraindications for use of ketamine. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6023575/
But the guy from Friends show died from Ketamine
No he died from drowning due to the effects of Ketamine.
@@Bonesph oh yeh that’s right my bad
That’s why you use IV therapy!
I have had two ketamine treatments, and I can't talk or had an emotional experience like that.
Is ketamin therapy safe for someone with a mental illness such as bipolar? It's probably been covered in previous videos so I will have to view those🙂
Sirry so long, but its good stuff! It is helpful, but with some limits. I suggest you to look up this pub med article: "Ketamine for Bipolar Depression: Biochemical, Psychotherapeutic, and Psychedelic Approaches" It explains many benefits and limits to ketamine therapy for bipolar with reference to some interesting case studies. The conclusion at the bottom isn't too filled with much science jargon either so it's fairly easy to understand. The most notable takeaways for me were if you have addiction issues it's harder to find a doc who will want to do this treatment. Bipolar has many commonalities with Complex PTSD which ketamine has been shown to be a very effective treatment. And finally ketamine won't permanently "cure" bipolar brains, but treatments will need to be repeated to maintain that steady brain. Now my personal experience of my recent ketamine experience: ketamine's effect lasted just about 2 months before the um "moodiness" came back. It has been 3 months now, I'm short tempered, but feel more 'even'... life's really hard right now and I've not had any thoughts of how much easier it might be if I were just unalived. So I guess it's still helping.
We have a family member who is getting online ketamine. We are very concerned that they are doing this unsupervised by a doctor.
Happy New Year Dr.K 🎉🎊🎆 We want you to react to medical scenes from tv shows and movies this year.
I have never had fentanyl, xylazine or ketamine outside of the hospital but they have to give me tons of it for surgery but I always wake up right after surgery and I am ready to go home right away. I really want to see how much meds they had to give to me for my last surgery because I know that it was a lot. Propofol is so weak that I can no longer use it. I woke up too many times already on propofol and I didn’t want to wake up while my chest was getting cut to take out my gallbladder. They have given me so much meds at one time before where I had to sign a full code order. That’s when you know that you have a scary condition!
Well I was asked three times if I wanted full code before being placed on life support fr pneumonia, I finally told them I'm 33 do whatever it takes to save me ... Luckily I don't think it came to that those ten days
They did laproscopy to remove my gall bladdder. Then due to a stone blocking central bile duct they put me in twilight and went down my throat.
I could really, really, really use this. The amount of childhood trauma, my adult trauma, my rapes, and the loss of children. But i don't know if it's done in the UK or if it's private only.
I only want to see the room where they keep the Platonic solids, but it looks like I will have to come to your clinic to do it! Can't find any in my state.
@hopebeel8765thanks for the information. I really needed this
@hopebeel8765 Do you have someone to administer them? What an interesting idea.
I’m wondering how long a session takes?
Does anyone ever "freaked" out while getting ketamine? Like they are having a bad trip? And what do you do after removing the IV.
I was extremely worried about this because I had a horrible trip on mushrooms a long time ago. It was absolutely nothing like that for me and even though I went to some dark difficult places, it was super powerful and really really really good. I never felt scared although I felt very vulnerable afterwards so it was important for me to have someone I trusted by my side afterwards. I have been doing the IM injections, I did the initial six and now I’m doing them every three weeks and my deep, depression and anxiety has started to lift for the first time in my life and I have tried everything. I feel like it’s a miracle. Of course I’m also doing the work with my therapist, which is so important. Also the place I go to starts you on a very low dose and they split it in half so they give you the first injection then come in 10 minutes later take your vital signs and if they are good, they give you the next part of the injection.from there, they could work with you to figure out the right dose. It has just worked well for me.
I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and My ins. does not cover it at all. I would not even know where to go for this. My doctor would love for me to do this as I have CRPS and horrible phantom pains from having an amputation of my right leg below the knee. i have severe reactions to a lot of meds. I am so afraid to do this as I am afraid to have a "bad Trip" @@Singlespeedjo
Hi Dr. Kaveh, I was wondering what is the difference between liquid anaesthesia and gas? How do they work? I was offered both options as I was told to get teeth out by orthodontist and, as I have needle fear, don’t want to be awake when they do it. Your videos are so great, thank you for making them! :)
The gas is probably laughing gas. You’re awake, but don’t really care. Like you could answer questions and hear the doctor, but it feels really distant. I did laughing gas for my wisdom tooth removal and I loved it. I always joke of laughing gas became available illicitly I may become and addict 😆 In all seriousness, the best way I can explain it that feeling coming out of a deep sleep? Like you hear what the question is, but your brain just isn’t computing very well. I remember I had to think about my toes and where they were on my body to be aware of them. It was a nice experience to be honest. They numb you like any other dental procedure so you don’t feel pain. Liquid anesthesia varies. You can be semi conscious with the same effects as the gas, it just takes a little longer to wear off so you can go home. I doubt they’ll fully sedate you in the traditional sense because it’s harder to protect your airway while they’re in your mouth, but same as the gas most likely. Sedated enough that you can protect your own airway, but whatever is going on around you is a non-issue in your brain. Like the lights are in but no one is home lol. Hope that helped a little?
@@siriushp0904 wow thanks for taking the time to write that!
Do you think people have medical PTSD this would be good for them or if they were raped would it be good? Every time I have had it, it was trauma-related in the hospital and that is what they gave me. The doctors stated I was extremely upset and my heart and BP would start to go crazy and would try to grab people. I was horrified because I couldn't speak and I felt I was being hurt I was forced to stay at the hospital and no one was helping me. That is why I am scared of taking Ketamine.
I had my first experience with Ketamine last week. I was in the ER needing a cyst to be drained and I was having a lot of anxiety over it. They gave me a single shot of ketamine through an IV and used numbing cream on the cyst. The nurse talked to me about my dog to get my mind in a better headspace and stayed by my side while the doctor took care of my cyst. It was definitely a weird feeling. I just remember staring at the ceiling and still being anxious, but feeling completely out of it. I didn’t feel a thing when they sliced open my cyst. I don’t know if that was from the topical lidocaine or the ketamine or both. I gave both the dr and the nurse a huge hug when it was over as I was coming back to reality from it. I was so grateful to them for making it a painless experience, but at the same time, I didn’t enjoy the weird way the ketamine made me feel. It was better than feeling pain, though. Then I was told not to drive or go to work for 24 hours.
I’m about to go into my 15th year of PHN. I’m 73 now and my body is so tired. I also have major anxiety disorder and PTSD. I have researched and looked into the ketamine infusions and had talked myself into giving it a try but my son is totally against it. He thinks it’s way too strong for me and is not on board. AND insurance covers nothing of course. Do you have any advice for me at this point. The shingles began on my backside and then proceeded between my legs and down one thigh. It’s been a horrible time and so many people don’t understand or actually believe the pain is as bad as it is. I’ve had 4 steroid injections but none worked. Thank you for reading this!
I was contacted by someone? Who said I was a candidate for Ketamine and wants to send it to me through the mail to be taken at home. Can you believe that?
No. If it is too good to believe it probably is.
Never trust these foreign stuff.
I had ketamine during a surgical procedure and don't remember anything about it. I woke up sick to my stomach and then slept for the next three days.
Δεν εχει μεταφραση,και δεν καταλαβενω.! Εχω σοβαρο προβλημα με χρονια ανθεκτικη υποτροπιαζουσα καταθλιψη, στο γιο μου. Χρειαζομαστε θοηθεια !
Thank you so much for such great interesting educational video.
If you have PTSD, anxiety, ot depression, how do you enter with the "right mindset".
Is it like having an acid trip? A very long time ago in my teens, I was given acid to try and never did again. It scared me. 😱
That needle look like it would be used for a pain block getting into the joint. I use a 1" needle for toradol IM deltoid injections.
This whole thing scares the shit out of me. Like psychedelics-no thank you.
Greetings, Doctor Kavehz! I understand that might be very subjective question, In terms of the extinction of fear, do you think think it's necessary for me to identify these thoughts before the session to heal from them?
I don't like it. It makes you immobile while you watch everything around you with pin pointed accuracy with the point being this world is a nightmare! It's aweful.
Hi Dr M , I have trigeminal neuralgia and severe pain and I have infusion but I don’t get to the dissociative effect. Should I have a dissociative experience to stop pain for good.?
I wonder if you've done a lot of drugs in your life if the effect is different? I've been free of drugs for a few years, but I know with some pain meds I've needed a larger dose in the past just because I've acclimated to having them in my system.
is this an abreaction at 7:50 as can occur in 'flooding'?
I'm thinking of trying it out, I'd like to stop taking other drugs like duoloxitine
Thank you for sharing this.
Ketamine fanatics are what is happening now. Late night infomercials starring psychedelic t shirt clad hippies are next! Lmao😂
Do you remember or know if you're crying out or talking during a deep ketamine session? I've had 5 and although I did have convo's in my head I don't think they were audible. My cptsd history is not something I'd like known. Even attempting to speak and relay them completely locks my voice box no matter who I'm speaking to and while I'm able to rethink those memories actually verbalizing them would be very embarrassing. Would my Anesthesiologist have told me? He did remark that I was a very strong person but would he have said more and/or does the patient know or remember what they say?
How do you get this? Doctor's prescription? Does insurance cover 🤔 How much does it cost 🤔
Darknet marketplaces, 10 USD/g or less.
I'm happy that people find relief from this, but I would go in with an anxiety attack. I don't think that would be good.
Its super expensive isn't it?
Doc im available for a Lily dose anytime.
thank you!
Healing can be challenging. Even frightening. ❤
Have you ever have someone who has ptsd horrible pain aniexty, I get scared now to even leave my home been here unless go see dr or go to the Er … 2x a year I go to daughters for thanksgiving and Christmas…I don’t see anyone husband when he’s home 2 grandkids the other 5 grandkids I don’t see don’t see daughter or son .. but it bugs my daughter with me be skinny healthier
Friend of mine on 4th treatment. Felt better after 3 but after the 4th feels like he’s spiraling downwards again. Paid $10000 for 6 full treatments including therapy etc. Any advice Dr. K pls? 😢
At 1:30 - Personally, this is why I'll probably never get ketamine (or psilocybin, etc., should that become a thing) in a medical context. Having a medical setting be "homey" is better than the alternative, but it's fundamentally a high-stress environment. Given what I know of myself and what we know of the importance of set & setting, this is the wrong way to do it.
Mushrooms in the right setting❤ Just takes longer. 4hrs or so❤
Sorry to hear you endorse this.
Is ketamine good for neuropathy in the feet the numbness in the pain? And in the back?
I have a question i had aspiration pneumonia after general anesthesia years ago am i at risk if i have surgery again ?
I wish I could be your patient 😢 I'm in Israel and although we do have ketamine treatment it's not nearly as available as it is in the US
l'll refer this mycologist who introduce Ketamine it helped me treat my depression and anxiety, check him out he also guide newbies on proper trips moments.

Having vestibular schwannoma (size med to large) and tegman defect surgery. After 16 years of unilateral facial numbness and cold, tongue and cheek biting, choking on spit, bubbly noise in head to finally get listened to. Well, only after adding frequently falling, jerking, slurring. Added vision issues (inexplicable black spot in vision) and now constant headache over eye. Still mystery. None seem to care about vision and headache. Lifetime being called hypochondriac. Oh well...we will see if I wake up still able to work. Job? Medical coder, interventional radiology & pain management specialty (started in anesthesia coding, 26 years ago) lol. Hobby? Wood carving and painting. Could Ketamine help my situation? PTSD? fear of upcoming pain? Joint replacements history inadequate pain relief due opioid laws? Also like an elephant, hard to put to sleep and stay down. Remember whole conversations far into and early out of anesthesia.
What if you have a medical condition that there is no treatment for, mine is of the skin, and it has left me severely depressed with extreme anxiety and great feelings of hopelessness to the point I’d rather be with my Creator than here. Does this type of treatment help something that is not going to ever go away??? Can someone, anyone, please offer me any advice.
My experience on ketamine has been a great benefit while breaking through one ought to take the right dosage, below usually where l get mine

Hey, I've been binging your videos, and I have surgery soon and have questions. Is there an email I can reach you at?
had my first ketamine infusion 6 hrs ago. i dont feel sny different. the nurse did check on me but there was little conversation or discussing any of the process. during the infusion ikept trying to think happy thoughts but part of me was thinking my blood pressure might get to high or tryi g to make sure i was breathing regular, when i really didnt know if i was or not. I think i was just trying to control my thoughts to the point it was not successful. Is this possible?
Do you always trip in ketamine? I wouldn’t want that
Hi from the coast of North Carolina
Where is the psychiatrist to help direct the patient’s state of mind. Many doctors do not have that empathy with their patients are just interested making more money.
How the Fu$$ is this different from recreational drug use?!
Don’t normalize drug use!!!!

Would doing ketamine therapy negate a person's sobriety?
All the research I can find is that doctors are obviously leary with using any drug that could bought in the street fir an addicted person, but there are a handful of smaller studies that really ponit out the benefits of using ketamine in conjunction to other therapies for getting over those main hurdles of addiction. Granted every single person is incredibly unique in biochemistry and thought patterns.. But from what I have researched, when doctor lead it can be incredibly beneficial even fir addicts- but just be honest with yourself and rhe doctors. I've fallen into a research rabbit hole on ketamine the past 2 months after my first experience with it in the emergency room. For reference I'm a research nerd with a masters degree in Chinese medicine and acupuncture.
@@heatherkaye8653 oh, awesome!! I want to go to school for acupuncture!!!
@@emilyhadley8168 I'm obviously very biased.. but yeah, you should totally do it!! It was the hardest thing I've done full of challenges but once the clinic time started it was all worth it!

So rewarding!
Nope I don't need that drug thanks Dr., I only cry when I play League of Legends.

What About ocd patients
Sir I had ketamine last week but there was no result for ocd and I got fever and abdominal pain... Is this normal or need more sessions.
Is Ketamine therapy something that the patient has to ask for?
Sounds like what i heard about tripping with LSD. It all depends on your mindset going into it and being at someplace that is pleasant to your soul.

Well I live in Maine and have suffered😢from PTSD & anxiety from a terrible childhood of sexual and neutral abuse, and I can te😢you up up here they would NEVER consider this natural type of therapy! Instead I'm stuck with a therapist and a psychiatrist who prescribes clonazepam, Gabapentin, antidepressants ((which I refuse to take) as I've repeatedly told my doctor I'm not depressed, I have severe anxiety! Aside from that, I spent a year trying every antidepressant imaginable and had
horrible side effects! So my question is what can you suggest for me to find a program like thus? P.S. I have had experience with LSD and ketamine in my younger years and can honestly say it was the happiest care free emotional times I ever experienced. And this was during difficult times I mentioned above!
Thanks for the information
After an accident in Bali Indonesia in September 23 i spent 7 days in hospital. They fixed a trimalleolar ankle fracture there. They put me on Fentanyl and Ketamine iV. I watched the Basketball World Cup Final 2023 Germany vs. Serbia. Seeing Germany becoming Basketball World Champions for the first time ever while i was on Fentanyl and Ketamine was so overwhelming... 😂😂
as a childhood abuse survivor this seems like a great option to help
so many who suffer ptsd very informative video
I'm from Brazil. Last year I underwent THE longest ans strongest anxiety crisis in my life. I have just known from you about ketamin for this sort of treatment. I'm still taking Venlaflaxina and alprazolam and I have the feeling of being in the vórtice of a hurricane that might hit me up again at any moment, it's terrifying. I talked about this with my psychologist and psychiatrist and they say it's an expected feeling after such strong crisis.
Is there this Ketamin treatment here? I want to know just in case it happens again.
Oi! Respondendo em português mesmo :) já existem, sim. É um tratamento caro e normalmente os planos de saúde não cobrem. Isso a menos que você recorra à via administrativa ou à via judicial, porque o uso de cetamina como antidepressivo aqui ainda é off-label pela Anvisa. Eu atualmente faço tratamento no hospital universitário da minha cidade. Desejo melhoras pra você!
I’ve seen a lot of videos of the cute monkeys and they give them Ketamine to control them…. Sadly some of them died from overdose…
But I’m too afraid of having an adverse reaction like I did with the first dose of Prozac and I had horrible guelish nightmares the very 1st time…
I think I’d like to investigate more about this… I’ll have it done in my Purple Crazy Bus 40’ luxury motorhome… it’s my comfort place w a king size bed… I have a very hard time leaving my house… I’m borderline agoraphobic and clinical settings and hospitals really causes me to be panic attack anxiety
Ijust started Ketamine infusions but it is not guided and i am looking up at a ceiling with typeof strobe light but no eye wear on and hubby holding my hand and when I sort of freak out he is telling me it will be ok. It is a wild ride and I hope that it works this way. because of the cost and having to charge it on my credit card. I talk alot and move a lot,wonder if that is normal?
What happens if they become too distressed or they say something that is an unlawful memory where someone needs to be arrested ?
