It also doesn’t make you stupid, it is a disassociative anesthetic so you lose touch, to varying degrees, of your senses. At high enough doses even your sense of hearing becomes strange and I would bet if my doc gave me more it would fail almost completely. That’s not a place I want to go however.
Despite that, and appearing to be incapable of coordinated movement or speech, the mind is still active. Altered, yes. But active and intact. I am always aware of my partner in the room/bed with me, the dog checking things out, I just choose not to interact with them to continue exploring memories, or alien landscapes, or just turn off my mind, listen to the music, and let the drug work while the most fantastic and surreal images come and go.
I’m here today because of ketamine. Disinformation and pearl clutching threatens to reduce access to it, and could cost lives, speaking only of this one niche use.
So you sound like someone with some experience using drugs (particularly those of psychedelic or hallucinatory nature), right?
So you would know that drugs effect everyone differently. Personally, I never abused ketamine, but I have k-holed a handful of times, and my personal experience was that it had a profound effect on me in many ways.
But that’s just my personal experience. Nothing more, nothing less.
Anyway, those who know, know MXE (methoxetamine) was way better for that brief period of time before the supply permanently dried up.
I’m not trying to diminish anyone’s experiences with ketamine, or reduce anyone’s access to it, though I do think it’s funny everyone thinks that some asshole on the internet has that ability.
Are you able to stand up when using ketamine? How about run? Could you tell me your personal details such as name/date/address? Could you tell me the time? Could you remember your mother’s phone number? Could you take a bath? Could you safely use a knife? Could you melt into nothingness and lose all sense of self, physicality and emotion?..wait strike that last one. Of course you could.
Now we’re at the point that we all realize dissociation is to become stupid and incapacitated. Anesthitized even?
That isn’t it’s mode of action, at all.

I’ve ingested a ton of ketamine myself, so theres no pearl clutching here. I’ll be back tomorrow to continue arguing semantics.
did you use if for medical purposes or fun times?

Ummm…?
I wouldn’t consider k-holing abuse personally. A k-hole is a desired effect of the drug for many people.
Ketamine can be addictive though, and I would consider frequent/habitual use to be abuse.
Yeah, that’s not abuse. If I was using it on a regular basis, then it would be abuse. I’ve never, personally, found it to be particularly addictive.
Your personal experiences are your own bud.
That’s literally exactly what I said. Good job.

Again, you’re not actually contradicting Pants, you’re just rewording and massaging their snark.
