Cool. Who's your dentist?

Kidding aside, I find that when I use pot, the heavier the dissociation, the better I feel in the oncoming days. I have had times where I feel like my consciousness has completely died, yet my soul is still present. I feel like I have completely disconnected from my body or that my arms and legs have somehow become 'switched'. I also have preceptions that time has stopped (or gone in reverse) or that my brain has imploded into a black hole and then swiftly reversed out the other side into a star.

There is something to be said for 'out of body' experiences. This can be induced by things like psilocybin and/or near death experiences. The latter can produce lasting improvements to mental health.

Before his death, my grandfather was battling a deep depression lasting several years. Treatments were having little effect. He went in for surgery and came out 'in remission'. Although, unfortunately, he died in the ensuing months. I'm not sure what the anesthetic was, but apparently they knew about case reports of some anesthetics' ability to improve depression. This was back in the 90's and I remember my mother telling me at the time that 'sometimes the anesthetics can lift people out of deep depressions'.

I think there is some evidence too that Propofol can have positive effects on depression in some circumstances.
