Signs and Symptoms of Depression You Shouldn't Ignore

Emerging Treatments

• Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): This non-invasive procedure uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, which can help alleviate depression symptoms.
• Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT): ECT is often used in severe cases where other treatments have not been effective. It involves sending small electric currents through the brain, which can trigger a brief seizure and alter brain chemistry.
