Hi, I just did my 7th treatment today. The first week I felt a small lifting of the heaviness of depression. Yesterday and today I am feeling pretty depressed and anxious-perhaps because I didn’t have treatments over the weekend? The TMS operator did confirm that it can be a roller coaster of emotions. It’s hard to hang on and have faith this will work. The operator said no one has quit once they get past the first few sessions. So I’m keeping the faith and hoping tomorrow will be better.

Although I felt a little lighter after the third treatment, I got anxiety in the evening. Anxiety is always a morning issue for me so that Wes different.

I just wanted to reach out because I feel alone in this journey. I’m going through a divorce and am in between jobs. I have a 7 year old and I don’t want to be a depressed mom. I can fake it for her, but only so much. This has been really hard on me. I take it hour by hour and try to throw myself into something that keeps my mind off of it. The good thing is that because I am not working, I have time to get treatments every day.

Any response is welcome. Glad to have found this forum.
