It is harsh, but where's the fun in the comment section of an HN post on psychology without a little hyperbole?

My disdain comes from seeing people I'm close to repeatedly pushed towards those treatments by practitioners who, when asked to provide references supporting their endorsement supply anecdotes about past or current patients rather than DOIs. There are specific TMS protocols that appear to have some growing amount of evidence behind them, but ketamine still seems to be a wildly variable cash grab that requires further data before anything can be said about its efficacy.
