Studies overwhelmingly show that Ketamine has rapid & robust effects on mental health symptom improvement related to its psychedelic properties and unique pharmacological profile. How does ketamine work & what's the end result of receiving this treatment? Here are the key points: ?? ??Ketamine interacts with the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor, a critical component in the brain’s neural pathways. Ketamine produces a rapid antidepressant effect by blocking these receptors. ?? Mood regulation & cognitive function activity increase as a result of NMDA receptor blocking. ?? Ketamine indirectly increases glutamate levels in our brain. Increased glutamate?? enhanced neural connection. This connection is often times impaired in those struggling with depression & anxiety. ?? Ketamine promotes neuroplasticity-our brain's ability to form new neural connections. ?? Neural growth repairs/creates new pathways leading to positive emotions & thoughts. ?? Ketamine helps strengthen existing neural circuits that may be weakened in individuals with chronic mental health symptoms. The result? More resilient brain function contributing to improvement in our emotional regulation & cognitive processes. No psychotropic medication has this effect on neural pathways & growth ??
