I wouldn't even know where to get it, and I don't want to get caught and go to jail, due to our stupid drug laws. :(

it's a schedule 3 drug, so a misdemeanor. i don't think you'd get any jail time if you got caught (assuming you're a first time offender in CA). if you're that desperate and you've read up on it and consider it a viable escape from that hell i know too well, give it a shot. (i have not used it). shame i had to make a new account to speak freely about this.

  No..in fact hell no. Ketamine is schedule 1 or 2 I believe everywhere in the US, so that is definitely a felony.

    It's Schedule III: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketamine#Legal_status https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketamine#Legal_status "Ketamine is a "core" medicine in the World Health Organization's Essential Drugs List, a list of minimum medical needs for a basic healthcare system."

        Well, that's wrong. "Schedule III drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence. Schedule III drugs abuse potential is less than Schedule I and Schedule II drugs but more than Schedule IV. Some examples of Schedule III drugs are: Products containing less than 90 milligrams of codeine per dosage unit (Tylenol with codeine), ketamine, anabolic steroids, testosterone" http://www.dea.gov/druginfo/ds.shtml http://www.dea.gov/druginfo/ds.shtml https://www.erowid.org/ask/ask.php?ID=2972 https://www.erowid.org/ask/ask.php?ID=2972

        Ok fair enough and a great link...but here is the twist to this. That page describes Xanax as a schedule 4, and yet I have been charged not once but twice with felony possession of Alprazolam and was adjudicated guilty both times, so perhaps we are both correct in this case, and that yes its a schedule 3 but its also a felony.
