    Just finished #21 with NeuroStar and have not had a dip. Does that mean it is not working for me?

    My understanding is that not everyone gets “the dip”, although I certainly did. It is hard to proceed with TMS when you don’t have a lot of clues that it is working. Be sure to talk with your psychiatrist administrator about the things you are noticing — or aren’t noticing — so you can set your mind at ease. I have also found it helpful to rely on friends and family for feedback about what they’re noticing as I moved through treatment. I’m on #27 and am hearing a lot of observations from others; that is helpful in framing what I see.

    Good luck!

    Thanks. I sought the treatment myself and the techs have not asked or listened to any concerns that I have. I finished #28 today with no improvement in my depression. Each day I hope that this is the day…,next week I start to taper….

    Do you have a physician or administrator who follows your progress?

    This is so disturbing to me that people “appear” to be getting this treatment and yet are not under the care of a psychiatrist.Under NO circumstances would I have treatment without a supervising physician.
