Not enough info.: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation has been used successfully for different psychiatric conditions. You have not told us what your diagnosis is. Do you have OCD? delusional disorder? psychosis? depression? I have only referred patients for TMS who have failed other treatments like psychotropic medications and psychotherapy.
