Southern Ketamine and Wellness - Auburn

The staff are amazing, professional, responsive, caring, kind, knowledgeable and I just love walking in that door knowing I will feel wanted and welcomed. It feels like home. So…. The ketamine infusions themselves... I keep getting better and better. At first it was just I actually spend time in the living areas and not shut down in my room. Then I started spontaneously brushing my teeth, not have to force myself to do so. Soon spontaneously empty the dishwasher - see it, actually notice it, not staring blankly past it, and just do it. Then sweeping the kitchen…. Like it’s so natural and not “oh my Dear Lord I HAVE TO drag this broom around - and all I COULD do is think about sweeping. Now I’m back to being social or singing as the primary activity and the broom is just habit. This time it’s washing counters. Last month it was cleaning the fridge. No more DRAGGING my feet and shuffling yo the kitchen because I have to. It just spontaneously happens, with a smile, a laugh, or a song. The technical term is behavior activation. It happens naturally when not depressed. When depressed EVERY LITTLE THING is a HUGE DRAINING SLOGGING EXCRUCIATING EFFORT. With each monthly ketamine infusion there is more silent unnoticed (besides me) progress. It’s amazing. The suffering was also silent. As is the healing. ❤️‍🩹 Years of therapy, 6 different anti depressants, still no sleep and no natural behavior activation. Such silent illnesses - PTSD, Depression, Anxiety. I get more and more of myself back every month. I don’t know if I ever would have felt alive in this body or mind again without the Ketamine. The depersonalization gets less and less and my mind and body merge more and more each month. I’m so glad that I found it.

I have had ketamine infusions at several locations. The SKEW office in Auburn/Opelika is my favorite. I am always greeted warmly. The atmosphere is very clean and soothing. Sheilah, the PA, administered my IV painlessly. Needless to say, I was thrilled. If you are considering ketamine treatments, please give SKEW a look. I believe it would be worth your consideration.

Great staff, relaxing atmosphere. If you are on the fence about it i highly recommend it. I just completed my sixth infusion and can tell a huge difference with my PTSD and suicidal thoughts and now I am hearing Kay Ivey aka mema is trying to shut down something that helps mental health patients. I guess it's taking money out of her pocket because it's not supporting big pharma. Just like she did with CBD. Alabama is going backwards as a state. Which I hate because I was born and raised here. Has me thinking about moving to the free state of Florida. Anyhow. This is a great place and care about your mental health. Thank you SKAW. You have my support.and oh yeah the VA will pay for this service also want to thank them.
