This study explores the experiences of patients undergoing oral esketamine treatment for treatment-resistant depression. It highlights the importance of preparation, emotional support, and a supportive setting, showing how these factors help patients manage the intense psychoactive effects and improve treatment outcomes.
This study uncovers how both pharmacological (e.g., LSD dose) and non-pharmacological (e.g., mood, personality) factors shape the LSD experience. By exploring how personal traits and current mood impact the intensity of psychedelic experiences, this research holds important implications for psychedelic-assisted therapies.
