I am not sure if I have a Treatment Resistant Depression, but I sure have been on multiple SSRIS for the last 10 years.

I honestly don’t feel any of them have “really worked” besides being numb.

I want to stop taking them eventually, wondering if Ketamine would open me in therapy and make it more meaningful/impacting.

I’m a really anxious person, so the thought of trying Ket or psychedelics always gets me nervous, like permanently making my anxiety worse or wake up some schizophrenia (I have no signs, nor I have relatives)

I know that attentiveness and dopamine regulation won’t improve with ket, but has anyone else been able to treat the depression and anxiety that comes with ADHD?

    Have you tried ADHD specific non-stinulant medications to see if they help your depression/anxiety? Strattera really helped mine, and so did Guanfacine. Could also try Wellbutrin too, which didn’t work for me.
