10 Reasons Patients Say 'YES' to TMS

At present, mental health conditions are a pandemic too. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting 40 million adults age 18 and older. Anxiety disorders are highly treatable, yet only 36.9% of those suffering receive treatment.

Over 16 million adults per year experience a major depressive episode - nearly 7% of the adult population, and is most common between the ages of 18-25. Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide.

As if those statistics are not enough, here are 10 other reasons to seek TMS therapy:

1. Depression is a serious medical condition that can have significant impact on both your mental and physical health
2. Depression, left untreated can lead to worsening symptoms, including suicidal thoughts and suicide
3. Medications for depression, anxiety, and other mental health problems often cause worsening symptoms, are associated with terrible side effects, and can often lead to dependence
4. Clinical depression leads to an enlarged and hyperactive amygdala (a region of the brain)
5. Depression can cause a lot of symptoms within the central nervous system, many of which are easy to dismiss or ignore. Older adults may also have difficulty identifying cognitive changes because it’s easy to dismiss the signs of depression as related to “getting older.”
6. Anxiety and depression often lead to family, friend, and other relationship problems - which causes a person to isolate and can worsen symptoms of loneliness, hopelessness, and worthlessness
7. TMS offers long-term states of relief of symptoms and remission
8. More than 80% of people who say 'yes' to TMS, receive significant symptom relief, with greater than 50% experiencing complete remission
9. While not a permanent cure, the average length of symptom relief or remission is approximately one year
10. Lack of treatment only leads to worsening symptoms both mentally and physically
