Let me say upfront that I do not intent to glorify this substance, from what I understand it has also got a potential for abuse, and addiction, and also it is unclear how exactly it works or what the long term side-effects could be.
However a few things about it did catch my attention. Just looking at it upfront it is incredibly practical because it is cheap, legal, easily obtainable even in it's pure form. (Not powder perse, but pure DXM capsules, sure)
There have been studies on ketamine helping patients with addictions and treatment resistant depression, with immediately acting effects, we all know about that but since ketamine is controlled, not everybody who needs it could get easy access to it.
Luckily there is an alternative, this compound has similar pharmacological action and it's primary effects come from NMDA receptor antagonism which is believed to play a contributing ketamines positive effects regarding psychological issues such as addiction and depression.
So far I've only had one experience with it, not expecting much out of it. It took just above the threshold level (150mg) and didn't like the experience at all. For the most part I just waited for it to be over. Not much to say about it, it felt like a card being inserted into my brain occasionally blocking some information from properly being worked out leading to minor confusion and just being weirded out for no good reason. So yeah, as a recreational drug it sucks balls.
Anyways... the remarkable thing happened after the experience. The next morning I woke up feeling normal, the morning wasn't filled with regret about just waking up and having to go through the same shit all over again. I figured alright, might be some lingering effects that are raising my mood but that was not the case... I didn't come down from feeling normal, since then I haven't even had a single cup of coffee, a single cigarette, joint, pill, line or otherwise.
Mood levels remained stable, not euphoric, but relaxed and content and relieved from not being lethargic and depressed anymore. I actually realized for the first time since ever what normal feels like, since depression and to a bigger or lesser degree addiction was something I struggled from teenage days, and we all know that we can't count what you felt like as a teen to be normal.
Now I realize that resenting each day just for being alive isn't something that everybody struggles with but some cope with it better and some worse.
This was also coupled with exercise and supplementation with moringa leaf, maca root powder, raw cacao beans and a quality multivitamin which can also be attribute to raising mood levels, but still, before that just helped just so slightly to better cope with it all, but now I wake up fresh, content, and most importantly not even withdrawling.
That's right, withdrawls have completely vanished over night, cravings persist from time to time but are easily shrugged of since I really don't need those addictive substances, and realize that they could just throw away this balance I achieved right now, and possibly not even make me feel better.
So to anyone struggling with addiction and depression, and nothing has worked so far, give this thing a try. You don't need to megadose, one day of minor inconvenience for what seems a reset that lasts as long as you don't decide to screw it all up again.
I have no questions unlike most of my other posts, just sharing my personal experience that I believe could work for a lot of other people as well since I was a hard case. Feel free to tell your view on it or perhaps also experiences.
Again, I don't promote it, and honestly I wouldn't take it again for fun even if I was the most desperate to get any kind of buzz, but I do find the after effects to be fascinating, and if used responsibly I do believe it has an atypical therapeutic potential which is worth to not and the word should be spread since both addiction and depression are serious matters, that need to be dealt with proper care.
