Each person is different when it comes to results of treatment, be it meds or other forms of treatment. I had 3 rounds of TMS. I felt better fairly quickly with the first two(positive results of those each lasted about 6 months) but the 3rd took a while to kick in. It wasn't until I was almost finished with that round that I noticed a big difference. My 3rd round was at a different center and was 7 weeks. I am still doing really well after a year and a half following completion of that round. Some may not feel better until the round is finished. And sadly, for some it may not help much if at all. I hope you end up with positive results! TMS was the best thing to happen to me. It literally saved my life at one point. After decades of meds I became treatment resistant to them. Luckily my therapist recommended TMS.

I spent several months in TMS treatment. The first round was regular TMS and when that didn’t work, they tried deep TMS (I think that’s what they called it). Anyhow, I spent about 4 months doing it, but unfortunately it didn’t help at all. I still think it’s worth a try. Many people swear by it.
