Ketamine is an old anesthetic. I used it daily in my veterinary practice. It worked for all species. I used it in horses, cattle, sheep. dogs, cats and birds. It's a "dissociative" anesthetic. I experimented with it. And it literally dissociates one from the immediate environment. I gave myself an IV dose. When it took effect I felt I was floating above the room watching myself.

I tried this because I'd read that ketamine can treat depression when standard treatments aren't helping. There are ketamine clinics that do exactly that.

I don't think I'd enjoy feeling like I was floating above the room watching myself. Maybe the benefits (neuroplasticity) for PD are at a lower dose over time

I guess that was your one and done try?
