    As someone who lives with PTSD and is currently receiving ketamine treatment I strongly disagree

      ketamine has permanently destroyed the lining of friend’s bladders leading to Hunner Lesions forever and now they’re more suicidal than before.

        Yes your friends anecdotal experience should totally be all the evidence needed to stop this treatment for everyone else. Forget all the peer reviewed studies that occurred before this treatment was legalized. We can now throw all of those out. You should send your findings to John’s Hopkins, Harvard and Stanford for review.

          Yes, let’s completely undermine a medical known issue for some people who have ketamine as therapy because it suits you.

          edit: I dare you, absolutely dare you to go into the interstitial cystitis and hunners lesions online support groups and use your audacity to tell the percentage of people in those groups who have burnt bladders that their stories are anecdotal. Let me know how that goes for you.
