After decades of medication and therapy, one ketamine infusion was all it took to begin to lift Susan’s debilitating depression. Read about how she’s experiencing joy for the first time in her life with KetamineTreatment.
I was about 6 years old when I began to feel that the world was dark, and I was very alone. My parents were neglectful and in denial about my. They weren’t equipped to raise a sick child. My dad was a military man, and appearances meant everything to him. It was the early ’70s, and depression wasn’t openly discussed. I still tried to describe how I felt, only to be told I was a “hypochondriac” who was “making a mountain out of a molehill.
I learned very quickly that my home wasn't a safe place. I was expected to be a perfect child, to do well in school and to be the peacemaker in my family, making sure everybody was happy — except me. I was painfully shy, so I didn't reach out to friends or other people for help. In my teens, I developed an eating disorder as a coping mechanism for my debilitatingand obsessive-compulsive traits, trying to control the outer world because my inner world was chaotic.
Over the years, I tried antidepressants in every category and a combination of other antipsychotic anti-anxiety medicines, but very little changed. At one point, I was on nine different medications. These cocktails of medications had horrific side effects — some of them were worse than my depression, such as ending up in the ER because I couldn’t urinate, hearing voices and having extreme irritability.
