Special K fights Depression.

[swestrup]

An interesting tidbit: It seems that ketamine, a drug known by ravers as 'Special K' is not only a hallucinogen (as well as a horse tranquilizer) but seems to reset the part of the brain responsible for causing depression. This has pharmacopsychologists hopeful that they'll be able to design a compound with the same effect, but without the various 'fun' aspects of the drug.

Without the fun aspects of the drug? You would think fun would be the ultimate cure for depression... in some circles.


Sheesh.

For a moment there I thought you were talking about the cereal...

I have to admit that was deliberate.
