I just started neurofeedback about 1.5 month ago. I suffer from a wide range of symptoms (anxiety, depression, anhedonia, obsessivity, psychosis) as a result of longterm trauma and (legal) medication use.

I find the neurofeedback quite scary... I don't feel like they really understand the brain enough or know what they are doing or what the effects for each person can be. But I have the same feeling with medication. And want to try it because I have severe side effects from medication and I just need to find something different to get off meds.

That being said... I can see results. They are partly positive (I seem to be more stable, less anxious, less depressed, less obsessive, less sensitive to psychosis). Partly negative (more anhedonia, feeling less emotions, also less positive emotions).

I have a strong doubt whether to continue. It definitely has effects for me, but also adverse effects and I think good psychotherapy should be tried first.
