I thought about this treatment method in the past. In a book which I have read a patient of a mental health hospital asks for medically induced coma. Jordan Peterson flow to Russia for this experimental treatment. The Russian doctors induced a medically coma for some days in order to help Jordan with the detox of benzodiazepines. He had horrible withdrawal symptoms.
After my both psychosis I had 6-12 months very extreme psychosomatic pain. I also had the wish for a medically induced coma. I told noone about it because this treatment method is probably not working/insane. The mortality rate seems to be high (I just read that in the article) I would not mind that....
I think there are several problems with it. An induced coma can cause depression and other mental problems I think. Moreover I had this pain for almost a year I think being one year in a coma damages your body a lot.
But it would be really cool if this could be easily done. I am bipolar with repeating depressive episodes. Just inducing a coma during the depressive episodes sounds attractive. But considering this seriously is probably absolutely nonsense and I know that. I think it also was not helpful for Jordan Peterson.
It is a pity this is not working.
I explicitly don't recommend this treatment method. As I said it would probably cause severe damage. It was just a naive thought which I had during a severe depressive episode. I am not an expert and I don't know anything about this method. There are probably god reasons why this method is not used. I would recommend to talk with professionals about such treatment methods instead of listening to a random uninformed person like me.
Have you ever thought about a medical induced coma by a doctor? Someone in my family had something like that (due to somatic reasons). The person developed major depression afterwards.
