Just Googled TMS or RTMS. It’s a fairly new thing getting approved in the UK by NICE in 2015. NICE = National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) provides national guidance and advice to improve health and social care.

It seems like a low risk and is non invasive procedure but one that takes time and needs repeating. I’m presume your looking for people with experience of having this treatment and I’m afraid I can’t help you in that respect. It’s interesting being made aware of different treatments, especially if talking therapy hasn’t helped. One persons experience might be very different to your own, I would suggest talking to an expert in the field. They are going to be the best person to advise you on this. From what I read of this the side effects seem worth what might be the benefits of this. It’s always worth weighing up this. Personally I would try talking therapy first before going for this even though it seems to be all mainly good.

This link seems informative. I see it’s by a clinic and so I presume they are trying to sell this. Keep that in mind. Make sure you get proper professional advice about how this treatment is good or bad for you.
I have had it done. Twice.
