Major depressive disorder, also known as clinical depression, is one of the most common mental health conditions in the world. Professional diagnosis of MDD typically involves consistently depressed mood, in addition to at least four of the following symptoms:
In brain imaging studies, MDD has been linked to abnormalities in brain function and structure, which tend to affect the regions that control and regulate mood, emotion, and behavior. At Genesis TMS and Wellness, we understand that depression and other mental health conditions are not just psychological, they are physical—and our treatments are designed to help you treat the physical impact of your depression.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder manifests through intrusive, persistent thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These symptoms can severely disrupt your daily living by impairing your ability to complete even the most basic of tasks, like brushing your hair or dressing yourself. Brain imaging studies have highlighted differences in brain structure and function in OCD patients, especially areas that regulate emotion and behavior. Studies demonstrate that these impairments cause the symptoms of obsessions and compulsions that are characteristic of OCD.
Patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder with anxious depression experience depression and anxiety at the same time—often, they get the worst aspects of both mental health conditions at once. These patients experience typical depression symptoms, and in addition to standard depression symptoms, they experience debilitating anxiety symptoms like tension, restlessness, uncontrollable fear, and difficulty concentrating. These patients normally experience a poorer mental health prognosis and lower quality of life than patients with either depression or anxiety alone.
NeuroStar TMS Therapy is designed to offer symptomatic relief to patients with clinical depression, OCD, or anxious depression in a short treatment that lasts less than two months. Treatment highlights include:
