I am still reluctant to be transformed into a cyborg. I am afraid of people drilling into my skull, probing around in my brain, and routing wires into my chest. We'll see how this procedure evolves. Maybe one day...
I am becoming more interested in rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) now that it is showing efficacy in people who have been resistant to drug treatment. There is no guarantee, of course. However, I would rather fail to respond to externally applied magnets first than to be subject to invasive brain surgery.

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
