Drug Treatment Resources - Ketamine Addiction
Ketamine Addiction
Ketamine
effects take two different forms: physical and mental. Ketamine effects are most detrimental to the mental aspect of the user. Ketamine effects are devastating. At the same time the ketamine effects are destructive they are also seductive. People enjoy the drug for the same reasons that it is affecting them negatively. Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic. This means that the drug allows them to disassociate themselves from their own consciousness. This is what is known as the near death feeling. The slang term for the near death feeling is "k-hole". This is the desired ketamine effect.
Ketamine Addiction - Consequences
With the acquisition of this feeling of "k-hole" come many consequences. If the user continues use to the point of a k-hole they can begin to do irreparable damage. The perforation in their consciousness can become permanent. This then creates a neurosis that is inescapable. This leads to periodic episodes of complete consciousness perforation. If this continues the person can become insane beyond psychological assistance.
Ketamine Addiction - Other Effects
The more mild ketamine effects are the heart rate increases along with a slight euphoric feeling. This feeling of euphoria can be deceiving. For when something is truly wrong the user may not know it. If their body is being affected in a fatal way the euphoria will not draw their attention to the problem. This can lead to more use and sometimes to the point of death. The physical ketamine effects are mild compared to the mental ketamine effects. PCP, ketamine, and alcohol all belong to a class of drugs that prevent brain cells from picking up glutamate, a chemical messenger that cells use to communicate with each other. A person can become psychologically addicted to ketamine without even realizing it. Their thoughts become consumed with getting more and using more of the drug.
