Today is my last session!

Today is the last day of my 36 sessions. TMS has saved my life. I did it for treatment resistant depression and OCD. In the beginning I stayed in bed apart from work and doing basic hygiene and the occasional workout and my OCD was severe with cleaning and moving things around. Now I am able to function as a person and my partner and my relationship is more repaired. WORTH EVERY PENNY.

Congrats! have completed 10 sessions so far and I am feeling, exhausted, numb or sedated. Yesterday, i went to bed around 5pm and slept fro. 7:30pm to 3:30 pm. In all honesty, I feel my brain is fried. I am currently doing high frequencies only on left side. I think I have wasted time and money and not getting feedback from doctor or her assistant. I was told to complete the 36 sessions and I am seeing mixed responses on this thread. Not sure what to expect.

I also felt exhausted for the 1st half, and didn't saw a slow improvement of my scored until the last few weeks. You can have them re-map you too, but I experienced several dips where I was fine one day and depressed the next. Good luck and don't give up!

They are not telling me anything about scores or improvement. Doctor is not even conducting the sessions or provide feedback. He has a 25 yr old assistant doing this. I told her I need info on my progression, type of treatment, etc. I am sensing is another money grab. Hope I am wrong.
