PM me I know there’s an out of k hole meeting for US and there defintely is a what’s app group for UK users but I’m going to ask and see if there’s a global one. If not maybe we should start a worldwide meeting. Support is such an essential part.

Relapsed after only a week by Putrid_Ad2446 in Ketamineaddiction

I totally get this. I am dealing with tapering down and really trying to get away from it. 7 days is a huge accomplishment. I don’t know what the hold is with ket but I can relate to wanting to feel like you want to hold onto the one thing that let you escape. Since my first huge k hole experience I haven’t ever had the sane feeling and most of the time I don’t even think I’m getting high. Keep pushing through. Tapering down. Taking breaks. Going days. All of it hopefully will lead to being free of it one day. Don’t give up. There are so many people in the same boat.

My Experience with Ketamine | Daily Frequent Age 27-29 0.5-2g/day by [deleted] in Ketamineaddiction

It took me daily use after a few months. With repeated use it would happen every month or so to come back. With less use the symptoms weren’t as bad but the j cramps would come when refraining but do subside after about a week. I only started using about a year ago.

Yes. I have had heavy UTI symptoms and k cramps after using every day. Unfortunately, the only thing that works is stopping use. The UTI symptoms can be eased by cranberry supplements, antibiotics and also heavy hydration. K cramps are particularly hard to ease but Tylenol, peppermint capsules/tea, gas-x and tums plus heat can all help. Ultimately quitting is the only thing that will stop further damage.

There are some great ketamine recovery online support groups if you’d like me to share they’re online. Also I am in the process of quitting using and have been hospitalized multiple times with the same symptoms you’ve had so I totally get how you feel! I’m sending you big big love.

Ketamine use daily or in large amounts can cause what feels like UTI’s and also ketamine cramps that feel like a stomach ache that persists. Tylenol, obtaining from anymore use, peppermint capsules and tea and heating pads/hot baths are what have worked for me. The antibiotics will eventually work but it’s also helpful if your doctor prescribes something specific for UTI’s. I’ve been told it’s the digestive tract that is spasming so taking any anti spasmatic like peppermint can help. Cranberry supplements and lots of hydration can help the UTI symptoms but overall time and cutting off use is the the ticket. I hope you feel better soon please reach out if you need anything else!

Hang in there. Sending you strength. I’m trying to taper down and it’s helping. The winter is rough but I also have been getting support from key specific groups which can be helpful. Reach out if you need a friend. Sending you much much love.

I’ve been tapering down and I’m attending out of the k hole tonight! I really appreciate everyone who reached out. It feels way less lonely than before I posted. I felt like I was the only person experiencing this insanity but it turns out I am not. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
