Great piece!
I have been taking IV ketamine infusions for the past two years. After the initial six-pack of infusions, I noticed a profound remission of my depression symptoms. I still do monthly infusions thereafter. The "healing" lasts about 2 weeks before I notice it gradually wearing off.
The pandemic era (and its associated loneliness, doom-scrolling and isolation) has forced depression and dread upon me a lot, but I can tell there's still improvement over baseline post-infusion.
I can kind of imagine how much worse I'd be feeling without the ketamine, and I don't feel like experimenting. It really is that helpful.
Wishing you continued improvement and curiosity!
