He didn't really say much, I did all the talking. I told him that all of the meds have either done nothing or made me feel worse. Because this response is so unusual, he probably thought to himself that I was just exaggerating to get attention. But I don't really care, I am used to psychiatrists not believing a word I say.
He hasn't mentioned anything about taking meds after treatment.
I have received four treatments so far, at a rate of one per day. It does hurt, but it hurts less with each treatment.
On day 1, I felt about the same after the treatment as I did before. On day 2, I felt a slight but noticeable mood lift for about ten hours following the treatment. On day 3, things went sharply downhill for some unknown reason, and I felt bad (ie worse than before day 1) for twelve hours following the treatment. On day 4, which is today, my mood dropped even more sharply. Today has been awful. Given the possiblity of another significant drop following tomorrow's treatment, I have opted to instead take a few days off, and return for another try on Monday.
