Depression touches a lot of lives. If you don't suffer directly from it, it's quite possible you know someone that does. You experience their good and bad days, ups and downs, and the thoughts they're feeling in your own way. Depression doesn't just affect those who are diagnosed, but the people they are close to.
Unfortunately, there aren't many cures for depression that aren't based around pharmaceutical assistance. Specialists recommend talking to friends, taking up hobbies and building better relationships, but these suggestions can be very difficult for a person living under the cloud of depression. In fact, they simply might not work to combat the condition.
A new form of treatment used, TMS, has been making a little bit of headway recently. The abbreviation, TMS means trans cranial magnetic stimulation. It works by sending magnetic pulses to stimulate parts of the brain believed to be associated with mood regulation. This treatment has virtually no side effects as the conventional medications do. It is noted that TMS doesn't trigger seizures like electro-shock therapy can for depression treatment.
Stay tuned for part (2).
Have a balanced and healthy day!!
