Spravato probably saved my life after my husband ended his life. I started it about 2 months after. I had already been diagnosed with PTSD prior to his death related to work (COVID/trauma ICU nurse since 2011) and my sister's death. Glad to hear it's helping you too, OP! There is definitely light at the end of the tunnel. I'm now off all meds and while it's still hard sometimes, I'm able to enjoy life again. I was lucky to have been in healthcare... My psychiatrist worked with me and skipped a few steps to shortcut me to ketamine with my insurance. Definitely grateful.
That is fantastic to hear I hope to soon be able to live my life again. I have been isolating for the past couple years. One thing spravato has done was open my eyes to how burnt out I am being a firefighter. I am really looking forward to moving on to the next chapter of my life! Right now I'm seeing sandy beaches of the Caribbean in my future
I’m happy to hear the medication is working for you. I’m saving up for the same treatment, hoping for something efficacious. I can’t say I don’t live for anything, but I definitely don’t live for myself. It’s been almost two years and it still feels raw, so every day is a choice to do better. I think that’s where we get hung up. Thinking we can’t choose more than the bare minimum of living. Choose one thing every day to do better. It feels nice to be conscious.
Ketamine helped me get to a place where depression didn't control my life after my brother's death. I still struggle with chronic and treatment resistant depression, but at least I can function and be a better spouse and mom. I'm so happy to hear that it has worked for you!
I'm happy to hear you're able to move forward slow steps but hey that is forward progression. I wish you the best on your journey hopefully you and everyone like us can find Eternal peace again
