Ketamine Therapy And Cannabis: A Potentially Unhealthy Alliance
This article discusses the author’s experience using ketamine therapy alongside cannabis and argues that the combination may be an unhealthy approach for managing depression and anxiety. It focuses on long-term effects, self-medication, and the challenges that can remain even when ketamine relieves depressive symptoms.
Course Overview
This course page is a blog-style discussion of ketamine therapy and cannabis use, based on the author’s personal experience. It explores how ketamine may help relieve treatment-resistant depression while also describing the author’s view that cannabis did not remain a helpful companion treatment over time. The content addresses mental health management, self-medication, anxiety, depression, and the process of recognizing underlying behavioral and emotional patterns. It also reflects on the limits of ketamine as a treatment when broader recovery work is needed. This material is most relevant for people interested in ketamine therapy, depression recovery, and the interaction between ketamine and cannabis. It is presented as a narrative and reflective article rather than a formal training course.
