I’m very curious about how much you take daily and the effects. I’ve read about the super high dosage therapy, and that made a lot of sense to me. Are you just ever so slightly dissociated at all times?

Not the OP, but I'm prescribed ketamine for chronic nerve pain.

Prescription is for 25mg orally 4-6 times a day, but I find 15mg as effective as 25mg, but with no side effects at all.

At 25mg I do feel slightly dizzy for an hour or so.

Ketamine has a small, but noticeable effect on the pain - but has had a huge effect on my ability to deal with the pain.

I dunno about them but, but I get by on 20mg taken weekly. If I miss a dose, it's usually ok. If I miss two, suicidal ideation is my dominant thought pattern. As for effects, I'm a little dizzy for about 30 minutes and I prefer to spend this time napping or in a hot bath.
