For Depression "An exciting experience that lifts you into a different way of looking at many things. Colors and objects appear more enhanced and even strikingly different than usually experienced, but quite interesting and most surprisingly more in depth."

"I want to thank everyone that gave a review of their experience with Spravato. I read almost all of them. I go for my first treatment today at 1:00 pm. I have anxiety because I do not know how my body will react. I have never done a drug that is “trippy.” Ever since I was 8 years old, my parents had me seeing a child psychologist, and I was on medication for ADHD. I have bipolar, and my depression can get really bad with my episodes (I have laid in bed for days at a time). I have also lost interest in so many activities that I loved. My mother had crippling bipolar with mania, severe depression, and dissociation episodes. I have tried so many medications for depression and bipolar. I have been interested in ketamine treatment for two years now. Spravato spray was approved by my doctor and my insurance. I picked the KETA Medical Center because I have heard good things. I will write back after my first week."

For Major Depressive Disorder "Although I haven't seen any results yet, it's important to remember that everyone's response can be different. After undergoing eight sessions, I haven't experienced any improvements. However, if you delve into the research, you'll find that this treatment was originally used as a horse tranquilizer. Logically, it seems plausible that a tranquilizer could be effective for addressing both anxiety and depression."

For Depression "I am astonished that this made FDA approval. In the emergency room, I was unknowingly given ketamine IV last fall, and as it was being dripped, I screamed for the RN with, 'What is that!!!' When he said, 'Ketamine,' I said, 'Get it out of me!' I was told it was to 'reset my brain,' and I was not at all interested in that."
