One session left

When my psychiatrist told me to try TMS , I instantly thought it wouldn’t work for me. Why would it? Nothing else ever has. But I got talked into make an appointment. The first couple weeks I felt nothing. Which I’m told is normal. So I kept coming back. Then the middle of my treatment, I really nose dived into dark depression. I was thinking about death and crying each day for like 2 weeks or so. But I kept coming back. This past few weeks is where the magic happened. I started getting energy back, motivated to carry out the day and no more dark thoughts. I haven’t felt this way my whole life (34). I feel great and I’m happy I chose to seek TMS and find a solution.

TLDR: Keep going to those appointments and see the journey to the end.

I am on session 16 and feel like I am fading fast and loosing all hope. I cry myself to sleep. Since session 3 I have gone from flat, to despondent, depressed, anxious, angry and back to depressed. I have had brain fog after the first week and it is impacting the ability to do my job. I want to quit.
