I suffer from an anxiety disorder with underlying elements of depression as well. After tapering on and off multiple SSRI/SNRIs with very limited results, I started researching other treatment options and came across the promising research behind Ketamine therapy for treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. Having never tried Ketamine before and being the kind of person who generally does not enjoy feeling “high”, I was really nervous before my first session, but Deborah did an amazing job of helping me to feel mentally prepared. Once the initial dose kicked in, I realized that there was nothing to fear; I felt calmer and more at peace than I remember feeling in my entire adult life. It literally felt like an off switch for my anxiety, and my mind felt quieter than it had in years. So far though, my anxiety is almost gone and my overall mood and energy levels have increased. Time will tell how long this lasts I guess, but I’d definitely have no hesitation in returning to her for additional sessions if they eventually feel necessary. Thank you so much, Deborah! You really helped me a lot, and I am really glad to have met you.
