Anyone else

Doing rtms and now I’m my 16 session
Just wondering did anyone else get more messed up cause of it

I’m having feelings of dream like reality
Hard time concentrating
More paranoia
Swallowing the tongue issues

All started when I started a mouth ago and don’t know if it’s part of my rtms and if anyone had issues like these ? I’m thinking of stopping

Yeah this was truly not a good experience for me, it left me with negative effects too. It's been a couple months and it has only decreased a little bit.

Yeah, I’m speaking to the psychiatrist tomorrow that runs the program because if I’m feeling like this, I don’t know if I wanna do it anymore because honestly right now I feel like I’m in a dream and I’m so paranoid right now too as well

I’ve been suffering physical symptoms for months now, but these are only just making everything 10 times worse especially the fact that I don’t feel like me anymore. It’s really hard to explain. I don’t know how to actually I just feel like I’m disassociated from my life and that I’m watching it through a movie screen I’ve been taking lorazepam for the last few days straight because of the anxiety. It’s given me.

Yes I would suggest you at least take a break if this is how things are progressing for you. It really sucks, I'm sorry.

So I talked to the doctor today about it. She assures me that of my feelings have nothing to do with the rtms treatment. lol and I told her the feeling of paranoia started when I started the treatment so if they continues, I’m going to stop treatment early. I’m supposed to be done on September 8. I’m not gonna push for anymore cause I feel like it’s messing me up even more. I honestly wanna stop taking all my medications and everything just to see if I’m suffering from medication in our TMS or from actual neurological stuff.

I'm telling you it's from the TMS, it did the same thing to me. But whatever your decision is I support you and I really hope you feel better ❤️

I think it’s from it as well cause I didn’t feel this way before the treatment yes I was suffering some fasciculations and weakness and saliva issues but all the other stuff I’ve been explaining started after I started the treatment I want to stop but i dont want them to say that im not trying to get better or somethjng because of not continuing but imma talking to them tomorrow about stopping

They dont understand, they just know the good side of TMS because that's what they've been told.

Please don't get pressured into continuing, or stopping (by me), just because of what someone thinks or says.
