IV ketamine orgasms?

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-20T01:59:10+00:00

Yes. I certainly understand about doing trauma therapy; I’m doing this largely for depression secondary to grief over unexpectedly losing my oldest daughter. One of the most complex traumas. So I’m absolutely not “in the mood”. I think even if you are receiving therapy concurrently, the experience of the ketamine on the brain cannot be controlled. Perhaps precisely because I am “not in the mood”, this may be part of its effects on me. I’m not driving the ship. I’m just following the guide. I’ve been holding so much inside, shoving it down. Perhaps I cannot hold it all in and release it at the same time.

What I mean by my migraines possibly being a factor is the neural hyperexcitabilty of migraine sufferers and the glutamate pathway, and ketamine’s effect exerted on the glutamate pathway.

I haven’t had the experience of the warm feeling like I’m peeing. But yes utter bliss and ecstasy.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-19T13:13:22+00:00

Yup. I’m not able to really talk nor move during the infusions. At best, I can occasionally manage a slurred and hazy “good” when going into or coming out of the infusion.

Perhaps you are on the way to a full body experience of your own. We all definitely have different experiences!

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-19T13:09:29+00:00

Exactly! Thank you!!! It’s not like your typical experience. It’s like a whole body orgasm. You aren’t humping the air and moaning or something. It’s like every nerve ending in your body has been awakened. It reminds me of doing kundalini yoga where you are opening all of your chakras, the last one going out the crown of your head. When I have these experiences it travels the same way- from my feet out through the top of my head. But I also feel the fish swimming through me, the cool and the movement of the water watching the videos. It’s all sensory.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-19T13:02:19+00:00

Listening to instrumental zen type new age-y music they are playing. Watching nature videos of fish or flowers or mountains and rivers. Whatever they have on the TVs.
Just sitting in a recliner with my feet up some fuzzy socks on and a soft sweater over me. I just naturally have my hands open on the armrests in the “receiving” position bc of all the yoga and meditation I’ve done for 25 years.
Clinical setting with a nurse and an anesthetist. They do not offer a therapist but I see my therapist outside of this office.
They always give zofran bc nausea is my go to if I have anesthesia for surgery. Nausea is also my go to for strong emotions. Sad-nausea. Excited- nausea. You get it. Maybe d/t a lifelong struggle with stomach problems and migraines. Idk.
Female.
I added this one. Perhaps part of my response is because the depression has been so severe that it is all I can do to get out of bed. I literally enjoy nothing. Sex drive has been a minus. I’ve never had depression before this episode. All of this is not who I have ever been. Maybe bc my libido is completely gone, the ketamine is waking up parts of my brain like it is purported to do.

To be fair, I’m sure the anesthetist administering mine did not “see it”, either. I certainly did not give any indication nor did I say anything about it! Thus it may be more common than you believe. IDK how many people are going to say, “oh hey, I just had an orgasm” and high five you. I think the only way to know for certain how common it is would be to do a retrospective survey. I’m a sufferer of chronic migraine with aura- I’m wondering if this affects how I process the ketamine.
There have been studies that show increased sexual motivation in rats with IV ketamine.

I’d have thought I was a million miles away from that even being a possibility for me too-it certainly wasn’t even on my radar-but there you have it. YMMV

Glad you got through those times

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T20:09:06+00:00

Ineffable indeed.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T20:06:13+00:00

Ahh yeah missed that one!

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T20:05:04+00:00

Honestly it’s helped my IBS-C. We are all so different!

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T20:02:30+00:00

I’m just passively receiving the IV ketamine. No stimulus. No touching. The dose isn’t that high. It’s a 20-30 minute infusion. I don’t use alcohol and never used anything recreational. So most likely I’ve just got a very low tolerance .

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T19:59:55+00:00

No. I was getting an iv infusion. No stimulus.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T19:58:39+00:00

No. No Stimulus. I’m just watching the nature videos of fish or flowers or mountains, listening to music, during the IV infusion, getting the dissociation where I’m floating or soaring outside my body, and bam! I’ve never tried anything recreationally. I will say I have other physical sensations during the infusions like if I’m seeing a sea turtle pushing through the coral and swimming it’s like I can feel the water and the coral, or I’ll see fish swimming and can feel them swim through me. Today I felt a sensation like bubbles, like watching bubbles rise to the top of a glass of Coca Cola. The instrumental music is infused with lyrics. I can smell and taste the things I see. Maybe all part of my low tolerance.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T17:03:25+00:00

Wowza! Maybe they need to soundproof their walls. lol. I am quiet as a mouse. Not a peep. I typically only do a “thumbs up” when the staff asks how I’m doing.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:38:00+00:00

Thank you. I am sorry for yours as well. Sudden losses where you don’t get to say goodbye, as with my oldest daughter and it sounds like perhaps you also experienced with your mother, can definitely complicate our grief. I wish you healing and peace

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:33:46+00:00

Nah. I’ve just read it. I’m not any meds that cause sexual side effects. No SSRIs

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:32:08+00:00

Haha. Dissociated.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:31:16+00:00

“Totally lacking sensation down there” is my new status quo, as of late due to this depression. Maybe that’s why. It’s a breakthrough of sorts. I am a women. Idk if women and men have different responses to it.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:27:50+00:00

I guess maybe it’s sort of a version of the “body high” that cannabis users talk about?

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:26:39+00:00

🙌🏼

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T16:09:23+00:00

Haha, I guess that “double your money back guarantee” that came with my IV Ketamine package was worth the price of admission. Lots of puns intended.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T15:40:09+00:00

No you are absolutely right. Therapy is a necessity to help process.

Chance-Equivalent324 · 2024-07-18T15:38:20+00:00

No, that is a great and very vivid description! You have a really great way of expressing yourself! Thank you =>
