On the whole, I think they made the right choice,” says Richard Friedman, a professor of psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College who was not involved in the decision

right, after the opioid crisis, now comes the ketamine crisis… doctors have shown their ability to encourage addiction, as they get incentives from BigPharma to prescribe drugs… antidrepressants have also been proven to cause suicidal thoughts, well documented on the internet. Depression is widespread as people struggle too much to pay the bills. One must be naive to even think that ketamine will be prescribed when other depression treatments have failed… very naive, in a envrionment where corporations only seek profit optimazitation

People with treatment-resistant depression are 15 times more likely to attempt suicide than people without depression, so a new effective form of treatment could be a literal lifesaver. “The risk is there. On the other hand, the risk of untreated treatment-resistant depression is far greater

The lifesaver argument does not hold any water. Society itself is deeply sick from an hypermaterialist lifestyle… meanwhile the gargantuan plastic pollution is killing the planet by ecocide… what lifesaver? Society needs to embrace different values and the rate of people with depression will go down by 80%. It is the environment the problem. Time to rethink capitalism and end the monetization of life, then we’ll be able to take care of those who really need help.

Obviously BIGPharma is pointless, I am afraid.
