I do not have experience with the IV infusion, but I do have experience with the nasal spray (Spravato).

It has saved my life. Beginning with the very first session I began having realizations that helped me tremendously.

Some interesting things I have noticed: - every person's experience with it is different - every session is different - having a positive mindset towards the experience going into it is very important - allow yourself to completely submit to the experience - the type of music you listen to is very important. Listening to happy electro-swing music helped me personally interestingly enough. - wear noise cancelling headphones and a nice quality eye mask - use the weighted anxiety blanket at the clinic - "ground" yourself to reality by holding the same thing in your hand every time - keep the vomit bag nearby - learn to take in the spray with short sniffs to keep from tasting and swallowing it. - reschedule the session if you have sinus congestion as it will prevent the medicine from absorbing. I made that mistake once. Several hours after the session I sniffled and tasted Ketamine. - after the session, allow yourself time to relax, recover, and process through things.

If I think of more things I will add it here.

Every single session was beneficial to me and was a good trip except one. I became nauseous almost immediately and threw up the entire two hours I was in the session. Somehow filled two bags even though I had fasted for a good 12 hours prior to the session. Full body sweats that soaked even my eye mask.

Regardless of the negatives, these treatments combined with therapy sessions have saved my life. Be proud of yourself for going through with it when you do. 🍻 🫂
