It can be quite expensive, but after 20 different antidepressants and antipsychotics, I've considered it. My latest medications were $1738/m and $1800/m respectively. That's like $60 per pill that I need to take daily. I'm in a fortunate position with amazing health insurance that will cover it.

Ketamine is $1200 every 3 months, includes therapy, and has cheaper daily nasal spray to maintain the treatment.

Also, recreational Ketamine is different. There's Ketamine (recreational) and S-Ketamine (therapeutic). It does absolutely give you psychedelic effects, but it wouldn't be as fun of a thing to take in your spare time as Ketamine.
