Suggest Treatment For Chronic Depression And Anxiety

I have dealt with depression, anxiety since childhood. I am so tired because since I entered my 60s it has been difficult to find a medication that really works. I am so tired of the struggle and trying to pretend that I am okay. I have heard of those who have had success with ketamine and magic mushroom. I am really looking for a reputable well managed clinic that would be willing to try to help me with the ketamine treatments. This is the first time I have reached the point of having suicidal thoughts.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Anxiety disorder is a disorder and therefore usually medicinal treatment is not advised. But in your case, the anxiety and depression is chronic and has a history of many years. In any case, anxiety disorder is always treated with a combination of medicines, psychotherapy, relaxation and meditation. After learning to manage, the medicines are slowly withdrawn on a phased manner.
