thanks for always giving me hope fb.
I had my 7th treatment of rTMS this morning. I haven't noticed anything and am feeling discouraged. But there still is time to respond somewhat. I have 30 treatments.
But now I have to think about what if it doesn't. Meds make me worse. ECT or the d word. I've been worse, but after 25 years of depression it's mostly the hopelessness. From my experience, I concluded that ect only helped me when drug trials really screwed me up. It was like a "reboot" from a hung-up application. But it didn't take away my normal "state". The dr. said that he thinks that if I do it, it would be a more intense treatment. Probably bilateral, more treatments, and more maintenance. God let TMS help me!!!
