there is a new form of tms therapy called 'deep' tms. was fda approved earlier this year.

curious if anyone here has tried it yet?

it penetrates much deeper into the brain than tms and takes less sessions and time.

i'm sure it's still super expensive though.

thanks for any replies.

Hey, jjm51. I am not familiar with this technique, but maybe someone will come along soon who has tried it.
Thanks for this!

It's so new I don't think there are many of us that have tried it but I would be curious to know the effects of deep vs the original.

If rTMS doesn't work for me then I'm going to try dTMS for sure. Although I am very hopeful rTMS will work for me, which it's saying a lot since I'm not hopeful about much these days.
