I&#x27;m skeptical of the long term benefits of Ketamine. It seems odd to give an anesthetic, a depressant, to someone with depression. They claim it reduces the risk of suicide and works quickly, but is that due to a curative neurological effect or is it just because you&#x27;ve given them a sedative? Not to mention the side effects: memory loss, delusions, psychosis, even schizophrenia-like symptoms. Sure, these tend to happen at higher doses, but  the long term effects of low doses have not been studied thoroughly.
