Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about our depression treatment services.
Can Go MD USA diagnose depression?
Yes. Our doctors and nurse practitioners use the same clinical guidelines and tools to diagnose depression online as they would in person.
Can Go MD USA treat depression online?
Yes. Our team will work with you month by month to find an antidepressant that works for you. Treatment is centered on monthly video consultations. We do not currently offer CBT, but we can help you find CBT resources that may complement medication.
Are antidepressants effective?
Antidepressants are generally effective, though response varies by person. We often start with an SSRI and adjust based on how you respond. No medicine is guaranteed to work for everyone.
How quickly do antidepressants work?
They do not work immediately. It may take 6–8 weeks to know how a dose works for you, and up to 3 months to feel the full benefits.
How long will I need to take antidepressants?
Most people stay on depression medicines for at least 12 months the first time. Our team will help you decide the right duration for your situation.
Treatment & risks
Important information about our depression treatment approach.
Depression is complex. While telemedicine helps many people, we cannot help everyone, and results take time. If your situation is too complex for virtual care, we will recommend in-person care.
Medicines we prescribe are FDA-approved and widely used, but all medications carry risk of side effects—and we cannot guarantee a specific treatment will work for you.
