Ketamine can be used to relieve symptoms of depression, including those from treatment-resistant depression. While the ideal way to use ketamine is in a comfortable and safe setting and the treatment administered in the presence of a counselor or psychotherapist, many ketamine treatment facilities may not offer these services.
To help you get the best out of each ketamine treatment, here are a few tips you can use:
Ketamine is a dissociative drug so like with any other psychedelic-inducing experience, you should let go and see where the journey takes you. You should also try to learn something from the experience.
You should turn off notifications and put your phone on airplane mode. This will help minimize distractions and keep you on track with your healing journey.
Music is a good tool for supporting one’s inward journey and enhancing relaxation. You can create a playlist beforehand or download one. To further minimize distractions, you can wear headphones or earphones.
Many clinics are located in office buildings with harsh fluorescent lighting. Wearing an eye mask during your session can help you not only relax but also make the treatment a restful experience.
Medical offices tend to be air conditioned throughout, which may make a room chilly. To ensure you stay warm, pack a blanket or cozy socks to help keep you comfortable during your session.
Ketamine is a powerful drug and may leave you feeling dissociated from your body. It may also leave you feeling uncoordinated, finding it difficult to communicate or feeling confused. Having a trusted family member or friend with you during your session may help you relax and immerse yourself into the experience.
Many individuals feel out of it after a ketamine infusion. Even if you don’t, you should give yourself a break and cancel any plans you may have for the rest of the day. You can also stock up on food that’s easy to prepare to avoid the hassle of cooking when you’re not feeling up to it.
After a ketamine infusion, even going to the toilet may pose a challenge to some. Operating heavy machinery and driving is therefore out of the question. Taking public transportation, especially if you’ll be alone may also be overwhelming. Therefore, you can make arrangements beforehand and have your friend to be your chauffeur and make sure you get home. If that option is not available, you could also do your research and find a medical transportation company that is both safe and suits your needs.
In addition to this, you should continue taking your medication or supplements as prescribed. You should also take the time to reflect on what surfaced during your infusion. Recording yourself, journaling or engaging in any other relaxing activity will help you weave your lessons into your daily life.
The psychedelics space is seeing a flurry of activity lately. One interesting player to watch in this sector is Rritual Mushrooms Inc. They focus on developing products containing functional mushrooms, adaptogens and other superfoods so that people can meet the demands of life effortlessly.
