Basic Ketamine Article

I can't remember if I posted this somewhere, but I think it's a pretty basic description of Ketamine. Thought some of you guys would be interested.

Yeah, I read years ago of attempts to make an antidepressant medication based on ketamine. I guess that they think they found a way to make it long acting without the nasty adverse effect of making on feel too good.

Ketamine carries a similar stigma to that of LSD. LSD-aided psychotherapy worked great in the early 1960s, but has been shelved until recently because of Tim Leary & his bunch releasing it to the general public without an instruction manual.

Just my 2¢ - Cam
