I did TMS on the Neurostar (36 1-hour sessions) didn't do anything but eat up gas making 36 trips across the island. So tried several ECT therapies which didn't do anything either so traveled 3,000 miles to do Ketamine which simply made me severely ill and gave me double vision and unable to walk for three days. I know these therapies do work for some people but with TMS, I just don't believe the efficacy research. After 7-years of unrelenting suicidal depression literally trying every therapy (short of DBS which has been recently proven ineffective) I found a psychiatrist who was willing to prescribe Nardil (an MAOI) after 2-weeks, I have been 100% free of depression- The first time in 30-years- Unbelievable...A true miracle. Best wishes
