I had such a good experience with Better U! I feel like they struck a really good balance between a hands-on and hands-off approach; they were there to help whenever I needed, but the process was set up to allow me to feel in control and able to take things at my own pace. The self-guided program is very helpful to keep the process focused and helpful. I particularly appreciate the very thoughtfully-curated playlists that accompany sessions.

Better U is my rescue float in a sea of depression.
I have been with BetterU for about six months or more. I started on Joyous and winter seasonal depression hit, and on top of my clinical depression, their minimal dosing wasn’t covering my symptoms.
I have as a diagnosis list, clinical depression, OCD, ADD, PTSD, Severe Tourette’s, and Panic Attack Disorder with generalized anxiety.
I have always been extremely irritable and moody. It was destroying my family life, and any relationships I had.
I couldn’t make friends let alone maintain any friendships. I was a nasty person who was always sad and emotional.
I was obese and lacked motivation to work out, my OCD was so bad I was constantly on my hands and knees scrubbing dog hair out of every corner of the floor, my PTSD triggers were constant and my Tourette tics were daily and severe, impacting every part of my life negatively.
The first day I knew that there was a formula difference between Better U and their competitor that I mentioned above. Their formula is stronger, denser and felt more substantial. It was almost as if their competitor had watered down their medication formula. It wasn’t just an increased dose - the formula is honestly different. It also made an enormous difference.
Within a couple months I began to be a happier person, I began to get back the motivation that I lacked and began exercising. My moods improved, my sadness dwindled, and my emotional ‘neuron rages’ that I experienced on a multi- daily basis with my conditions dwindled to zero.
I regained what I think is about 80% control
over my brain for the first time in my life, and I am 38 years old.
The greatest thing about BetterU is how personal they are. It’s not bots like all their competitors, someone texts you back, even after hours and weekends. They make it personal and that makes all the difference.
They have classes, they have lessons, they provide playlists and directional guides so you are never lost in the process.
They send texts to ask how you are doing. They care about your wellbeing.
I dare say they have come to know me a little bit and for me, having people know me is terrifying because I’ve never been good at maintaining relationships as I’ve said. But even that has changed a bit.
I’ve gone from 278lb to 215. I have bad days, as anyone does, but even my bad days aren’t anywhere as near as bad as they were before I started with BetterU.
They offer a financing plan with denifits loan app which I take advantage of, using the three month refill plan at a discounted rate.
You are able to have several of these loans out at once. I am able to make large payments to make sure I can continue to have access to my medication.
It took a few months after my first customary few months but I became accumulated to the process, the people involved and how the program worked.
It has changed my life, taking control of my mental health has allowed me the liberty to take control of my physical health as well.
My conditions are genetic and my personal psychiatrist outside the program has told me I am on the best medication available for me, and the treatment will be long term due to the severity of my symptoms and comorbities but, despite being on disability, I made the decision that my mental health takes all priority. I put aside my wants and decided to stay with Better U, because new consoles or electronics or bird feeders, those are not as important as my life.
I went from unstable and ready to end my life, to ready to push myself to a better me and renew my life.
I’m really quite pleased with Better U. They have been my lifesaver, literally.

Chronic illness and depression almost took my life, but Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy saved it.
In 2020 I was stricken with Guillian-Barre Syndrome twice 8 months apart. In 2021 I was diagnosed with an extremely rare neurological autoimmune condition, Stiff Person Syndrome. My physical and mental health tanked and my life simply fell apart. I lost my marriage, my livelihood, my home, and my children for a time. I almost lost my life and even made an attempt to take it. I was diagnosed with Complex PDST, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. I was totally lost and couldn't find an way out of. Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy has changed my life so completely I don't even recognize the person I was at my lowest point. Today my physical health is pretty stable, my mental health is stable, I'm working again, I have my kids back, and I'm living life with optimism and gratitude again. Better U has helped me achieve a view of what life with this disease can look like better than I could have ever imagined. I cannot recommend this program enough to anyone who is deeply struggling with PTSD, anxiety, or treatment resistant depression. If you've been looking for hope and change, to find yourself again, this program is for you.

Helps where other treatment options have failed
I have been undergoing ketamine therapy through Better U since November 2024 and it has been a transformative experience. I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety for 20+ years and the sessions combined with the provided support have helped in ways that traditional medicine and therapy haven’t. The experience with Better U has been outstanding. Whether it was the initial on boarding, treatment preparation, continuing integration sessions or just interacting with customer support - Better U has always delivered an excellent experience for me as a patient. I would recommend to anyone that has struggled with anxiety/depression like me or anyone that is just looking to maintain their mental health.

From my first call to every follow-up…
From my first call to every follow-up since, Better U has made me feel like I really matter. The ketamine therapy has rapidly accellerated my healing and change my perspective on my childhood trauma and their integration therapists they provide that make the difference. I’ve never felt more seen in a healthcare setting.
