Special K (ketamine) as a treatment for depression

NYT article

I've suffered from depression and have taken anti-depressants for more than 25 years. While the SSRI med that I'm on takes the "edge" off of the depression, I've never really felt healed in any way. I try to keep up with research, and this intrigues me. If you take time to read the article, you'll see that, as usual, Big Pharma is using all of its tools to fight this treatment. Also, as with any new treatment there are professionals arguing its efficacy and safety. Interested to see where this goes. Article is a good read, especially for those who suffer from depression or is close to someone who does.

Do you know what Ketamine was used for in the past?

It'll be interesting to see how this turns out.

To stretch the time between visits, some clinics are now providing ketamine that patients can inject themselves at home, or ketamine capsules prepared by a compounding pharmacy. 


If this is the case, people will be lined up around the corner saying they're depressed.

But she had to stop in October 2013 because she could no longer afford the infusions, which cost $750 to $1,000.


Well maybe not if this is any indication of the take home meds cost.

You don't take those levels of the drug. LSD has also shown great results for treating various mental health conditions. Its like your brain reboots.
