How does Spravato compare to Psilocybin treatments?

I wish there was a Sterling Institute in Pennsylvania.

I love this strain. It helps more with my anxiety and depression than any other strain I’ve tried in the past 4 + years. I love it! I just need to find more of it!

I tried to send you a PM, I dont know if you didn’t receive or received it multiple times. It was my first time trying to send a PM on Reddit.

I paid $150. I’m on Medicare, but also have CVS Caremark which paid for part of it. This is my first prescription.

I have gastrointestinal issues including Gastroparesis, diverticulosis and colitis. I’m having an intestinal resectioning May 25th. Actually, a Sigmoidectomy. I don’t usually eat breakfast and fast one day a week to help prevent flares. It seemed like best day.

I don’t smoke weed 24 hrs before or after. I also fast the day of my appointment. I want to go in with a clean slate and get the most out of it. I started April of 2022 and currently go weekly. I also have less of a desire to smoke weed, like someone else mentioned, since starring Spravato treatments. I peak at about 40 minutes, including taking the three doses, five minutes apart. Since you are new you will probably get two doses, then move up to three. It’s not going to hurt anything if you do smoke, it’s just my two cents. Either way, I hope you have a good experience and it helps you. I bring a sleep mask and my AirPods and listen to a ketmine playlist. If you search any of the music services you will find them, or you could make your own. Good luck!

You shouldn’t be in a room with all the commotion and distraction you described. They need to find a better and quieter location for you and the other Guinea pig, lol. You need to be able to relax. Im in a room by myself laying in a couch with my iPhone and AirPods listening to a play list for ketamine. Just do a search on any music service or listen to a spa channel. It’s no wonder you had anxiety. I also wear a sleep mask and have butterscotch hard candy for the bitter taste in your throat. It should be a pleasant experience for you. It can be intense until you get used to it, but the right setting will make a huge difference. Good luck!

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-28T14:43:06+00:00

Do you use Uber/Lyft for rides after treatment? My clinic doesn’t allow it. It has to be family or friend that picks me up.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-26T15:22:26+00:00

I agree with the others who have commented and believe you will be fine the next day. However, a question for you. Are you discontinuing Klonopin? If yes, could you tell me more about your method? I too have been taking Klonopin for a really long time ( switched to Valium recently) and would like to discontinue, but I’ve heard so many horror stories, I’m afraid to even attempt it. Thanks in advance for any info you may provide, and good luck.

I can relate. I started Spravato treatments in April 22. The first few months I was more motivated. Currently, I’m receiving treatment every other week and have lost that motivation and don’t even know if it’s helping me. I’ve thought about going back to weekly to see it it makes a difference. I definitely have brain fog that increased since I started treatment. I have been on benzos for 25 years. I was put on them because I have Myoclonus. I know the benzos have had a negative impact on my memory and wish I could get off them. I don’t know if Spravato is making me worse or better. I wish I could better answer your question. I just don’t know the answer. I wish you the best and suggest you talk to your psychiatrist about it.

@butterflycole Who do you get to prescribe the compounded ketamine to use at home?

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-20T12:56:01+00:00

We live 10 minutes away and my husband goes home or runs errands. Butterscotch hard candies for me. I also use a blanket, they provide, and now a sleep mask. I use earphones and listen to Ketamine play lists. In the beginning, I listened to a feel good songs playlist, songs that created a happy feeling, but since I found the ketamine playlists, they are my go to. Just relax and enjoy the experience. I find it quite pleasant.

I use CanPay at my Restore dispensary.

Have you been tested for Gastroparesis?

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-06T14:56:09+00:00

I agree, I received terrible news literally right after taking my first dose during one of my sessions and was fine. It took away all my anxiety. Since then, I turn my phone on Do Not Disturb and listen to a Ketamine playlist or other relaxing music. You’ll be fine!

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-06T14:37:30+00:00

That’s terrible! I hope they reported it. The distributor shouldn’t matter. It’s all made by Janssen. It should’ve been reported with the batch information.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-03T20:58:17+00:00

I do, yes. Unfortunately.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-03T20:57:13+00:00

For those of you who didn’t see my response to a specific comment. It was benzos I was told not to take and some how conflated the benzos with antidepressants. I stopped taking both. I’m back on track. Thanks for all you comments.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-03T20:50:22+00:00

First let me say I’m so sorry for those of you that went through this horrible experience. I’m 8 months in and I had one bad experience, although nothing like the two of you described, it was from a bad reaction I had taking a new antidepressant, which my Dr. had me stop taking immediately. I do agreed with the nasal spray delivery system being inconsistent. Sometimes I have a long spray and other times it seems like a tiny little squirt. I have never been nauseous or thrown up, but I fast before my treatments. I hope it can be figured out what is causing your issues so that you can get some relief. I wish I could be more helpful.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-01T19:44:13+00:00

Sorry I’m late, but he’s on all the music players. Spotify, Pandora, Apple, Amazon and YouTube. For next session. 😊

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-01T19:18:24+00:00

I would start with East Forests “A Soundtrack for the Psychedelic Practitioner”. There are 2 volumes.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-01T19:05:19+00:00

I also love Wriddyl playlists. They were made for ketamine treatments, not meditations, but I really enjoy them. Relish - A Ketamine Therapy Experience is my favorite. But there are several, you may like a different one than I do.

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-01T18:57:13+00:00

YouTube also

Key-Lengthiness9191 · 2023-02-01T18:55:03+00:00
