About Me

Hello.  My name is Susan.  Please understand this blog is a work in progress.  I suppose it always will be.  I have treatment resistant depression and anxiety disorder, but that isn’t who I am.

I live in Virginia.  I have a passion for writing and photography.  I also love sewing and crafting.  I basically love the arts.  I am at my best when I am creating.  I am married and have one child.  My husband and son are my major support system; without Geoffrey and Matthew my life would be empty.  I enjoy and thrive on learning new things.   It makes me feel I have a purpose in life when I am helping others.  My intentions with this blog is to reach out to others with clinical depression and turn on a light of  hope.  Ketamine is my life preserver and it may possibly be yours too.

My desire is to educate both the general public as well as physicians and nurse practitioners on the use of Ketamine for treatment resistant depression.  I am writing from my own experiences.  I get Ketamine shots every two weeks and have been for close to two years now.  It has thoroughly changed my life.

I was diagnosed with clinical depression and generalized anxiety disorder at the age of 18.  I spent nearly 30 years after that searching for treatment to pull me from the depths of suicidal depression, daily panic attacks, insomnia and agoraphobia without success and plenty of horror stories.  My light was out and my expectations that my life would improve didn’t exist when I discovered Ketamine Infusions;  it is a form of drug therapy for treatment resistant depression.  

This blog is my journey.  I pray that others suffering will somehow find their way to my website so I can introduce them to the possibilities of Ketamine.  

I traveled to a clinic in New Jersey and started out with six Ketamine Infusions over a two week period.  I was fortunate enough to be told about Dr. Charles Moseley from Charlottesville, Va.   I was excited because I live an hour from his office.  I was told Dr. Moseley was interested in Ketamine and was willing to start administering intramuscular Ketamine shots.  I have been working with Dr. Moseley since April of 2015.  I began Ketamine shots shortly upon my return from Ketamine Treatment Center of Princeton in New Jersey.   Dr. Steven Levine is a valuable asset for me.  I highly recommend both of these doctors if you reside in their areas.  

I will also share my poetry and images soon.  Please feel free to comment or email me.
