It seems more people jump on the bandwagon more quickly in psychiatry than in any other profession. All in for the latest magic pill or treatment. I’ve had doctors — reputable ones otherwise — perfectly willing to give me ketamine or esketamine after one brief virtual appointment with no medical history. The same people of course who have freely handed out ADs and antipsychotics and benzos and whatever for years. It’s all good after all. Evidence? Research? Nah.
