I’m not a good candidate for TMS was told. Btw I also was “too unwell” to keep doing ketamine treatment. 16 meds have all failed. BPD, MDD, GAD, OCD, chronic dissociation. I’m so over it.

Apparently the TMS (which if for OCD and depression mind you) would make my intrusive thoughts worse or whatever the doctor said. It would stimulate me too much I think he said.

I wondered if he thought I was lying. I’m diagnosed with bipolar but REALLY don’t think I have it. I really think my psychiatrist misdiagnosed me. She can be wrong like that sometimes. Maybe that’s why I was told I wouldn’t be a good candidate? Anyway it sucks having a BPD diagnosis when I really don’t think I have it. It’s gonna potentially screw up future treatments.

Anyway, seriously. 16 failed meds. Ketamine didn’t work after 6 months (I was told to stop my treatment after my provider listened to me give him an update for like 15 minutes and charged me $250 for the meeting. That’s it. He made a drastic change to my treatment plan after hearing me talk for quarter of an hour. Not that it was working anyway). Now I’m told I’m not a good fit for TMS. Oh, and insurance would’ve charged me $200 a day to keep doing IOP.

I sometimes feel like the universe is out to get me and wants me to you-know-what.
