Is the bladder damage also there for IM or IV use?
It's for any type of use as I understand it due to the way it is eliminated.
I've been in that mode of being down for a while now and have zero motivation now to meditate or exercise. I wish there were safer meds out there to bring out that stimulation to give you a jump start. Its that weird stage of I don't want to die,but I do nothing being alive.
I think you hit the nail on the head there. You need meds to give a jump start and get people out of the "pit" of depression. There is another alternative that may work TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) but it is hard to find places that do it. I was looking for ages but it needs to be administered on a weekly basis for best effect which means you need to live nearby.
I was looking at TMS as well! I'm actually a bit surprised that you would want to to do TMS over Ketamine. I don't know much about TMS so I'm still a bit ignorant on this subject but it would seem to me that TMS might have some long term dangers that we may not know of yet and that Ketamine might be safer? But I could be wrong.
Funny thing you mention TMS cause I was looking to do it as well, I found a few places in Connecticut and New York but none of them were under my insurance. I am desperate enough to try anything to hopefully push my depression & anhedonia away even if its just a tiny bit. There was a singer that live streamed his TMS session and went on about how he loved what it did for him but his name keeps slipping my mind.I think he did an AMA about it as well.
Have you looked into nootropics as well? If you know what might be causing your depression there might be a few of them that can help.
Also sorry I haven't been replying in the correct format, I just got on Steemit so I have to learn how to use it correctly.
Depends on what you mean by nootropics. I've looked into pretty much everything - a lot of things have very little or very poor evidence to support them.
