RE: Hope And Controversy: Ketamine As Depression Drug
Over the last 50 years I've tried most things for depression and found nothing that cures it. Not tried ketamine yet though...

I must admit, my first reaction was asking why they didn't use MDMA - because I truly believe that can make a change - it does for me. But the effects are only temporary, and afterwards you feel worse.
From what I read, Ketamine can alter the way you think...
I'm not an expert on the matter, however - I only found out about Ketamine being used against depression 10 minutes before I published this post. I knew it was used as a sedative, and apparently it can also be used when you suffer from a migraine.
However, I am familiar with depression. been suffering from it for a couple of years. I refuse all 'classic' drugs that they want to subscribe me, though. I don't get why they are giving people who suffer from depression drugs that have 'suicidal feelings' as a side effect...
Done most of the recreational drugs in the 70s and found they worked while I was on them but wore off and I was back to it. Did all the doctor drugs and found they made me suicidal and would never advocate taking them. Been doing meditation for 40 years for an hour a day and it helps. Done heaps of other things like tapping, massage, acupuncture, and so many more I can't remember them all right now. But what I find is that nothing works for long and sooner or later it comes back most times severe. I've been hearing of a new thing where your brain is wired up and electric is tickled in, but not tried that so can't say...
