Suicidal Depressed Man Says Ketamine Saved His Life

First-Hand Testimonial from a Ketamine Patient

KETAMINE EFFECTS | WHAT IS KETAMINE USED FOR?

Since the antidepressant effects of ketamine were discovered, its seems as though a Pandora’s Box of new uses for the medicine has been opened. Recent studies by the Columbia University Medical Center show that ketamine may prevent PTSD from developing in individuals who will experience a trauma – an especially hopeful discovery for our nation’s soldiers and first responders. Ketamine has also shown promise as an alcohol and cocaine addiction treatment. All of this on top of already being used to effectively alleviate chronic pain, treat depression and mood disorders, and – of course – as an anesthetic.

Using ketamine as a treatment for major depression is a relatively new practice. While ketamine has been used as an anesthetic since the 1960s, its application as a depression treatment didn’t start to attract attention from researchers until 2006, with the first ketamine infusion clinics opening in the US around 2012. With a 70% success rate in improving the symptoms of depression, ketamine infusions have become increasingly popular, bringing hope to those who had none.

Research continues to yield promising results about the use of ketamine as a treatment for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. Beyond mood disorders, ketamine has also recently been used to effectively treat alcoholism, addiction and chronic pain. As potentially life-changing applications for this drug continue to be discovered – and as clinical trials continue to prove its viability as the most effective depression treatment available on the market – the negative stigma associated with ketamine is slowly slipping away.

Ketamine therapy is arguably the most effective depression treatment available on the market today. 70% of patients see a marked improvement in their symptoms. A “marked improvement,” however, doesn’t mean that a patient goes from suicidal to sunshine and rainbows overnight, though there are some dramatic success stories. More often, ketamine infusion therapy lifts the fog of depression just enough to enable the patient to live a richer, more fulfilling life.

Over the past few years, ketamine infusion centers have been opening up across the country, bringing new hope to millions of Americans suffering from major depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mood disorders. However, most ketamine clinics are privately owned and operated, making it difficult to discern between reliable and irresponsible ketamine infusion centers.

HOW IS KETAMINE TAKEN | WAYS TO TAKE KETAMINE FOR DEPRESSION

In the United States, intravenous ketamine infusions have emerged as the primary route of administration for the treatment of depression. However, there are other ways to take ketamine, including orally with ketamine pills for depression, sublingually, nasally, or intramuscularly. Each route of administration offers its own unique benefits.
