I liked the people I worked with: my guide and clinician, the customer help folks & the group guides and participants. I did not like my sessions. I feel like, for the most part, nothing happened. If I had it to do all over again I would have greatly lowered my expectations and tried integration groups much sooner in the program. I would also allow more time. I understood that I just needed an hour for each session. In reality, the prep and journaling afterwards take longer than the actual sessions. I found that I needed at least 3 hours minimum for a session. I do feel like I am in a better place than when I started, but I am not sure how much credit I can give the ketamine. I also got back on birth control, started an anti-anxiety medication, a life event I was dreading has passed and am using an online counselor in addition to my in-person counselor. I do have to say that my habits did change when it came to drinking alcohol. Alcohol used to take up a lot of my bandwidth and now it doesn't and I am very pleased with that change. I am grateful for the opportunity to try something to help my mental health, even if it only helped a little, I am grateful for every piece of the puzzle.

I found that the first two sessions (out of 6) were uneventful because my dose was too low, which seemed kind of like a waste. Also, the cost, while lower than IV ketamine transfusions is still quite expensive. It would be helpful if you could lower the price or have discount programs for people on fixed incomes to prevent the financial barrier that keeps people from finding the medicine. That said, the integration circles and life-time access to them have been instrumental in changing my life! I am so grateful for the circles and have learned new habits and techniques to help me with my depression and anxiety. Thank you for keeping the circles open and not establishing a limit on the amount of times people can attend!!! As far as post-ketamine, I can say that it has caused me to become interested again in self-improvement and spirituality. I can say that I have noticed a reduction in my depression and to a lesser degree, a reduction in the amount of anxiety I experience. I would recommend ketamine to people experiencing treatment resistance (as long as cost were not a barrier).

Today’s session was not as good. I think having to put 6 tablets @ 200mg is way too much to put in your mouth and I didn’t feel a difference from 800 mg session and 1200 mg session. I don’t think it absorbed properly.

My clinician and guide were both great, I was really happy with my experience with both. The reason I gave only 3 stars was that I was never able to reach anywhere close to the dissociative state to really unpack what I wanted to deal with, so I feel like I've kind of missed out on a big piece of the ketamine therapy. That said, my mood has improved dramatically. It's the only med I've tried that has had this kind of effect. I've already purchased a continuing program because I've been so happy with how I feel & even though I'm not getting the full experience, it's been worth it for me.

The clinician and the guide were great. My sessions were uncomfortable except for one which was amazing. I'm still trying to sort out how the uncomfortable sessions were valuable.

I'm not sure if it's the delivery mechanism or low dose tablets, but I experienced only minor effects of the treatment. Perhaps SQ or intranasal would be more effective. I noticed I'm more calm during the day and the peaks of my anxiety have been clipped. But overall not a much as expected for the programs cost.

Customer service is good, had a billing issue corrected very quickly. The guides seem to be up-selling constantly, kind of annoying. The aprn seems to be in a race to get done with you. The medicine loses potency pretty quickly (within weeks) wish it was packaged better for storage. Overall good value, im on the 18 pack round 2, i hope it starts to help me more.

It was a good experience, but I did not get the benefit I sought. It is more my issue than Mindbloom. Mindbloom was easy to work with, and their people were accommodating and professional. I just expected too much. I was looking for something to alleviate my anxiety, and the program gave me more insight into my issue, but it did not give me any relief from it.
