Hi Everyone

Has anyone ever had the above treatment. It does say that it is used for depression, nothing about treating anxiety. Would be interested to hear thoughts from people who have had this type of treatment.

Dear Agobella~

As well as seeing who replies here can I suggest you do a search of the Forum?

If you Google:

TMS beyondblue forum
or
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation beyondblue forum

you will find others that have talked about this treatment.

In addition it is mentioned on page 23 of the Beyond Blue publication found here:

https://learn.beyondblue-elearning.org.au/workplace/resources/pdf/topic5/GuideToWhatWorksForAnxiety.pdf

Hope that helps
