Ketamine is a psychedelic medication that has been used as an FDA-approved anesthetic for over 50 years. It has both dissociative and anesthetic effects. More recently, it has been found to have strong anti-depressant effects when used at very low doses. Ketamine has been studied to effectively treat depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and eating disorders.
Clinical depression is a medical condition that goes beyond every day sadness. It can cause profound, long-lasting symptoms that do not go away with typical mood boosting activities. Depression can make it difficult for you to work, study, find satisfaction or perform every day tasks.
A person’s vulnerability to developing depression is related to many factors, including coping styles, genetics, changes in brain function, life stresses and circumstances. In the United States, nearly 20% of the population have a bout of clinical depression in their lifetime.
How might you feel while traversing the edge of a very steep cliff. Your adrenaline and cortisol levels may spike causeing your heart to race, your palms to sweat and your muscles to tense. While the feeling can be invigorating temporarily, the enjoyment may only come once you step away from the cliff and can look at your experience through the lens of calmness, safety and emotional regulation.
Those with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) feel as if they are on that “edge” most of the time.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) occurs after a particularly traumatic event, usually involving an actual or threatened injury to yourself or others. This event seems to stay with you, regardless of how much time has passed. It can quite literally alter the mechanisms of your brain processing, causing a heightened level of stress hormones and fear response This can result in recurrent flashbacks of the traumatic event, thoughtblocking or memory loss, intrusive thoughts, nightmares/sleep disturbances and emotional dysregulation.
