Ketamine Treatment For PTSD And Depression?Known for its unique ability to help individuals deemed “unresponsive” to traditional psychiatric treatment, Ketamine therapy is often referred to as the “breakthrough” drug that allowed treatment-resistant patients to finally see significant improvement in managing their depression, anxiety, OCD, addiction, and PTSD.In this episode my co-host Mike Blasi and I speak with one of the leading Ketamine therapy Doctors in the U.S. - Dr. Robert Hiemstra. We talk about PTSD, depression and suicidal ideation, and explore the science of ketamine treatment. Where does depression come from?Can we cure it? Should we cure it?What is Ketamine?How does Ketamine work with depression, PTSD, suicidal ideation."Major depression has been a nearly untouchable disease for most of Humankind’s time on the planet. Traditional depression medications get many patient’s out the door, but not by addressing their depression. The common final pathway of depression, anxiety, and PTSD is the despair induced by three neurotransmitters shutting down. This is signaled by the lateral habenula burst mode. These transmitters include dopamine and serotonin." source: Ketamine SLCApodcast.com - Listen, Learn, and Share. Click the follow button on the podcast page to get more content from us.
