In the world of tech titans, few know the pressures of the spotlight like Elon Musk. Recently, Musk opened up about his personal struggle with depression and his choice to use an unconventional treatment—ketamine. Once known as an anesthetic or party drug, ketamine is now emerging as a powerful mental health tool.
This episode explores the science, success stories, and big questions around ketamine therapy. Joining me again on the podcast is Dr. Sherry Sadighim, a clinical psychologist, who runs a private practice in Brooklyn, specializing in adult psychotherapy and psychological assessment. Together, we discuss ketamine’s history, neurobiology, and its potential as a future treatment for depression.
