    Did infusions for 2 years. Broke a 20+ year addiction. Life changing is an understatement.

      That's awesome 👌 I'm curious after two years if you're protocol is now once a month or just when you feel like you need it?

      @@tex959 between 2019 - 2022 I did the ketamine infusion therapy at South Coast Ketamine & TMS in Encinitas, CA. I did an initial ‘battery’ of I think 6, 55 min infusions to find a comfortable dose and rabidly regrow my atrophied receptors. After that it was 4-8 weeks apart one 55 min infusion. When I stopped I had moved to pretty consistently to 8 weeks apart. Currently I don’t have access to the infusion therapy because I moved away from that area but I now have access to psilocybin so have been using that in microdses and for me it’s been extremely positive. The ketamine really closed a deep untouchable emotional hole inside of me that I never dreamed of being gone because I didn’t know of any time when i didn’t have that darkness in me. That was a huge change in breaking my addiction and gave me the hope I needed to do the hard work of tracing the addiction triggers and learning to manage them in a healthy way that didn’t rob my dignity.

      I was getting KIT sessions at 4-8 weeks depending on my stress level and finances. I don’t have access now as I live in another area but find 🍄‍🟫 to be an effective alternative. I use micro and macro depending on how sever my major depression symptoms are but thankfully the addiction cravings have never come back after the 1st year

    Did one series of 6 infusion treatments at the beginning of 2024, and I can't begin to describe how much better my life has been since finishing those treatments. It's unfortunately expensive for most people, but if you need it, and can afford to do it, it's very much worth it, especially if you integrate your experiences after each treatment. It's been a blessing.

    This along with mindfulness is a powerful combo. I remember that mindfulness book called 30 Days to Reduce Depression by Harper Daniels being a huge help for me, and the Tao Te Ching.

      He's being an extreme capitalist. It's easy to profit from a medicine that doesn't alter people's states, because an authoritarian leaning government is going to think that won't hurt their ability to control humans. Huberman is just a dude trying to make money. He's not here to give scientific information.
