Feeling the Winter Blues?
You’re Not Alone…
According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI):
-
-
- 64% of people with a mental illness report that the holidays make their conditions worse;
- Approximately 24% of people with a diagnosed mental illness find that the holidays make their condition “a lot” worse and 40% “somewhat worse”;
- And children and teens get the blues this time of year; the highest rate for child psychiatric hospitalizations occurs in winter.

“The holidays are stressful, and when you add on a mood disorder such as depression or anxiety, it can feel even more tense. This is why we’re always ensuring patients that we will be open and stay the course with them, especially during this busy time of year.” – Dr. Terry Eagan

Anyone who has battled major depression knows how debilitating it can be; even completing a basic task can feel like a huge undertaking, let alone during the holiday season. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), is a cutting-edge alternative treatment for depression that is life-changing in its effectiveness. This non-invasive treatment is cleared by the FDA, proven safe, covered by most insurances, and typically takes six weeks to do.
