Signs you might be struggling with SAD:
• Oversleeping or feeling constantly tired
• Craving carbs and sugar
• Increased sadness or irritability
• Loss of motivation
• Withdrawing from social activities

💡 Lifestyle tools like morning light, movement, and nutrition can help, but for many, relief takes time.

At Keta Medical Center, we offer another path forward.

Ketamine therapy has been shown to rapidly improve mood and reduce depressive symptoms, helping your brain reconnect, reset, and recover.

⭐ A Major Step Forward in Treatment-Resistant Depression

A 6-month mirror-image study found that patients with treatment-resistant depression, who received IV or intranasal ketamine/esketamine, experienced an 84% decrease in ED visits related to suicidal ideation and a 63% overall drop in suicidality-associated emergency visits, according to Psychiatrist.com

What does this mean for you?
✔ Ketamine is not just easing depression; it significantly reduces crisis-level symptoms and the need for emergency care.
✔ When other treatments have failed, ketamine offers a rapid, research-backed option for relief and stabilization.
✔ Healing can begin now, not later.

At Keta Medical Center, we deliver precision-guided ketamine therapies in a safe, physician-supervised environment, designed for individuals who have not found relief elsewhere. ✨ Discover more and take the first step: www.ketamc.com

1️⃣ Myth: It's a "party drug" or "horse tranquilizer."
✔️ Truth: Ketamine has been used safely in medicine for decades as an FDA-approved anesthetic. In mental health treatment, it’s given in controlled, therapeutic doses under physician supervision. It is nothing like recreational use or high-dose veterinary applications.

2️⃣ Myth: It's addictive.
✔️ Truth: When administered in a medical setting at therapeutic doses, ketamine has a very different risk profile than recreational use. Patients at Keta MC are carefully screened, monitored, and supported throughout treatment.

3️⃣ Myth: It's a one-time fix.
✔️ Truth: While some people feel relief quickly, ketamine therapy works best as a structured treatment series with guidance and integration over time. It’s a process, not a single session.

4️⃣ Myth: It's illegal.
✔️ Truth: Ketamine is an FDA-approved medication. Its use for mental health is legal when provided by licensed clinicians in a medical environment.

5️⃣ Myth: It's unsafe.
✔️ Truth: Ketamine therapy is considered safe when administered by trained medical professionals who monitor patients before, during, and after treatment.

✨ Bottom line: Ketamine therapy looks nothing like the myths. In a proper medical setting, it can be safe, structured, and a highly supervised treatment option for people who haven’t found relief elsewhere.

For many living with depression, traditional antidepressants take weeks to work, if they work at all. SPRAVATO® (esketamine) offers a new path forward.

FDA-approved for Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) with suicidal thoughts, SPRAVATO® is a nasal spray form of ketamine that works differently than typical antidepressants.

Instead of targeting serotonin, it acts on the glutamate system, helping the brain create new neural connections that improve mood, clarity, and motivation.

Here’s what makes SPRAVATO® unique: 👇
💨 Rapid Relief: Many patients feel noticeable improvement within hours to days.
🧠 Rewires the Brain: Promotes neuroplasticity and helps restore healthy brain communication.
⚖️ Better Stability: Enhances the effects of ongoing oral antidepressants.
🌿 Clinically Supervised: Administered in a calm, physician-led environment for safety and comfort.
💬 Lasting Impact: Patients often report restored motivation, better focus, and renewed hope.

At Keta Medical Center, our certified providers deliver SPRAVATO® therapy with care and precision, helping you achieve sustainable, science-backed relief when other treatments haven’t worked.

✨ Relief can’t wait. Schedule your free consultation today: www.ketamc.com

*Keta Medical Center is a medical practice that treats depression and other mood disorders, including with Spravato nasal spray which is approved by the FDA for treatment resistant depression.

✔ PTSD: Reduces flashbacks and helps the brain safely reprocess trauma.
✔ OCD & Alcohol Addiction: Interrupts repetitive thought loops and reduces cravings by rewiring reward circuits.
✔ Bipolar Depression: Relieves low moods while promoting long-term mood stability.
✔ Postpartum Depression: Restores energy and connection for new mothers.
✔ Palliative Care: Provides comfort, emotional ease, and relief from end-of-life distress.

New research shows something many women have felt for years: women may carry a higher genetic risk for depression than men.

According to a large-scale study highlighted by The Guardian, researchers identified more female-specific genetic factors linked to major depression, helping explain why so many women experience symptoms that are often misunderstood or dismissed.

Here’s what matters most:
🧬 Genetics can increase vulnerability, but they do not determine your outcome.
🌿 Environment, trauma, hormones, and life stressors all play significant roles in shaping our mental health.
💙 With compassionate, individualized care, healing is possible.

At Keta Medical Center, we stay rooted in the latest science so we can understand you, not just the diagnosis. Women deserve mental health care that honors their biology, their experiences, and their unique path to healing.

If you’ve ever wondered why traditional treatments didn’t fully help, this research may offer clarity and remind you that you’re not alone.

✨ You deserve care that sees the complete picture of who you are.

When you’ve tried everything from therapy to medication and mindfulness, and still feel weighed down, it’s easy to wonder if healing is even possible.

There is hope in new science. 🌿

At Keta Medical Center, we use research-backed ketamine therapy to help the brain heal in a different way, not by numbing emotions; it works by restoring the pathways that help you feel again.

Ketamine works on the brain’s glutamate system, a powerful network tied to mood, memory, and resilience. In low, physician-guided doses, it helps “reset” the brain’s response to stress and depression.

What are the results? Many patients describe feeling lighter, calmer, and more connected, much faster than they would have with traditional treatments.

You deserve this type of care. ✨ Schedule your free consultation today. → www.ketamc.com

On the surface, everything looks fine. You keep your commitments, meet deadlines, smile through conversations, and force yourself to attend social events.

Behind the façade, life feels empty and thoroughly exhausting. You may have even accepted, with a heavy heart, that this is just how you are.

This quiet struggle is often called high-functioning depression. It’s not a medical term, but it’s used to describe a form of persistent, low-grade depression. It quietly undermines your quality of life even as you appear to be managing just fine on the outside.

Signs you might be struggling with high-functioning depression:
◾ Constant fatigue, no matter how much you rest
◾ Overworking or overachieving to avoid difficult emotions
◾ Feeling detached from your life, like you’re just going through the motions
◾ Irritability, perfectionism, or relentless self-criticism
◾ Trouble sleeping or waking up with feelings of exhaustion
◾ A vague sense of unease you can’t quite name
