Aug. 8, 2024 – Prof Celia Morgan, who is leading the trial, said the initial stages had found participants stayed away from alcohol for longer.
She said: “We think that ketamine helps to catalyse the psychological therapy, partly because of the unique subjective effects that you get from the drug. People find themselves having these quite weird experiences, often having out-of-body experiences, so they look at life from a different perspective, and that is very useful.”
One participant, Alex, said it had helped him stay sober following 20 years of daily drinking.
He said: “I think life-changing is a good way to describe it. [I think] ‘wasn’t that strange that I was ever that kind of entwined with alcohol’ – my perspective on who I was and what I was controlled by, this … need to drink, that’s gone.”
