My sixth session of Ketamine felt like a completion of a cycle.  This journey, though at a higher dose (similar to my 4th session), felt remarkably mild.  

While the second through fifth session included incredible insights, deep dives into anxieties, triggered memories of sorrow and abuse, and reawakening of stagnant emotions, this sixth journey felt like an easy emptiness.  

While the previous journeys had included a tremendous amount of motion, clicking through to various scenes at a rapid pace, cycling through experiences and emotions, this journey was slower and softer.  One scene included a gentle landing where everything was made of stuffie material.  Another, a scene of connection with my sister.  Nothing felt heavy or permanent in this psychedelic experience. 

Even coming out of the journey back into the real world did not feel jarring, but rather fluid and easy.  

After six sessions of Ketamine, my process is, for now, complete. 

I see myself being less emotional, less reactive, and less compulsive in every realm of my life.  I find that obsessions don’t circulate for more than a beat, and intrusive thoughts are far less common.  The reduction in anxiety is palpable.  

My last Ketamine session also left me with a strong sense of spiritual connectivity. I felt united with everyone I love.  I was not desperately clinging to their love, like in the second journey, but just allowing myself to receive and accept the ebbs and flows of these connections. 

I feel content.  

If anxiety and OCD have robbed me of anything in my lifetime, it is this present-moment peace.   Previously my brain would cycle back to anxiety like fuel.  I feel like Ketamine has reset my brain to allow contentment to be the default.
