Wow, this was so interesting to read. I took ketamine with a friend when I was 21 and it was the worst experience because I am sure I had too much. I always wondered what it felt like for those seeking it as treatment. Your story is so well-written and described.

MIchele, thank you so much for your kindness.

I went in without any expectations, and the inclusion of my husband, and the warmth of the doctor and nurse, made me feel incredibly safe going in. The environment was also very controlled which I am sure had a lot to do with my experience. I look forward to going for another treatment.

I know the dosage was unique to my stature and weight, and it felt strong, so I can only imagine how scary that must have been if you had too much. I hope you have a better experience if you ever decide to try it again.
