Florida “After 25 years of struggling with depression, Bryan found hope again.” Living deep in the countryside, Bryan describes himself as a tough, blue-collar outdoorsman… not the type to talk about mental health. But after decades of trying medications that didn’t work, his psychiatrist introduced him to the GeneSight test. With one simple cheek swab, Brian finally found treatment options that made a difference. Today, he says he’s happy, energized, and feels like himself again and he wants others to know there’s a way forward. This story is one patient’s personal experience. Other patients may not have the same experience or outcome. Do not make any changes to your current medications or dosing without consulting your healthcare provider. The GeneSight test must be ordered by and used only in consultation with a healthcare provider who can prescribe medications. As with all genetic tests, the GeneSight test results have limitations and do not constitute medical advice. The test results are designed to be just one part of a larger, complete patient assessment, which would include proper diagnosis and consideration of your medical history, other medications you may be taking, your family history, and other factors.

If you are a patient, please talk with your doctor to see if the GeneSight test may be helpful.
