I get my 6th infusion tomorrow. I can feel a difference, but still score in the severe depression scores. But I was really bad. For over 30 years fighting the urge to die on a daily basis. MDD, PTSD, MST, severe conversion disorder with PNES (psychogenic non-epileptic seizures) in response to anxiety & severe pain, debilitating agoraphobia. Haven't been able to sleep for more than 2-5 a night for over a decade. Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, chronic migraine. The list goes on. I've been in hell for over 30 yrs. Now with the help of ketamine infusion I feel hope. I'm sleeping 8 hrs or more. I can go back to sleep ... which never happens. So even though my scores still point to severe depression, I can feel a big difference. It's criminal that the VA is not offering this therapy. It could really be saving veteran's lives. Like mine. I just thank my lucky stars that my hubby brought in a sizable commission check so we could pay for this.

I’m about a month out from my last treatment. I’m still getting better. It seems to have removed this wall of depression and allowed me to work directly with ptsd and my severe GERD. Wasn’t expecting the GERD except I’ve become much more driven and I’m eating slower. Smaller meals. Taking digestive enzymes consistently. Bouncing prior to eating to lower my hiatal hernia down. Off my PPI. It’s so odd the patience and vision I now have. I can see what I want to do and execute. I was missing this execution for a very long time.

Thank you for this video. I just had my third infusion yesterday. I felt more hopeless after it than starting it. This morning probably worse. I think I had high hopes since I am a fairly spiritual person, I even had a spontaneous mystical experience from deep self-reflection, but not much response from ketamine. I guess I'll have to wait and see after a few more

Hang in there! I had 3 months of zero depression symptoms, had a 6 day relapse, and after my session today, I feel even better than before! It was the most amazing thing to go from walking into the clinic weeping uncontrollably to laughing on my way out. I told them they should have made a commercial of me coming in versus leaving lol. But seriously, stick with it!

Is there any correlation you can draw that could predict response time and overall impact? For example, how depressed you are at the time of treatment, if you've done a lot of therapeutic work ahead of time, how in touch you are with yourself, etc. Thanks!

Any thoughts on why my first series of treatments seemed to have mild/moderate improvement, however after the initial series my experiences were still profound but little if any ongoing improvement in depression/anxiety? Having more than a dozen treatments over 2+ months I’m think I’m ready to call it quits? Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks for sharing your experience. We empathize with your situation, each person’s response is unique and some individuals simply do not respond to the ketamine therapy aka non-responder. Also, sometimes the symptoms of depression/anxiety can improve with integrating the experience in their everyday life (like incorporating boundaries, journaling, a physical practice, etc.) That being said, we and urge you to contact and speak with your ketamine specialist regarding what you are feeling and what to do next as they know your medical history the best. Good luck..

I haven't seemed to notice any differences either. The only thing I noticed was the dissociation during each 40 minute infusion, and then feeling the bad side effects right after like dizziness while I was waiting at the clinic another 1-2 hours before getting a ride home. I did notice each time after those bad side effects wore off I got some good feelings like feeling very calm. I got this feeling behind my eyes and the back of my head. The first infusion the good feelings were like an hour after the bad effects wore off but it only lasted for 20-30 minutes. The second infusion the good feelings lasted longer like for 3 hours. The depressive thoughts might come up but didn't bother me during those 3 hours. The third infusion I got such a bad headache and felt worse and didn't think I would even get those good feelings as I got the 2nd infusion but then it happened but it was like 3 hours after leaving the clinic. The 4th infusion those good feelings were also delayed again which I kind of expected. The 5th infusion I noticed feeling calm again 3 hours after leaving the clinic and the feeling lasted around 3 hours and I think even until I went to sleep but it wasn't as intense as infusion #2, #3, and #4. I am wondering if these feelings the same day which occured a few hours after the infusion is just some narcotic effect targeting receptors and/or is it when the ketamine is breaking down like leaving the body? Do these positive effects the same day even mean anything? I don't think they do since I go back to feeling depressed the following day. I would rather not have those feelings and wake up the next day feeling good after the 2nd infusion like what someone else experienced. I noticed after the 4th infusion I got such a bad headache that I couldn't even go to the gym and work out the same day and even the day after. I sometimes got a feeling the day after infusion #5 of feeling not a headache but just this feeling/sensation around the eyes. It wasn't the calmness feeling but it didn't hurt like a headache either so it was in between. It would start to hurt if I went to the gym and started to lift weights.

I will admit to being extremely jealous reading these reviews of people getting relief from depression. I've suffered my entire life, have been on several antidepressants, therapy for the past 5 years and I'm almost 60 yrs old. I would love to spend the remaining years of my life not feeling this monster that has destroyed me. My insurance doesn't cover ketamine. Why does government help pay for cancer treatments but not chronic depressive disorder. Nobody cares that you have depression until you're dead from it. Even when you have told both your therapist and psychiatrist that the antidepressants are not working. Then they just want you to try another and another and another. I'm not a Guinea pig!! I feel so hopless, angry and especially frustrated! You can't counsel a tumour out of someone's body or adjust your blood sugar by opening up and talking to someone . The chemical imbalance in a person's brain isn't going to fix itself by thinking positive thoughts and taking antidepressants in the hopes that it can find right where the imbalance is or isn't and therefore do absolutely nothing but just keep taking it cause it might work even though you've been taking it for years and try to talk yourself into that maybe you feel better but you know you don't.

That is a pretty low dose. Mental health infusions typically start at 0.5 mg/kg and increase to see the most benefit around 1-2 mg/kg (depending on how your body metabolizes Ket). Doses for pain are much higher and are infused over a longer period of time.

@ResetKetamine Hi there, I was hoping to get your input as I’ve been watching your videos for some time!…I started my IV Ketamine Infusions this week, my first infusion was on Tuesday and the second was today, I know my first infusion was 0.5 and I believe so was the one today. My question is based on my first two infusions, and hope to hear your input before my third infusion on Thursday next week as I’m concerned…first of all I am in Canada receiving it but during both of my first two infusions I have felt absolutely nothing, not even a sense of a relaxed state of mind let alone a disassociation…I have followed all the protocols for not eating before, medication stop times, etc. but am receiving zero effect of even relaxation. I know you speak on the goldilocks dose and wondered if you obtain that over multiple infusions or if it’s through calculations as they have been doing the calculations, but I have had not even as much of a sense of relaxation that a Tylenol 3 would give. I have gone in with intent, creating the setting, and everything else in my control but am feeling very disappointed so far as well as discouraged…it’s not cheap and to be feeling like I’m laying there for 40 minutes with nothing happening I’m starting to wonder what to thing or do, I would truly love your input or opinion on this and how you think I should approach my remaining infusions (or to not)? Thank you in advance!
