Hello, my friends, I’m back. I am pondering returning to LTU, but I have a question (mostly for @Shannon).
I will be going to be going to a fully licensed medical doctor next week, and he will be administering ketamine to turn off the pain in my chest and to lighten my emotions.
(FYI, I do not believe that this post is in violation of Rule 16. Yes, some people use ketamine recreationally, but I am not talking about the use of ketamine recreationally. This is a deliberate administration of ketamine by a licensed medical doctor for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression. If a mod disagrees, I’m happy to delete this post, but I have a question.)
The doctor says that after every administration of ketamine, there is a 2–3 week window of neuroplasticity in which I have the opportunity to work on training myself to be more resistant to stressors and triggers without the influence of emotion and pain. And so I immediately remembered LTU.
The problem that I had when I used to run LTU (and DMSI) was that my subconscious pushed back hard by inflaming the pain in my chest, to the point where I had to stop. Perhaps under the effects of this new treatment LTU would be effective since the treatment would be quieting the tools that my subconscious used to push back.
I am not considering using LTU during the time of my treatment, nor for 24 hours afterwards, as the ketamine would still be in my system. It would be during the weeks afterwards, to help reset my brain to be better, while there was lowered resistance due to the treatment.
So my questions:
1. The LTU page says: “If you ingest caffeine, nicotine, THC or another toxin or drug that normally alters your mental, physical or emotional state, this program will seek to override that state shift and return you to the optimal state in which to achieve the goals of the program.” If I don’t use LTU during when the ketamine is in my system, but only in the emotionally better time following it, that shouldn’t apply, right?
2. Does this strike you as particularly good or bad idea?
I see this as an opportunity to rewire my brain to not behave as it has in the past, and I thought LTU might be a good idea. If this strikes you as a bad idea, or even just too risky, I’m OK with taking a pass on it and proceeding with only traditional therapeutic adjuncts to this therapy, but if not, I’d like to use every tool that I can find to help this work as well as it’s able to.
Thanks.
