AFAIK, Ketamine when used for depression does not put you out. I inquired about doing clinical research, but sadly really couldn't bring myself to do it (ironically)...The study was for Ketamine to be used when those who feel suicidal end up in the ER...also it would have been administered by an anesthesiologist.

Apparently, there are Ketamine therapy clinics, but maybe not where you are....I know the effects are not permanent, but any relief is good relief.

I have commented here before about Tramadol. I was prescribed it for pain after a surgical procedure...I was totally astounded that my depression lifted (I know what depression-free feels like as I didn't have depression until 9-ish years ago.)
Tramadol didn't make me "happy" (like stoned-from-drugs happy), but it did something to lift the depression...

This is a way that things like this will get noticed....by us talking about it.
