Transforming Lives With Proven At-Home Psychedelic Therapy

Defense mechanisms may be a major contributing factor in treatment-resistant depression, PTSD and other mental health conditions. If your brain is actively trying to not process something it’s near impossible to move past it. Often we are unaware that we are using defensive mechanisms in the first place.
There’s evidence that ketamine therapy inhibits our ability to use defense mechanisms to push away unpleasant thoughts. When defense mechanisms aren’t in the way, clinicians can accomplish a lot more during psychotherapy sessions, especially if they utilize the period shortly after ketamine therapy when neuroplasticity is enhanced. If defense mechanisms have been identified you can possibly use ketamine therapy with psychotherapy to specifically address them in hopes of breaking them down and rewiring the brain so that they aren’t a problem in the future.

Neuroplasticity is the ability of the nervous system to change its activity in response to intrinsic or extrinsic stimuli by reorganizing its structure, functions, or connections. In other words, neuroplasticity refers to how our brains change and adapt to different experiences. Researchers have found that the neuroplasticity process happens in stages and can continue for months after a brain injury, traumatic experience and therapeutic intervention.

Ketamine treatments are effective because of neuroplasticity. The goal of ketamine treatment is to change the negative consequences of neuroplasty that are a result of chemical imbalances, drug use or trauma. Clinical studies show that ketamine can enhance structural neuroplasticity and strengthen synaptic connections. Ketamine therapy has the potential to rewire the brain in a positive way by changing the brain’s circuit functions and prompting the restoration or growth of new synapses.

Early clinical studies are showing promise for the therapy to be used as a treatment for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. It appears that ketamine could enhance the very things that a person with narcissistic personality disorder lacks that leads to the condition. A recent study published in Psychopharmacology showed strong evidence that psychedelic therapy can help people with NPD gain a greater sense of connection to others and improve empathic drive. The state of awe associated with psychedelic therapy is what led to a decrease in maladaptive narcissistic traits.

Disorganized attachment style is believed to be a consequence of childhood trauma or abuse. Perceived fear is the central aspect of its development. The survival of the infant/child depends on the caregivers. The child knows that subconsciously, so he or she seeks safety in the caregivers. A problem arises when the source of safety becomes a source of fear. People with this attachment style often fear intimacy and are afraid to “let others in” while simultaneously desperately crave love and acceptance. These adults expect and are waiting for the rejection, disappointment, and hurt to come. In their perception, it is inevitable. How to self regulate when you have disorganized attachment: 1.Acknowledging that their attachment system is triggered and why
2.Actively choosing to respond in a balanced way
3.Employing self-soothing strategies
4.Resisting repressing your emotions
5.Not allowing emotions to explode in angry outbursts 6.Feeling safe expressing needs and desires to loved ones
7.Trusting others to not hurt or abuse them
8.Trusting in themselves to make healthy choices

Journal prompt ideas:
What am I looking to get from these sessions? What is my goal in my healing journey? What does self-care look like for me? What’s one thing I can do today to take care of myself? What's your first coping mechanism that comes to mind, is it helpful or harmful and why? Do you allow yourself to feel the emotions you need to? Why or why not

The day that you choose to do your medicine is your personal mental health day. Before your session it is best to relax and keep your day mellow. When you wake up with the mindset of “Today I am taking care of myself all day” you are dedicating yourself to healing. Just know that it is okay to cry, move your anger, feel your emotions and let it out. This is your day to feel and heal all that needs to be felt.

A study evaluated therapeutic effects and tolerability of very low dose sublingual ketamine. It was repeatedly administered every 2-3 days or weekly, in 26 out-patients with refractory unipolar or bipolar depression. According to patients' reports, ketamine produced rapid, clear and sustained effects, improving mood level and stability, cognition and sleep in 77% of patients. Remission remained in some patients after stopping ketamine. Thus, ketamine may have broad spectrum effects beyond its antidepressant properties, with rapid onset of action, high efficacy and good tolerability allowing extended treatment as needed.

Boundaries can be thought of as stop signs in your life. Where you put your stop signs and what you consider “crossing the line” will vary based on your beliefs, values, cultural customs, and family traditions. Here are a few things to think about when you’re setting boundaries.
