I've been in therapy and on antidepressants off and on for almost 30 years, since I was a teen. I've tried inpatient treatment, various kinds of therapy, and myriad antidepressants over the years, and nothing seemed to help for long. I was hopeless, thinking I'd spend the rest of my life trying different combinations of meds to try to keep my depression from killing me, without ever actually feeling better. Then Willie suggested that I might be a good candidate for TMS. I researched it and talked it over with my family, and decided I had nothing to lose by giving it a try. After 15 sessions, I was able to discontinue one of my antidepressants. After a couple more, and people started commenting on how different I seemed. Going through TMS has let me feel my emotions again, without worrying that any negative emotions are going to spiral into a depression I can't get out of. The treatments themselves weren't painful. To me, it feels like when you've had your hair in a ponytail all day and when you let it down, it sort of aches for a minute. After a while, I even looked forward to going in because the interactions with Willie and his staff were so much fun (and I wasn't dreading leaving the house anymore). I would definitely recommend this treatment for anyone suffering from long-term depression.
