14 weeks manic and suicidal

Hi @blutitanium I have had ketamine infusions for the past two years. I can honestly say it is like a light switch in your head. The infusions work on about 80% of the people that go through the series. I am one of the lucky ones. If you have tried other options and nothing worked, this might be a solution. The nasal version is covered by insurance but the IV isn't currently. There has been some talk about it being covered soon so I keep hoping. Spervato uses one of the ketamine molecules instead of both so there is a chemical difference. If Spervato doesn't work, ketamine infusion still might. If you have other questions, please let me know.
I hope things get better for you.

Hi @mandrake70 I will definitely keep this in mind. Is the nasal version painful by any chance? I have heard that on the 3rd day one gets really ill during the administration of ketamine into the body. Is this true? How quickly does ketamine get to work into your system and what can I expect my body to feel afterwards? Thank you kindly for your reply, it is much appreciated.
