2. Why People Use It

People often use ketamine because they are looking for a short-term feeling of:

●     Escaping: Feeling disconnected, relaxed, or floating.

●     Feeling Good: A quick feeling of happiness or euphoria.

●     Numbness: Not feeling pain or discomfort.

Immediate Effects (The High)

●     Confusion: You might feel dizzy, confused, or struggle to walk and talk clearly.

●     Hallucinations: Things may look or sound strange.

●     Memory Blanks: You might forget things easily (short-term memory loss).

●     The K-Hole: Taking too much can cause a scary state where you feel totally detached and cannot move or speak. This means you can't protect yourself from accidents.
