I almost ended up as the murdered half of a murder-suicide due to that. Which is damnable because I've never seen any other treatment have the same effect as esketamine.
I really hope they find some way to solve that, maybe they also need to administer anti-psychotics in that case, I truly don't know. Because the treatment itself is just about as close to turning off depression as anything I've ever seen. Though I understand it may not be that way for everyone, for some, it really helps.
