255-reddit-1n8xhfc-ifs-ketamine-freeze-blank-no-emotions

“Last 7 months I’ve been stuck in what feels like a constant freeze response — blank mind, no motivation, no emotions emotions or pleasure. It’s like my brain is locked up. (It was triggered by Ketamine) Has anyone here used IFS to get out of freeze/dissociation? Did it help bring back flow, clarity, or access to feelings?”

Cause

r/InternalFamilySystems first-person OP u/DaysiTobias (post 1n8xhfc): constant freeze after street/recreational ketamine (few times from one batch) → blank mind + no emotions/pleasure. OP: doctors “clueless.” Unused IFS+ketamine BOTH (≠ longecity jaiho ketamine 112). Non-Invega.

Duration

~7 months continuous freeze at 5 Sep 2025 posting; ketamine exposure was a few times from one batch

Recovery notes

Still stuck in freeze at posting; asking if IFS helps exit freeze/dissociation. OP follow-ups confirm street ketamine, few times from that batch; no personal improvement claimed. Live Reddit + arctic-shift enrichment 2026-09-13.
