HI,

Newbie here.

Suffered from deep depression for many years. Meds are no longer working.

Does anyone know about the relatively new Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?

I don't know my way around yet, so if anyone knows a forum that discusses

this, please let me know. Thanks so much, Lynne

Hello lohmeier: Welcome to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

I'm not knowledgeable with regard to TMI. Possibly your best bet for posting with regard to this is the Other Treatments forum:

Other Treatments - Forums at Psych Central

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!

I had TMS done, unfortunately it didn't work for me.

I researched this online and it seemed that people were spending a lot of
"out of pocket" money on it (average $11,000 for a treatment cycle) and I did not read about one person getting relief. Some said it caused headaches and other pain.
