Daily life can be challenging for patients with anxious depression. Even the most mundane, everyday tasks become arduous as you struggle with decision-making and the ability to focus. Physical symptoms such as muscle tension, headaches, and fatigue make experiencing anxious depression even more challenging.
Traditional treatments such as medication and therapy are often not the right fit for our patients. If this sounds like you, NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy may suit you. This TMS treatment in Fort Washington may help you manage your anxious depression symptoms better than medication or therapy ever could.
Patients with anxious depression experience lowered activity in certain areas of the brain that regulate and control their mood, emotion, and behavior. This can cause symptoms of anxious depression.
NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy works directly to stimulate these areas of the brain. It uses safe electromagnetic pulses to treat and essentially “wake up” your brain and its activity.
As a result, NeuroStar TMS works to regulate your emotions and mood—helping you experience improvement in your anxious depression by enhancing your desire for social engagement and helping you experience fewer depression days.
Over time, NeuroStar TMS trains your brain to help you manage your anxious depression symptoms independently. Some of the primary reasons why we highly recommend this innovative treatment include the following:
These and many other advantages, make NeuroStar the gold standard in TMS therapy for our Fort Washington patients with anxious depression.
