I am not sure if I have a Treatment Resistant Depression, but I sure have been on multiple SSRIS for the last 10 years.

I honestly don’t feel any of them have “really worked” besides being numb.

I want to stop taking them eventually, wondering if Ketamine would open me in therapy and make it more meaningful/impacting.

I’m a really anxious person, so the thought of trying Ket or psychedelics always gets me nervous, like permanently making my anxiety worse or wake up some schizophrenia (I have no signs, nor I have relatives)

I know that attentiveness and dopamine regulation won’t improve with ket, but has anyone else been able to treat the depression and anxiety that comes with ADHD?

    What dosage are you at? I personally for myself had to be on 80mg for it to be really noticeable, even then I never had the energy to get anything done when I was just on strattera and not a stimulant.

    Why does the scheduled stuff make you nervous? Usually with ADHD, stimulants can help prevent addiction issues down the road, among other benefits. Also, some of them like Vyvanse and Concerta were designed to prevent dependencies forming with the prescription itself.
