Hello Everyone, I am individual who is 70 year old and suffer from both OCD and Depression. I have had both of them off and on for many years. I was wondering if anyone has tried either electro shock therapy, TMS, and cannabis oil and what your results were. Look forward toward your response

@herbnj- A warm welcome to our wonderful group. I have PTSD and depression, and anxiety, among many other things! lol. I am 72 and have been using CBD oil for over a year. It helps me. It calms me and soothes me and it doesn't get you high. I am also on Zoloft and Wellbutrin.
I would think that electro shock and TMS would be your last resort.
Are you seeing a counselor or psychologist? Are you on any other meds for this?
Have you spoken to your doctor that you feel something has changed and need some additional help?
