Hello, Misschristianmt.

New but expensive: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) - magnets, not electricity

PC Blog: Are New Treatments for Depression Right Under Our Nose? - Yogic breathing, laughing gas...

PC Article: Depression: New Medications On The Horizon - NMDA receptor antagonists, triple reuptake inhibitors (TRIs), melatonin, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)

By PC's Dr. Grohol: Alternative Approaches in the Treatment of Depression - references ketamine (an NMDA receptor antagonist) and links to a podcast, Intriguing Approaches to Overcoming Depression

One of my doctors was pushing me toward ECT, whereas my psychiatrist would rather I try TMS if it becomes available in my care system(s).
