By Hannah King in Ukraine:
In a private clinic on the top floor of a dreary children’s hospital in Northern Kyiv, 31-year-old Taras lies with a needle in his arm, delivering a clear fluid into his veins, as a therapist armed with paper and pen, talks to him in the softest of tones.
Taras is a children’s music teacher. He went to fight on the frontline, but after two weeks, he had a panic attack and had to return home.
The drug he is being given is not new and it is not illegal when given medically, but it is not traditionally used to treat mental health.
