• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I want to thank all of you that gave me advice about my depression. I came to the conclusion that it's a chemical imbalance. My walk with the Lord is strong so I was completey perplexed why i was always so sad. Its a medical problem. I did some research and found that a ketamine drug is available, its called 'Spravato'. Its been released about a month ago.

Please, I ask pray for direction with this medication and any other enlightenment to deal with my daily depression. Thankyou! ALthough, you guys gave me such good instructions/advice/and wisdom

Please be very careful with Ketamine. If you need medication please go to a doctor. What one person needs for a chemical imbalance and what someone else needs is difference. And you want to get a full check up to make sure it is a chemical imbalance. Please be safe about this.

Im on anti-depressants and have a doctor. But they do not work esketamine is for those who do not respond well to any anti depressants, which is my case. I'm very aware of my situation and should definately try this new med.

I see that esketamine, unlike plain ketamine, is an approved medical treatment for depression. As long as you are working with qualified medical professionals, I believe you should be comfortable that you can safely use it.

I will pray for you. May God help you to find the right path to overcoming depression, and ultimately increase your trust in Him.
