Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy - anyone tried it?

[TheNewGirl 1,348]

 

Or know anyone who's tried it? I have a friend who tried it and swears it truly cured her depression. Been reading up on it, and it can be a bit painful. Treatments are daily for 4 to 6 weeks. Probably not covered by insurance, since they tend to go the pill route.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain. It is primarily used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) when other treatments, such as medication, have not been effective.

Sorry about that. Never tried it. Sounds a little bit like shock therapy.

Isn't that what they used in the book Flowers for Algernon?

Unfortunately, I don't think there is a cure for that.

I don't know any and don't think about them whilst going about my daily business, and then I stop by here and it's trans this and trans that.

For fook's sake, there are 85 pages worth of trans mentions here, and that's not including the term "tranny."

https://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/search/?q=trans

Those who identify as trans represent 1.6 percent of the population, according to the Pew Research Center.

Yet they take up 30 percent of the head space around here, with 30 percent Trump obsession and most of the rest a mix of DEI, Biden, Harris and other MAGA-fueled subjects.

Weird.

There really has to be some kind of Glanscranial Stimulation joke available for this thread, right?

I actually agree with weepaws here. I know I'm going to regret giving him any attention, but we don't need machines to cure most diseases.

they do not, there is no way a tranny is 1 in 100 people

what we do know is that 100% of trannies have mental health issues

Is being trans the direct cause, or might it be growing up with trans hate all around, like we heavily have here, bruh?

I imagine growing up hiding something because it's so widely despised takes its toll on a poor child's mental health. Imagine a trans child reading this forum and seeing all the unhealthy hate and obsession.

No different from victims of pedophiles. You expect a kid whose dad molested them during their childhood to become a mentally fit adult with no issues?

What a microcosm we have here, a bunch of angry middle-aged white men fearing trans, playing the discrimination card and acting like a bunch of sissy victims.

Boo hoo.

Man up, bruhs, and have some empathy and compassion.

That's what real men do, even middle-aged white ones.

I have zero issue

the reality is that the levels of testosterone among the average male is whats causing it

the fact that you think reading a forum is similar to being a victim of a child molester, you have serious issues

You completely missed the point, bruh, but that's not surprising.

My point is that mental illness among trans people is the product of growing up being exposed to the kind of hateful transphobia that you and others here obsesses over and relentlessly discuss daily.

It's no different than mental illness among victims of child molestation or growing up in a violent home where daddy is a raging alchoholic who regularly beats mommy.

Witnessing and/or experiencing physical and/or emotional abuse at an early age most definitely fooks up a kid who grows into an adult with mental problems.

This is Pyschology 101.

gender dysphoria is a mental illness, it starts long before transitioning

you should go back to psych at your community college, might get you that assistant manager job at Starbucks one day

OK, so does it make you feel like a big man to hate on the mentally ill?

I ate some peyote once. The real wee cactus thingy. Not a pill or capsule that could have been filled with whatever. I walked around in the dark at a beach in Cali. A dog joined me. 

Anyway, it cured my depression. Depression or a hangover. Not sure which.
