Methadone was the only drug that gave me a glimpse of how normal people live. It gave me an interest in food/appetite that I've never had, I could sleep, watch stupid TV shows, etc. It essentially slowed me down and made me comfortable enough to live life in the moment, on a day by day basis, like a happy-go-lucky regular person. Eventually I quit it of course.

I've personally never noticed any particular antidepressant effect from ketamine. I've gotten it more from 3F-PCP, but it only lasts a day or two.

Altas dosis de opiáceos pueden acabar haciendo tu depresión más profunda muy fácilmente, creo yo.
Big doses of opiates can end up making your depression deeper very easily, I think.

I know (have read post of yours) you were on an ungodly dose of methadone but don't remember for how long.
When I was on high doses, (not as high as yours, but still high), I felt really well for the first years, then it changed and it became boring and depressing, tapering it kind of helped a bit. Just my experience.

Yes, ketamine has helped me with depression and mood fixing. Not permanently, tho. Granted I didn't do any kind of a treatment at any of those unaffordable clinics.

I can relate a lot to this. The only time I ever felt this way was with oxycodone and diacetylmorphine. I’ve accepted I’m just destined to go through this world feeling as though I’ll never “settle in.” I wish I could blame this on drugs but I’ve had this feeling since as far back as I can remember.

Even right now, I can’t just sit and watch TV. I’m watching TV standing up, while on my phone doing this, with food cooking in the background. I feel I’m constantly moving cuz I can’t just settle in.

Yeah it was such a shift for me as well, normally I can never sit down and watch TV in the middle of the day without feeling extremely restless and bored (as well as feeling guilty for being unproductive). But on 380mg/day of methadone I could watch whatever dumb rerun was on TV at 1pm, then take a nap like a 4 year old, then wake up and eat an enormous meal. Never has food tasted as good to me as when I was on methadone, and my appetite was endless. Overall, it seems like heavy, round-the-clock dosing of opioids produces a sort of child-like state where one is more easily amused and carefree.

Seems to be the product of the sedation combined with the sense of feeling calm and comfortable. Children's brains are probably swimming in a sea of endogenous opioids.

While i was on suboxone/subutex and buvidal (weekly injection), i felt somewhat like a normal person should feel. Not grumpy and lazy and anxious all The time. So Yeah i can relate how it was antidepressant for me.

I got depressed from morphine and methadone (600 and 60mgs respectively), but with a stim on top like methylphenidate it was nice. Indeed very anti restless, I could sit behind a screen doing productive (or unproductive) stuff for hours and hours while usually I'm restlessly sitching between tasks or then be so tired that I have to take a nap.

IIt's kinda remarkable how much of us feel the seemingly same restlessness during depressive times when one would be supposed to be couch locked.. I've experienced both variants and honestly I'd prefer being bed or couch locked than constantly irritable and restless because the former way time passes much more easily.

For me dissociatives work like a charm, they solve both the depression and the ADHD restless type stuff but I don't get it protracted like supposed, I have to be on a dissociative for it to work. I have overused them and acquired a hefty tolerance though, in the beginnings I got a some days long very glowing afterglow from even DXM so I think it's myself to blame.

Ketamine never had lingering anti-depressant effects for me either, perhaps an afterglow for a few hours afters holing but that's it.

Ive been depressed and tormented as long as I can remember but I consider myself a survivor cause at all times I had a very strong inner force that refused to let those things take me down and I really fight back to make for myself the best life possible: this might sound rather abstract but find your inner force by finding things you find worth fighting for and also if you cant score ketamine dont dwell on it long time there are many substances that get the job done just find some other drug that works for you.
