If you use ketamine, at low doses, it can make you:
Feel light headed, a little bit like when a person has started to get drunk
Feel no pain, which can lead to injuries
Feel more friendly
Feel sick and throw up
Lose your balance and make you unsteady on your feet
Feel paranoid and scared
At high doses it can make you:
Feel very paranoid and scared
Become depressed
See and hear things that aren’t there (Hallucinations)
Pass out
Choke on their own vomit (sick)
The difference between a low and high dose can be very small. It is virtually impossible to tell the strength and the dose just by looking at it. It is a risk each time a person uses.
The experience is described as being in a K hole. The user often knows what is going on around them, they just don’t/can’t move very well no matter how hard they try.
Ketamine is a disassociative anaesthetic that has been used by doctors and vets to treat animals.
It comes as a coarse (rough) white powder, tablet
or an injectable clear liquid. It is can be snorted, swallowed and injected.
Ketamine is a psychologically addictive drug.
It is a class C drug.
A disassociative anaesthetic makes the user feel as though their body and mind are in separate places. Users say it is like having an out of body experience.
Users can find it difficult to move. If someone attacks them or does something to them that they don’t like they are powerless to stop it.
Ketamine is sometimes sold to people and they think they have bought an E. At high doses ketamine can cause a person to pass out. This can make them a very easy target. You never know what you have bought until you have taken it.
