Ketamine was approved by the FDA in the 1960s as a hospital anesthetic. It was then made popular as a street drug. Now this medication is gaining ground as a promising treatment for some cases of PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and major depression, which is the leading cause of disability worldwide. Ketamine for depression is the focus of this video, but ketamine can be used for a wider range of mental health problems.

According to Harvard.edu, "In the US, recent estimates show 16 million adults had an episode of major depression in the course of a year. Suicide rates rose substantially between 1999 and 2016, increasing by more than 30% in 25 states. Because of its rapid action, ketamine could have a role in reducing rates of major depression and ultimately reducing rates of suicide."

Kyle and Brigid both completed a thorough mental health questionnaire and examination, and consulted with their personal psychiatrists, before their ketamine infusion treatment.
