Adventures in ketamine (part 2)

It’s been a bit of time since I wrote part 1 of this so if you missed the first part of me talking about taking psychedelic ketamine treatments to treat my depression you can click here. So. The first treatment was weird as hell and I basically melted into another dimension. The second treatment theyContinue reading “Adventures in ketamine (part 2)”

Lost in translation?

Just saw that there’s now a Vietnamese edition of Furiously Happy, which is amazing and surreal.
