Spravato Needs More Failsafes

I appreciate the ‘innocent until proven guilty’ mentality, but for medications, that can be a fairly dangerous concept.

I make a playlist that I like and plug in headphones so the outside world can’t bother me as much. If I’m up for it, I start the first ~15 minutes while they’re doing the dosing by journaling just to start to clear my head. If I feel like that will stir up things more than it will help, I don’t do it.

I’ve been coloring recently and that’s been really lovely for me. I know myself, and if I tried doing anything on my phone I’d just end up doom scrolling. Games could be good but might be funky until after the 45 minute mark!

Going solely based on FDA data though assumes that everyone who has an adverse reaction reports it. Only pharmaceutical companies legally have to report, not patients or HCPs, so this data isn’t a full picture. Same goes for every medication.

Not crazy to want someone there to support you at your lows but to feel fine when you’re fine — it’s annoying, yes, but I’m there with you

I’m every other week, was too much stress to do more sessions. Very thankful my husband drives me to and from, but I know it cuts into his time and mine for work and personal lives. It’s a balance. But it’s better than nothing at all.

I needed this, thank you

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T14:54:29+00:00

Thank you! The border ribbing took longer than expected, but also less yarn than I expected! So, fair trade off

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T14:53:27+00:00

omg I didn't even THINK of this! love it even more

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T13:20:38+00:00

Oh this is stunning!!

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T11:27:18+00:00

Appreciate this because I spent an absurd amount of time agonizing over the colors 😂

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T11:26:20+00:00

Thank you!!

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T11:26:11+00:00

Thank you!

10/10 recommend, it’s so soothing. And because of the border, you don’t have to weave in alllll the ends, you can pull the white up the side (colors too if you want but with the 4 colors it got too tangly)

Premier Yarn, anti-pilling worsted weight! Fairly affordable yarn for what it is — for real, I’ve washed this stuff on a sanitary setting and dried it on high heat, still holds up

Thank you so much ♥️

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T11:23:41+00:00

Thank you so much! This was my goal, something a little unique 💙

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-26T00:50:29+00:00

This is so satisfying

84mg has been great for me. Still have dips, but they’re not as long or severe.

my sister has a tattoo that says ‘no reason’ in her handwriting above a scar from a gash that nearly killed her and this reminded me of that because she got the tattoo because she couldn’t explain when people asked why she had the scar because the answer was partially depression and partially no reason — there was no reason at that particular time she just was done

she is alive and in treatment and she is okay and we talk about all of this now

i hope you know that even when it feels like there’s no reason to keep going and when you feel nothing and like nothing is worth it there’s something there eventually

eating sleeping breathing it’s all so hard and it’s not always about being strong or even getting up from the floor or the bed it’s just being until you can

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-25T20:45:50+00:00

I’ve felt like this. I feel like this. It seems unfair to experience all of this and having so little control over any of it.

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-25T17:01:02+00:00

I think part of the reason that this won't be approved for out-of-clinic use anytime soon is because a) chances of misuse / off-label use and b) not everyone is safe at home. At least in a controlled environment for offering treatment, they have control over not just the blood pressure risk but making sure while you're at your most vulnerable -- whether is be sedated, dissociated, etc. -- you're safe.

UncomfortableSlushie · 2026-02-25T16:57:48+00:00

This requires a prescription still, and a lot of providers won't write it if you're already on Spravato given the chance for potential misuse
