Methods and compositions are disclosed for rapidly relieving symptoms in subjects with depressive, stressor and substance abuse conditions, e.g., major depression, treatment-resistant depression, post-partum depression, bipolar depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorders, negative and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia, as well as for slowing progression of mild cognitive impairment and dementia, using an intermittent dosing regimen of memantine or amantadine or a structural analogue or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of memantine or amantadine (optionally no more frequently than every 2 days) at a dose sufficient to activate Set A brain structures, in combination with a second drug at a dose which activates Set B brain structures but which does not appreciably evoke brain activity linked to hallucinogenic and other psychotomimetic perceptions. In some instances the second drug is either 1) a low dose psilocybin or low dose of other psychedelic and stimulant molecules capable of activating Set B of brain structures which is administered at a dose low enough such that it does not appreciably evoke brain activity linked to hallucinogenic and other psychotomimetic perceptions, or is 2) mianserin (S isomer, R isomer, or a racemate comprising both isomers or structural analog or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) or another standard of care antidepressant capable of activating Set B brain structures, or 3) lumateperone or another antipsychotic capable of activating Set B brain structures.

A combination therapy for use in treatment of substance abuse disorders, including alcohol use disorder (AUD) and opioid use disorder (OUD), includes both mitragynine (MG) and naltrexone (NTX). NTX is understood to be a mu opioid antagonist that is expected to block MG's analgesic effects. However, combining MG and NTX therefore results in a unique, unexpected, and beneficial treatment that decreases alcohol self-administration to a greater extent than either alone.
