Has anyone tried Ketamine for depression?

I feel so stupid because I'm not sure how to send messages or reply to certain comments. anyway I posted this question earlier but I don't know where it went or if anyone saw it so I'm trying again. has anyone heard of Ketamine? It's suppose to really help depression and other mental illnesses. I don't know much about it and was curious if anyone has heard of it or has gone through the treatment. thanks.

I told u what I have been taking 4 almost 15 yrs. I was so frustrated bc nothing helped. Then I read this pamphlet at my docs office and I told him I want to try this. Lamotrigine 200mg once a day. Generic is Lamictal. I started out slow and worked my way up too 200mg. It have changed my life. Energy, less anxiety, focused

I went through a 6 week ketamine treatment and found it extremely helpful. I have had depression for a decade and it was one of the only things that made a real difference for me. The only issue is that it’s extremely expensive and most insurance doesn’t cover it.

I use Lamictal. Generic and it's changed my life. But there's another drug and I put it in my notes. I'll have to look for it
