I have been on Sprivato for 2 months. Suicidal thoughts went away quickly and I’m finally seeing so improvement with depression. I’m lucky that Anthem BC BS covers it fairly well.
My husband has been fighting severe depression for almost two years Nothing works. We have started the ketamine treatments until we can get into soda a to.

I've been med resistant for past 5 years. Tried a lot of different combos. Even tried electroshock therapy. I'm restarting sprivato next week with the new meds they put me on. My Dr is hopeful and I'm… read more
Major depression disorder
You could be resistant to antidepressants. The next step is usually ECT electric shock therapy.
I'm very depressed and the medication doesn't seem to be working
