Depression And Trauma Therapy
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an
incredibly difficult disorder to live with, but research shows that intravenous
ketamine for PTSD can be highly
effective. From military veterans to abuse survivors, patients suffering from
any type of extreme trauma are at risk of developing changes in brain
chemistry. When this occurs, patients commonly experience symptoms of fear,
anxiety, and emotional detachment. Conventional treatment options have included
a combination of psychotherapy and oral medications. Now, there’s an
alternative solution available for PTSD sufferers: intravenous ketamine. PTSD
symptoms can dissipate within hours after a ketamine infusion treatment, and
lasting benefits can be attained in as little as one to two weeks.
Ketamine is a promising treatment for
treatment-resistant depression and has shown positive results on depression and
suicidal ideations. As a result, this medication brings hope to those who have
been battling depression and giving them a window of significant improvement.
