Reliable mental health information should help you feel more informed, not more overwhelmed.
At Claritiv Health, we have selected clear, trustworthy resources from national health agencies, the FDA, and peer-reviewed medical research. These materials can help you better understand common mental health conditions, treatment options, and when to seek support.
Depression can affect mood, energy, concentration, sleep, relationships, and daily life. The National Institute of Mental Health explains common symptoms, treatment options, and ways to find help.
Anxiety disorders involve more than occasional stress or worry. Symptoms may continue over time and interfere with work, relationships, or everyday activities.
PTSD can develop after a traumatic experience and may affect sleep, concentration, relationships, emotional well-being, and a person’s sense of safety.
OCD may involve recurring unwanted thoughts, repetitive behaviors, or both. These symptoms can cause distress and interfere with daily responsibilities.
Bipolar disorder can involve significant changes in mood, energy, activity, and concentration. It is more complex than ordinary emotional ups and downs and requires an individual clinical evaluation.
Psychotherapy, also known as Talk Therapy, may use structured approaches to help people understand thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and difficult experiences. The approach used depends on the person’s needs and goals.
Researchers have studied ketamine as a possible option for some people with depression, including treatment-resistant depression. Ketamine is FDA-approved as an anesthetic. Its use for mental health conditions is off-label.
This peer-reviewed review discusses clinical research involving ketamine and depression. Some sections are written for medical and scientific readers.
SPRAVATO® is an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray for treatment-resistant depression in adults. It is distinct from ketamine.
Patients self-administer SPRAVATO® under clinical supervision in a certified healthcare setting. The FDA prescribing information explains approved uses, monitoring requirements, safety warnings, and treatment restrictions.
