Depression rates are greater in the military than in the general population, especially among family members. However, there is assistance available to lessen symptoms and enhance general wellbeing. It is a known fact that stigma within the military and among military families prevents some people from getting the assistance they need. If a military member seeks assistance for depression, they could be concerned about how their peers will see them or that they won’t be promoted.
"I can finally feel true happiness after 6 years of antidepressant cocktails... and I would recommend this place to everyone! TMS has been nothing short of a miracle for my depression and anxiety. Their cutting-edge technology pulled me out of a 3 month long depressive episode and helped me cut back on addictions I developed over many years of trying to self-medicate the pain away. Dr. Hy Gia Park, the technician Connor, and the receptionist Sharon are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and caring."
