Hi...can I be a test subject or what is the criteria for or application for participating? I do need this treatment but cannot afford the 525.00 amount for the 6 treatments that are recommended. I am new to research projects and am desperate for this treatment. Thank you. Earglemudpie@hotmail.com.

About This Project

Does the Experience of Awe Predict Ketamine's Rapid Antidepressant Effect?

Ketamine Treatment Centers of Princeton

Ketamine is a very rapidly-acting and safe antidepressant medication given as an intravenous infusion, during which people may experience a brief dissociative state. Extensive research into the mechanism of ketamine has focused on physical/chemical changes in the brain, but little is known about the therapeutic role of the experience itself. Many describe a sense of profound awe during their treatment, and we want to see if the feeling of awe and antidepressant effects are correlated.
