What your psychiatrist told you is incorrect. Some people are very fortunate and get amazing results with TMS and full remission but most people get some partial remission that last only for a period of time and a whole lot of people get no relief. It's definitely worth trying and I hope you are one of the 60% of people who find great relief and full or partial remission.

Follow-up: It's been a year since I had TMS treatment. While it is not the miracle cure I had hoped for, it has helped me a lot in handling whatever life throws my way. I have not been on antidepressants since 2013. Even managed to ween myself off of Trazadone that I took for insomnia thanks to TMS treatment.
If your insurance covers this treatment (expensive otherwise!), it's worth a try. |
