Re: Treat Insomnia (+ Depression + Anxiety)
Your $700 will make them feel less depressed and anxious that is for sure.

Re: Treat Insomnia (+ Depression + Anxiety)
I looked into it a while ago and found what I think is a good summary:
"Though the Fisher Wallace Stimulator seems like a magical cure-all for depression, anxiety, insomnia, and other disorders, upon closer examination it seems like it might not be. However, its most redeeming quality is that there are very few known side effects of using the device, and the company will give unsatisfied customers a full refund within 60 days of purchasing the device if they return it. The FW Labs also are rated at an “A+” by the Better Business Bureau, which is an excellent indicator that the company is not out to scam patients. It seems to me like the device is just like many other treatments for depression and other mood disorders. It might work for you, and there’s no real harm in trying it for a few weeks. But there’s no real scientific reason that it might work, so maybe it’s just the placebo effect."
Reading the reviews by people who've used it it seems like about half might have noticed a bit of a change, but mainly only if they used it twice a day for 20 minutes.
Really I have no idea, but if it appeals to you and if it's true that they'll give you your money back if it doesn't work then it seems like you don't have much to lose.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

Electroconvulsive Therapy ECT is among the safest and most effective treatments available for depression.
