You can mention the war, that’s fine with me.
But maybe safe it for a good occasion.

I didn't choose to get covid but now that I had it I'm glad I already had it.
But only because it was not so bad.
But you don't know! Some people around me have it much worse and they were also vaccinated. It's a gamble.

Jerome, I know thw feeling that the sun oppresses me.
When its too sunny I feel the sun is screaming at me.

On March 5, 2019, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first new medication for major depression in decades. The drug is a nasal spray called esketamine, derived from ketamine—an anesthetic that has made waves for its surprising antidepressant effect.

Because treatment with esketamine might be so helpful to patients with treatment-resistant depression (meaning standard treatments had not helped them), the FDA expedited the approval process to make it more quickly available. In one study, 70 percent of patients with treatment-resistant depression who were started on an oral antidepressant and intranasal esketamine improved, compared to just over half in the group that did not receive the medication (called the placebo group).

“This is a game changer,” says John Krystal, MD, chief psychiatrist at Yale Medicine and one of the pioneers of ketamine research in the country. The drug works differently than those used previously, he notes, calling ketamine “the anti-medication” medication. “With most medications, like valium, the anti-anxiety effect you get only lasts when it is in your system. When the valium goes away, you can get rebound anxiety. When you take ketamine, it triggers reactions in your cortex that enable brain connections to regrow. It’s the reaction to ketamine, not the presence of ketamine in the body that constitutes its effects,” he says.

I can't access the KATG website from work, it's blocked as "pornography". And if I want to listen to the VIP feed I have to download the episodes before I get to work, it won't even play those.

I actually had medical ketamine. It was in hospital (in the UK) after I had an external fixator put on my leg, so I doubt they’d give you a prescription to take home. I remember feeling completely numb and sleepy, it was nice. But yeah, that was in a very controlled situation.

The iOS KATG app is to circumvent the man. Think different.
