to tell you the truth, i dont know how i could get ketamine yet. the psychiatrist the prescribed the rTMS treatment for me seems much better than m regular psychiatrist and im hoping she will be more understanding of what i need.
i dont understand the whole mechanism behind how ketamine is thought to help, but there is 1 other med that i have in mind that seem to enhance dopamine in the same way that cyproheptadine did for me. i cant think well enough to type out the whole story, but basically my prblem is that mirapex shut down my dopamine system. and made me completely intolerant of normal dopamine increasing meds that force an increase in dopamine. adderall did the same thing a few years ago, and cyproheptadine fixed it. more recently, with the mirapex, i ended up taking cyproheptadine again and it helped, but i ended up taking it for much longer this time and at much too high of a dose.
but anyways. im thinking saphris might hellp through it 5ht6 antagonism, but i dont know if it will help enough, unless it has a much stronger effect in normal prescribed doses than cyproheptadine did.
