I use an Alpha Stim and started recently with neurofeedback. I love my Alpha Stim, bought it for anxiety and insomnia.

I tried TMS two years ago and it did not work. I believe it might work for depression but not anxiety. I have ocd, anxiety and depression. I was very disappointed but not everyone has the same result. I think the only thing you can do is try it.

I am 3 sessions short of my 36 sessions. I have gotten no relief at all. Disappointed and frustrated. They want me to do 10 more sessions. I don’t think I want to continue. Feeling tired was my only side effect.

TMS competitor is Neurofeedback, as they both require # of sessions.

Alpha Stim is a device, you can purchase. Here is a good explanation of how TMS and Alpha Stim can work together.

My Neurofeedback therapy so far (2 sessions) has revealed, my sub-conscious is a lot calmer and present vs other patients. Because I use the Alpha Stim daily and before each session.
