Ketamine repairs reward circuitry to reverse stress-induced anhedonia

Ketamine rapidly treats depression’s anhedonia (loss of pleasure) symptom by repairing specific brain connections in the nucleus accumbens. In stressed mice, a single ketamine dose restored reward-seeking behavior within hours by strengthening synapses on dopamine D1 neurons from prefrontal cortex and hippocampus pathways.
Identifying specific synapses that support antidepressant effects may eventually allow researchers to design drugs that improve motivation without the dissociative side effects associated with ketamine.
Aw don’t tell me this.
I absolutely cannot afford ketamine therapy, unfortunately. I can say I’ve experienced the therapeutic effects before and they were great, but I absolutely *loathed* the sensations felt from recreational dosages.
Maybe this is why ol‘ Leon was high on it constantly.
Most redditors now “Yea but what about Elon and Matthew Perry”.
