I agree with Wildflowerchild25. It is recommended for patients on maximum medical therapy who have tried all the meds but still are depressed, suicidal, non-functional, etc. I had it earlier this year and it did not work for me. I had 10 treatments and the memory loss and cognitive loss due to having it has been a definite struggle. I had both bilateral and unilateral treatments and the bilateral causes more of the memory problems. In any event, unless you are suicidal or near-suicidal I wouldn't recommend it.
