Ketamine
Overview
Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic commonly used in medicine for anesthesia and pain management. Recreationally, it is known for producing dissociation, altered perception, dream-like thinking and, at higher doses, the "K-hole"—an intensely immersive dissociative state.
Compared to PCP analogues, ketamine generally has a shorter duration and a more sedating, less stimulating character.

My Review
Overall Experience
When I first tried Ketamine I loved it and would do it every week, it was my intro to real dissociation and I loved it, but with time it got pretty boring and bland by itself, and my tolerance was getting bigger and bigger and boom I go around 3 months without ketamine, I do a line thats around 80mg and it feels like a regular line, then I do another one an hour later and feel nothing. Ketamine just disappoints me, and I don't want to do more to get the same effect Because if I do then I'll destroy my bladder - And that is why I am sticking to PCP analogues from now on. Although, I would occasionally do some ketamine if I mix it with a stimulant.
What I Enjoyed
- Deep dissociation.
- Dream-like mental state.
- Great when combined with stimulants.
- Short duration.
What I Didn't Enjoy
- Tolerance builds extremely quickly.
- Tolerance lasts for months.
- Too sedating by itself.
- Bladder discomfort after repeated use.
Would I Use It Again?
Yes
