When depression comes with constant worry, it can feel twice as heavy. Many people with depression also live with persistent anxiety: racing thoughts, tension, restlessness or trouble switching off. When antidepressants haven’t brought enough relief for both, it can be hard to know where to turn next.
NeuroStar® TMS is FDA-cleared to treat depressive episodes and to decrease anxiety symptoms in adults with Major Depressive Disorder who may also have anxiety symptoms, when previous antidepressant medication hasn’t helped enough in the current episode. At TMS Greenwich in Cos Cob, we offer this non-drug, non-invasive option for qualifying patients.
TMS may be worth discussing if depression and anxiety continue to affect your daily life despite treatment.
TMS does not circulate through the body, so it avoids systemic side effects like weight gain, dry mouth or sedation.
No anesthesia and no memory loss. Sessions last 19 to 37 minutes and you can drive yourself home.
NeuroStar® uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. For adults with depression and anxiety symptoms, it is FDA-cleared to treat the depressive episode and to decrease anxiety symptoms, working differently from medication.
A short online questionnaire helps you reflect on your symptoms before you talk with us.
