At-home brain stimulation helps people with depression - study
The Guardian|October 22, 2024
People with major depression could alleviate their symptoms by self-administering a form of electrical brain stimulation at home, according to a clinical trial of the therapy.
Ian Sample

Patients who took a 10-week treatment course were about twice as likely to have their depression go into remission than those in a control group who performed the same procedure with the current switched off.

The findings suggest that people with depression could receive beneficial brain stimulation without having to attend a clinic and that the treatment could become an effective alternative for those who do not want, or do not respond to, more traditional therapies.

At Bournemouth, Arsenal fans called the referee Robert Jones \"a cheat\" and chanted that the Premier League was \"corrupt\". On social media, the outrage was even greater. Fans have always complained about referees, of course, but traditionally they called them \"blind\" and dismissed them as \"wankers\" or \"bastards\". Then came the \"You're not fit to referee\" song; the cries of systemic corruption, though, are relatively new.
