@obscurestar oof. So some of the science here is definitely solid - amygdala/forebrain stuff and an apparently hard to predict pattern maps to what I know about PTSD. And TMS seems to help with depression. My only caveat about the science part is that humans have longer more complex lives than mice so I don't think just doing one thing is gonna work BUT

But I agree with being cynical here. This is the USA in 2025 so I feel skeptical about how anything mental health is treated.
