Ketamine Infusions

...See more Hello everyone, So I had my first ketamine infusion yesterday and it was a terrifying experience. I was knocked out within 5 seconds of receiving the medicine, I woke up with my body tremoring uncontrollably and the room was separated into 3 discs that kept over lapping until after awhile it started to become one. While I was “out” everything was black and different shades of browns and tans and jagged. My blood pressure shot up higher than it’s ever been and my resp rate went to 27. My heart rate was 123. From all the research I’ve done prior to the appointment I was under the impression you remain conscious during the treatment. I was wondering if anyone else has had this treatment and if this happened to you? Also my boyfriend was with me and said I was out for 10 minutes and my eyes stayed open the whole time

I feel like my life is falling apart

...See more Hello, this is about to be a book so I apologize in advance: I was in a car accident a little over year ago and since then everything just seems to have fallen apart. Prior to the accident I suffered with anxiety, depression and PTSD from my childhood and life in general (I have had a rough life) but now everything is so much worse mentally and I am in so much pain all the time I can barely do anything. My quality of life is horrible. I have 2 kids who I feel like I’m failing because before the accident I was able to work, take care of the kids, the house and the pets easily. I was the one who did it all. Now I can barely do anything around the house, definitely can’t work and barely am able to spend time with the kids. I’m relying on my bf for financial support which I feel terrible about because I’ve never relied on anyone else in my life for financial support like this. I hate waking up every day. I’m also afraid to sleep because I’m worried I’ll pass away. Things have been incredibly rough for me and I never thought my previous mental health issues could get worse than they were but here we are. I don’t know what to do to feel better. I have a doctor who (out of the many I’ve seen) has given me some hope. He was able to tell me what was wrong and wants to try ketamine infusions to fix it. I’ve been let down so much by doctors on this journey that my hope is very little and I want to give up but I’m trying to stay positive.
