Nasal Relief

Twice a week, under supervision, a nasal spray and two hours in a clinic recliner — esketamine treatment is unlike any other psychiatry appointment, and the people who have sat through it describe it with unusual precision.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts cover the referrals and the paperwork of treatment-resistant depression, the first dissociative session with its floating strangeness, the blood-pressure checks, and the slow accounting across weeks: mornings that arrived lighter, suicidal thinking that loosened its grip, or — for some — sessions that never became more than two odd hours. Writers describe maintenance schedules, the driving arrangements the drug demands, and partners in the waiting room.

Who it's for

For anyone weighing esketamine after other treatments failed, in the middle of an induction course, or accompanying someone who is.
