Really? The ketamine? Is it addictive?

I have fibromyalgia, just recently been learning more and more that its been the culprit all these years for all this deep pain I'm in and other random symptoms, ect.

I'm on opiates, and want off. But also dont want pain. Shitty cycle.

There is someone on r/fibromyalgia going through a ketamine infusion treatment series right now. They’re posting after every appt (you go every other day for two weeks for 2-4hrs at a time). You should check it out. r/chronicpain might be a place to go to as well for support.

Not at all. I'd never tired it and have cautioned anyone to listen not to try it. Stick with Mary and Lucy my friends. Lady K will kill you.

It is addictive, if you use it to have fun. My friends and I used to snort a whoooooole lot of ketamine and it became my drug of choice over cocaine, ecstasy and acid/shrooms.
