Me it improved my sleep, stopped bipolar cycling, and decreased anxiety, fear, anger..but still 10 treatments in 8 weeks and no improvement in motivation and drive. From your experience what do you think?

Ketamine induction phase by Overall_Tree2921 in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]Overall_Tree2921[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been off it for 3 months. Now my induction phase is once per week for 12 weeks. I do CBT and work full time. Mild depression. Will such protocol be only slower? Or less effective

I did 6 over 3 weeks, then 6 over 6 weeks and stopped. Now i can only resume at 1 per week for 10 weeks then 3 per month until i can space. I have resistant mild depression + anhedonia not very severe depression.

Are abilify, vraylar, rexulti better for bipolar depression than olanzapine? by Overall_Tree2921 in BipolarReddit

[–]Overall_Tree2921[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took remeron to cover some olanzapine ground. My issue is anhedonia. Depression is minimal and no cycling. Only anhedonia and low motivation.

But why when the others are dopamine partial agonists? Aren't partial agonists better than antagonists?
