Mindsip insights from this episode:
Recognize severe depression's physical symptoms to seek help
Severe depression can manifest in extreme physical symptoms, such as feeling paralyzed and lacking the motivation for basic bodily functions like urination.
Challenge medication-first approach for depression treatment
Medications are often the first-line treatment for depression over TMS not because they are better, but because they are cheaper and more accessible.
Utilize Kernel Flow to predict TMS therapy success
A device called Kernel Flow uses an algorithm to predict whether or not an individual will respond to TMS therapy before starting treatment.
Experience accelerated recovery with The Saint Protocol's intensive TMS therapy
The Saint Protocol is an accelerated TMS therapy consisting of 10-minute sessions every hour from 8 am to 6 pm for five consecutive days.
Unmask depression hidden behind false okayness
A person's ability to act like everything is okay can be so convincing that it masks the reality of their depression even from themselves.
Recognize post-treatment dips as confirmation of recovery
Experiencing a temporary dip back into depression after treatment can be helpful, as it highlights the stark contrast and confirms the therapy was effective.
Try Saint Protocol for effective five-day depression treatment
The Saint Protocol is a non-invasive, five-day TMS treatment for depression that has a reported 79% success rate.
