I received TMS and it was just like having a helmet put on your head and getting attacked by a woodpecker. It was so painful. I would cry after that I had like a straw face.

Dear Mia, thank you so much for your podcast, your thoughts and the way you support other mothers are amazing! I am a Russian living in Germany, we have different backgrounds, but your words and philisophy resonate so much with me. Just thank you for the wisdom and willingness to share❤

At around 19:13 you talk about 'life stressors picking up' That is the root cause of your depression/anxiety You need to deal with those and your issues will go away,

I wonder if TMS can be used to recall lost memories.

Much love Aaron! Always, thank you 💜

Wow your channel is amazing, this meditation spoke to me in a very deep level. Subscribed! I can’t wait to continue to explore myself through this.

We often spend most of our energy, ensuring others are comfortable. These very people are overstepping our boundaries

Hi, I just started TMS and I was researching more about it on CZcams and I came across your videos and after hearing how severe and how long your depression has lasted despite many different treatments, hearing you describe your sleep problems and describing how it feels like you been hit by a truck when you wake up in the morning, I finally for the first time in my life don't feel alone. Your story about severe depression, severe anxiety, sleep problems, ptsd, and dealing with perfectionism, all the while being a mother, is exactly identical to mine. I'm so thankful to have come across your videos. We can and will get through this. Thank you

Thank you

Such great reminders, Mia, especially for those of us who are people pleasers!

I really like the idea of a written chore chart between spouses, as it makes expectations clearer, creates accountability, and prevents us from having to keep discussing things. We definitely need to be cautious about the tone we use when speaking to our husbands to not come across as condescending or like we expect him to fail and so we’re creating a chart to stop him from doing so 😅 Everything is a collaborative effort towards a shared and loving goal. I can only imagine how hard it is for working mommas to bear most if not all of the household chores despite having to earn a living. A husband who helps out helps so much!!!

Such a great episode. Thanks for sharing that story at the end.

TMS is free now. Fully funded. Id give it another try and perhaps try to time it during a time that is less emotional. Less demands and change going on in your life. Try getting on a sleep medication so that's not an issue. It's a simple fix. It's your responsibility to do your part. I applaud your efforts to get away from toxic medications. CP PTSD is serious and some meditation, yoga, herbal teas are helpful but laughable for anyone to think that's gonna do it. Sleep medication is essential if your having such nightmares. It's awesome that your being honest about your experience. I'm going to do this and document it as well. Your going through a lot and as you said you have to choose the right time to do it. Thank you very much for sharing your experience

Is this like "shock treatment" my sister had decades ago in a mental hosp.?

You look like sade the singer. Beautiful ❤

Great episode! I’m a newly SAHM and experienced so much trouble in my new role after I was laid-off last year. I always thought I had to find an outside way to cover me instead of just allocating and including my needs into the general household’s needs. It’s so affirming to hear your description of reallocating resources in order to make sure you are covered in the family too.

Healing reflections. Thank you ❤

Thank you, because I was looking for some video expressing this treatment. 😢

I am new to TMS my doctor recommended this treatment after many different depressions medicine i think I’m ready to go with TMS treatment.. please pray for me

Mia, I'm so grateful to find your podcast at the beginning of my motherhood. My little baby has 4 months now and I'm going through a very hard time dealing with my perfectionism. Listen to you really helps me to come back to reality and stop pushing myself too much. That made me a little more conscious about the importance of self-care and I started to have more relaxing time with my husband. I'm noticing that life doesn't need to be hard to be the best and that I don't need to be perfect to be loved and accepted. May God bless your family. And, once again, thank you so much. Kisses from Brazil!

Wow, I admire you! Thank you for sharing your story 😊. I am starting TMS treatment next Tuesday at MUSC in South Carolina 🙏

Very good video abd is helping me choose where I want to retire or work remotely I am tired of the usa trump etc...

Great video! You may want to consider reposting. More people need to hear this!🙏🏼

Great video, brought happy tears to my eyes! Thanks for sharing! Take care and stay well!

This gives me a lot of food for thought. You're right. We ARE allowed to be bad at something and mediocre at others. Thank you. Such a great reminder of something I've recently started to learn for myself also x

You are so wholesome

You're lucky it at least didn't harm you. I know of many people, myself included, where it made us worse. I have issues with mood dyregulation now, trouble with focusing and memory. Other issues too, but those are the main ones. It was two years ago and I'm still dealing with the fallout. I caution anyone against tms... it CAN harm you. The doctors won't admit it. If you do it and it hurts you, you'll be on your own. That's how it is for me now.

Great advice! Super underrated channel:)

Very relatable video! Thank you for posting it.

I am trying to get TMS from my insurance right now, I am hopeful. I may have to fly to the mainland from Hawaii to get the TMS paid for. Sorry to hear your treatment did not help very much. I get night terrors whenever I go up or down significantly on an antidepressant, I believe they trigger them. I am praying you get relief from the depression, anxiety, and insomnia. I understand the challenges especially having an antidepressant stop working and having to deal with insomnia. Oh my, prayers, prayers, and more prayers. My daughter and her family live in Portugal and are moving to Ericera at the end of June.

💯that is self-care especially if god forbid tou were not washing dishes or filding laundry atvthe same time 😱😂 I feel you!

Love this video! Your honesty is refreshing. Thank you for these invaluable tips ❤

Have you heard of Ketamine or Spravado treatments for depression? Also Subboxone works WONDERS for depression

I left in 2021 with absolutely no plans of returning to live. Grateful for my blue privilege to leave. (Passport)

Yes!!! we live so many lifetimes in today’s world. And we live long. There’s no rush for anything.

OMG, really? Why did you have a child if you don’t want to the responsibility of being a parent? Weak adults now a days.

Why didn't you think before you bought those shoes? You claim to be green when most returns end up in the land fill.

Thank you for this

❤ thank you for sharing your story, this was the first video I watched about TMS and I’m grateful for your honesty and insight

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Hearing every testimonial of this treatment is so important. You are doing good work ❤️

Praying for your recovery sister, God has a plan!

Sorry about that, a few years ago I read Dr. Daniel G. Amen books, and found out he does does scans, it is very expensive but it has helped a lot of people, you might want to check it out. Check your thyroid..............
