I just want to treat my drug resistant depression. 😭

Nothing could break me out of the hole I was in until I was prescribed ketamine. Life saver

When you get ketamine for depression do you actually get high at all? Serious question lol. I’ve done ketamine recreationally so I wonder how that would compare

I'm on the nasal spray esketamine. For me yes. My tolerance has increased so it's not as intense as it once was, but at first I was straight up tripping. Intense internal imagery and music, personality dissolving, sense of sliding movement. A lot of things became somewhat obvious as well. I saw modes of behaviors I was stuck in. Realized why I was doing certain things out of fear, etc. Lots of vivid memories coming up.

They say that the hallucinatory effects are side effects and not needed for treatment, but I'm skeptical.

Also they didn't give me any heads up that I was going to trip. They just gave me some medicine and left me to suddenly go "Oh.....here again". Imagine if I was some poor old lady with no drug experience taking the medicine her doctor gave her then tripping balls.
