I’ve struggled with depression & anxiety since my early teens. Over a period of 30 years, I was treated with 21 different medications including those identified through genetic testing. In spite of medications, therapy and self-learned coping skills, I had to be hospitalized due to suicidal thoughts in January 2017, my psychiatrist recommended TMS.
Within 2 weeks of treatment, I had clear thoughts, improved ability to focus and less irritability. I was the organized person I once was. The third week of treatment I noticed a decrease in panic attacks, minimal worrisome and repetitive thoughts, and procrastinated less. I also began to engage in activities that I once enjoyed. The fifth week brought along improved cognitive abilities, being able to self-care and have a free flowing conversation. I was able to actually feel my feelings vs. being emotionally numb. My spontaneous sense of humor returned and I had no depression or thoughts related to want to end my life.
