I am currently undergoing TMS therapy (transcranialmagneticstimultation) which is relatively new and maps your brain and sends electrical impulses into a certain spot on your brain. Relieves depression, anxiety, and panic attacks. Only drawback is the cost. It is NOT like ECT...you are fully conscious and fine after treatment. Had anyone else had this therapy? It seems to be working for me.

Wow! Isn't that an amazing scientific feat? I haven't had it but my friend did. It relieved her hand from shaking. Same type of procedure. It has worked wonders for her.

That's good to hear....I think it's the future of psychiatry because our brains have faulty wiring.
