Ketamine Infusions
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
That sounds horrible. I am so sorry that your body reacted like that. I haven't had ketamine treatment, but each person reacts so differently to it. What did the doctor say? @WitchMom15
The doctor hasn’t said anything, but from my understanding the only way you react that way is by it being given too quickly. The procedure was done wrong which is a shame but I’m trying to remain positive. I’m still feeling the effects today (the treatment was yesterday)
Ugh. Well I hope you feel better tomorrow. When do you have the next one?@WitchMom15
As of right now it was just the one time and the way it went it’ll honestly be the last time for me lol it was for pain more so than mental health. I’m also not feeling better yet, still feeling the effects it’s very unpleasant for me. I’m sure if I had it done correctly it wouldn’t be this unpleasant
Well calling it a "learning experience" is no fun, but you did learn. Maybe it will make you feel better in a few weeks....@WitchMom15

I want to do this so badly, but like i did when I was younger. In a club having the time of my life. I really believe all the self medication I did in my youth made me much happier.
I’ve never done ketamine in my youth or in any setting before lol they did it in a hospital setting and apparently did it wrong so I experienced the k hole and it was horrifying. I’ve done shrooms and smoke weed but nothing else lol besides drinking but I don’t drink anymore and have only done shrooms once. I’m thinking about microdosing shrooms though
