Why do people like Ketamine?

That's Strong. Good to hear you.

All of that dry oxygen forced into my bleeding lungs was awful. And the fact that I hadn't eaten in the days before being hospitalized caused me to feel dehydrated. This was 5 years ago almost to the day and I still have both physical and emotional trauma from almost dying. All I can really say was, the drugs were good.

I simply do not understand the draw of using small doses of ketamine. Even more baffling to me is the "Calvin Klein" combo, which for me is a waste of both drugs. But I'm well aware that lots of people enjoy it.
On the rare occasion that I do take ketamine, I always aim for the K-hole or almost there. I'm only in it for the trip, and ketamine starts to get trippy from when you can no longer walk.

Because NMDA antagonists are like the postmodern version LSD & Shrooms. I got a LSD like trip from doing a very high dose of Nitrous at the dentist, I can't K-hole with 54mg Concerta in my system.

Look at it as a different drug and different high, it's gentler and relaxing, nice to chill and socialise on.

I prefer the khole too, in fact I've decided that when I do ket going forward it will only be to hole, I'll do it less frequently as a result, don't think that's a bad thing, doing regular small doses equates to a lot more ket overall

I'm a big believer in the therapeutic bens of ket because I've felt it myself.

i've thankfully never had it but IIRC nausea is a common side effect.

certainly has been a help for me with depression & exorcising a few demons, it's the old trade off though, are the side effects worth the benefits? If depression is your issue there are alternatives to ket that could help, what have you tried before? what's your journey?
