Does anyone know if there are any doctors in connecticut (US) or a state near connecticut who are doing transcranial magnetic stimulation off-label for depression? I don't want to do a clinical study and would just be willing to pay to get the TMS treatment out of pocket. Thanks in advance for any help.
Another question I have is for people who have had transcranial magnetic stimulation performed already. What was the treatment like? Did you feel something right away after getting TMS, or did it take time to work? What did it feel like? Did you feel happier and have more interest in life etc? I'm really curious to find out what specific depressive symptoms are improved with this treatment.

Heah grew up in Fairfield County CT and I'd contact Yale and see if they do or can refer you. UCONN maybe would know too. And Good luck. Love Phillipa former preppy!!!!!

I had the treatment done in Vancouver privately.. It feels like a woodpecker is hitting your head.. an adult male woodpecker i may add..It didnt help me at all, but im bipolar so it was probably the wrong treatment for me...
goodluck
