Suicidal ideation, in simple terms, means suicidal thoughts or thinking about taking your own life. These suicidal thoughts are common for people suffering depression or undergoing significant stress, but it is important to note that most people that experience suicidal thoughts do not take their own life (although they may still attempt to). This is why understanding suicidal ideation and proper treatment is essential.

The use of ketamine for depression treatment typically involves lower doses than those used for anesthesia. It is administered intravenously or intramuscularly under medical supervision. Ketamine works on the glutamate system in the brain, leading to increased synaptic plasticity and the release of certain neurotransmitters that are believed to play a role in mood regulation.
