*sigh* the dose of 0.1 or 0.2 mgs that was in each spray of the ketamine didn't make sense, but thats what the pharmacy was telling me. i finally got to sit down with the owner/pharmacist today to talk about some things that might be able to help me, and he finally made the dose i was on clear. the ketamine is concentrated at 50mgs per milliliter. and there is 0.2milliliters in each spray. so, it turns out that i am indeed getting the amount of ketamine that is being used in trials for ketamine.
i told him i might not be seeing the psychiatrist that prescribed it anymore because of financial issues I'm having and i said i was thinking about figuring out a way to make sure i am getting enough ketamine in my system. he said to spray it under my tongue, that this would be about equal to an injection of it.

also, he made me feel less crazy for thinking that the meds i've taken have had longterm effects on me. he seems to be very smart and he actually uses what he was taught in medical school, unlike the doctors and psychiatrists i have been to. he is treating my situation just like I'm a patient of his and he's going to try researching something that might just help me.

i'm just glad that he made sense out of many of the weird side effects I've had from meds. he explained to me what mechanism the meds can take to cause these problems. which i had researched much of it and understood it somewhat, but it did make me feel a bit better to have a professional like him see just how this really is possible.

What did he say about the other meds you have taken in the past? Could you list them? Phillipa

so, ive been taking the 40mgs the doc prescribed and all it has done is made me a bit dizzy. i decided to take 70mgs last night and it was a bit more intense.
it would probably be more intense if some of it didnt go down the back of my mouth after i squirt it in my nose, so i am probably getting more like 45mgs nasally.

and to be honest, i am considering taking a dose high enough to put me in what they call a "k-hole"
i'm going to skip a day or 2 of taking it to keep my tolerance down and then i may be taking around 100mgs... possibly a bit more.

but if i want to experience the "K-hole" i need to be careful and make sure i dont use it all up, and therefore end up not having enough to reach that level.

Do you think your pharmacist would approve of your experiments? Not counting your doctor. How can anyone treat you when you are your own lab rat?
Just asking.

But since the doc is the one with the prescription pad I feel he needs to know. What if he knows something you don't know or the pharmacist. Now don't get me wrong as pharmacists are great to clarify but no license to prescribe so technically it's malpractice on his part. Phillipa

well, he didn't technically give me directions on how to take it when he mentioned to put ketamine under my tongue, he said it in like an indirect way. and when i told him buy thoughts that i might not get a benefit until i take a dose high enough to hallucinate on.. we talked about why that might could help me.

he didn't give me specific directions on how to take it.. i think he's just understanding my situation.

i wish i did have a doc to help me with this. I'm kinda nervous about taking a high dose at home.. but it is not like I'm going to find a doctor that will actually help me and monitor me. i'm planning on taking the dose by tomorrow morning. it will probably be around 150 to 200mgs.

I can't see what I have experienced as a K-Hole being therapeutic, it is just intensely, existentially strange. Try IM and increment your dose up by 10mg a day til you hit your target dose. It should come over you in pleasant interesting waves at the right dose.
