Ep 8 - "K" is for Ketamine and Kat

February 16, 2021 • Carli Meyer & Taylor Helmes • Season 1 • Episode 8

On this special 1 hour episode, Carli and Taylor dive into research on Ketamine and it's use for treating depression. Using her Bachelor's degree in Public Health and Disease Prevention, Carli fell into the research and her brain got a work out.
Katerina Bails, Kat, has been suffering from depression for a while now, but since the start of the pandemic, her symptoms had gotten to the point where she would lie on her bedroom floor for hours. Fastforward 2 months and 6 Ketamine infusion treatments later, Kat is back to feeling like her colorful, smiley self.

So, why haven't we heard more about these kinds of treatments for depression? We discuss that and more, including asking Kat some of our questions that only she can answer!
