Help Lauren Access Life-Saving Ketamine Infusions for PTSD & Depression

My name is Lauren Halyard, and I’m reaching out with deep vulnerability and hope.

I live with treatment-resistant depression and PTSD after surviving sexual assault in 2019. For years, I’ve tried countless forms of therapy, medications, and healing modalities. Some have helped temporarily, but the trauma and depression always return. Every day is a fight to live my daily life.

After extensive consultation with my doctor and therapist, I’ve found a promising treatment: ketamine infusions. These infusions have been shown to offer rapid relief for people like me when traditional treatments fail. For many survivors of trauma, ketamine provides not just relief, but a way back to themselves.

Unfortunately, these infusions are not covered by insurance and can cost hundreds of dollars per session. I’ve already used much of my savings this year due to an 8-day inpatient hospital stay. I simply can’t afford to continue on my own.

I'm finally making this because of my TikTok followers' support.

Your support will go directly toward covering the cost of my ketamine infusion treatments, transportation to and from the clinic, and integration therapy to help process the emotional experiences that arise from treatment.

Every dollar brings me closer to stability, healing, and hope.

Even if you can’t donate, sharing this means the world. Thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing with me.

With love and gratitude,

Lauren
