Karmic Cares provides safety services at events, including many music events. Ketamine (and Ivermectin) is NOT a harmless substance and there appears to be a lot of misinformation and growing myths about its use in treatment of addition and depression.
We made this meme to help raise awareness of the dangers of “K” and its growing damage to many alternative health and spiritual communities.
The short version is this…
1) It has not been shown to help depression unless COMBINED with (CBT) therapy with a provider specifically trained in the combined technique.
2) It is ADDICTIVE with users needing larger and larger doses and using it increasingly frequently, often to the point that it impacts daily routines/life. Rarely does it help other addictions, and those already prone to substance abuse are the most likely to become psychologically dependent on Ketamine, often very quickly…
3) It can lead to respiratory arrest (followed by cardiac arrest than death). This risk is greatly increased when combined with alcohol and/or nitrous oxide.
Please educate yourself about the dangers of Ketamine (or Ivermectin for COVID) and don’t blindly believe what you read online or are told at parties.
We firmly believe “K” is dangerous and should be seen and treated similar to opiate use and not tolerated by event organizers. It is time for us to speak up and not let this become the next crisis in our communities.
TLDR; Don’t do horse drugs!
