> Why not try rTMS rather than go for the extreme??
Thank you for the suggestion Zeba.I was actually one of the first to try rTMS in a depression study at Beth Isreal back in 2000.
I recieved the real treatment, not the sham. There were no major side effects, but it also did nothing for my depression, not even a little.That was a while ago, and it is possible the parameters of the treatment have changed, but my shrink doesn't seem to think it's very effective.
