I had. Like almost 40 sessions., twice a week. was manic during part of the treatment but I didnt know yet that I was manic nor did I have a diagnosis except depression. I think it might have made my mania worse which could be a sign that it works. Because I had to travel more than 1 hour one way I combined it with neurofeedback for ADD and sleep.At that time I was also starting mirtazapine after paroxetine flipped me into mania/mixed state so I dont know what did what.
It is expensive at least in Holland. Has cost me about 4000 euros and not covered by my insurance.

Dx: Mix anhedonia with Bipolar II. Add some insomnia and chronic stress. Season with paroxetine and a pinch of ADD. Stir well to induce a couple of hypo/manic episodes. After the excess of energy is gone, remove the Paroxetine and serve chilled with some C-PTSD and GAD. Ready is your MDD.
Mx: To clean up the mess use lamotrigine, risperidon, mirtazapine and sertraline. Let it soak in for a while but keep a close eye on it. Meanwhile enjoy your desert of oxazepam/temazepam prn.
