Yooohooooo! I'd like to ask all you ketamine users out there (from one timers to regular K-ers) about reasons for taking ketamine at any given time.
For example, do you take it to come down or relax? to compliment other drugs? to have a shag? to more fully enjoy a tin of ravioli? :eek2: ..whatever?
I'm gathering these reasons to form part of a questionnare for a study in my PhD, which is on ketamine.
I'd also like to hear if anyone has had any problems which they associate with ketamine use...
:nervous:
oh yes and ALSO... if anyone fancies taking part as a participant in one of my studies just get in touch fleur@uel.ac.uk
ta!xxx

I've used it before but I didnt like the feeling that I was outside of my body. I felt physically detached from myself. I may try it again but it would have to be in a calm, safe environment.
Times after that did it on the pill comedowns, its cheap too.
I quite liked it but I could always leave it if I wanted to, I never really loved it as such. When I was doing base every day it was nice of an evening to have a couple of bumps and then float round the neighborhood for a evening stroll.
I knew an importer too, he had a licence and everything, but then he got skanked and doesnt do it anymore, not since China clamped down, you cant get the salt from there anymore.
Its preaty rare in London now a days really, only about in the sqwat parties, and then its virtualy always in liquid form from India.
If it was about I'd do it again, I've not seen it for over a year though.
Whats the focus of you paper, effects, use patterns, addiction?
I'm focusing on use-patterns and effects for different individuals, though i suspect that this might be connected with the likelihood of dependency.
Hey! I know! why don't you come along and find out! :yes:
thanks to others who have already contributed. keep em coming!
My current study takes about an hour here at the University of East London in Stratford, and involves short questionnaires on drug use history, and on mood, and a simple physiological measure of eye-blink response.
I can give you 5 pounds to cover your travel expenses. And all the data is kept strictly confidential.
So that's about it. if you'd like to come, or you know anyone else who might, you could e-mail me (fleur@uel.ac.uk) or phone (0208 249 095). And that'd be GREAT!
it'd be interesting o talk more to people about use in England too as i've been in Spain for 4 years where i think K has a different reputation and user-groups.
vinylvicky does drugs..... im shocked!
seriously had no idea... im so dense! :rolleyes:
Yeah, this is another thing that I'm interested in looking at .... (ah! there are too many) drug combination effects :
are people using K primarily in conjunction with other drugs? and which ones and for what effects?
I heard from one participant of recurring depression after using and then found this participant took SSRIs. This is strange as K has been found to have some anti-depressant effects in clinical cases. It could be that what's already zooming round the bloodstream could alter experience drastically...
Anyone else had a similar experience?
me not do drugs...never heard of that before!
yeah it does!!! especially when your doing over stuff at the same time
Soorrry. This is complete bollocks.
if you'd be interested in participating, you can call me on 0208 223 4556/4951 or mail fleur@uel.ac.uk
.. im just a ditz
I've also used it with acid a couple of times, thats just wierd, even in preaty small doses.
It goes quite well with MDMA too, but you do loose the empathy feeling and just feel out of it really.
I have had it with 2c-t-7, but seeing as that chemical did nothing for me I guess you could say that wasnt really a combo as such.
:yes: And with mushrooms
