A new experimental treatment for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is offering fresh hope. A 44-year-old man, who struggled with severe depression for 31 years, experienced a remarkable turnaround after undergoing PACE (Personalized Adaptive Cortical Electro-Stimulation), as detailed in a recent preprint study on OSF. The Struggles of a Lifetime: A Patient’s Journey with Depression For over three decades, the patient in …

A man who lived with severe, treatment-resistant depression for over 30 years is now in remission, thanks to a new brain stimulation method that targets selective areas of his brain. The man reported experiencing joy for the first time in decades after the treatment. “He was crying and saying, ‘I’m not sad, I’m just happy. I don’t know what to …
