> To be honest, I've only been on a very few meds (effexor, cymbalta, lexapro, and SAM-e, if you consider that one). For a long time, I was doing fine, tolerating some annoying side effects with effexor (horrific night sweats). Now I'm in med limbo and terrified of taking drugs over the long haul.
You might be an ideal candidate to be treated with rTMS. People who have had many unsuccessful drug trials tend to do poorly with rTMS. I believe they have focused their attention on high-frequency (20 Hz) left prefrontal cortical stimulation.
