If you’ve been struggling to find relief, Northeast Health Services is here to help with our innovative Spravato® treatment services. Call 508.794.8711 to learn more about the benefits of Spravato® for those diagnosed with TRD.

Understanding Treatment-Resistant Depression

Treatment-resistant depression is a form of major depressive disorder (MDD) that does not respond adequately to traditional treatments, such as antidepressant medications and therapy. This can leave individuals feeling hopeless and trapped in their condition. However, advancements in mental health treatment are providing new hope for those with TRD.

Depression treatment encompasses various therapeutic modalities and medications designed to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. At Northeast Health Services, we recognize the unique challenges faced by individuals with TRD and offer specialized treatments like Spravato® to address these needs.

Recognizing Symptoms of Treatment-Resistant Depression

Treatment-resistant depression can be challenging to identify, as it presents similar symptoms to MDD. However, individuals with TRD typically experience prolonged periods of depression that do not improve with standard treatments. Some common symptoms of TRD include:

• Persistent feelings of sadness and hopelessness
• Loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities
• Changes in appetite and sleep patterns
• Difficulty concentrating and making decisions

If you or a loved one is experiencing these symptoms despite undergoing treatment for depression, it may be time to explore alternative options like Spravato®.

Experiencing the Benefits of Spravato® Treatment Services

Spravato®, also known as esketamine, is a groundbreaking medication approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating TRD. It works differently from traditional antidepressants, targeting the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the brain to provide rapid relief from depressive symptoms. Here are some of the critical benefits of Spravato®:

• Rapid symptom relief – Unlike traditional antidepressants, which can take weeks or months to show effects, Spravato® has been clinically proven to provide relief within hours to days. This rapid response can be life-changing, especially for those facing severe depressive episodes that disrupt daily functioning and quality of life.
• Enhanced efficacy – For individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), standard antidepressants often fail, leaving them feeling hopeless and trapped. Spravato® offers a new mechanism that targets different brain pathways, providing a promising alternative for those who haven’t succeeded with other medications. This innovative approach can be a game-changer for patients who have run out of options.
• Improved quality of life – By alleviating the debilitating symptoms of depression, Spravato® can significantly improve overall quality of life. Patients often report better sleep, increased energy, and a renewed ability to engage in daily activities and relationships that were once difficult. This improvement can lead to a more fulfilling life, helping individuals reintegrate into their communities.
• Inclusive care – We are committed to making mental health care accessible to everyone, acknowledging that each person’s needs are unique. Our clinics accept various insurance plans to ease patients’ financial burdens. We also offer in-person visits and convenient telehealth options, ensuring you receive care that fits your lifestyle. Your mental health matters, and we are here to support you on your journey to wellness.
