Answer by Patti C
I didn’t know they used it for addictions. I have some experience with it for depression. Not personal experience; a relative had it done for depression. It worked well for her, but it wasn’t as immediate as the doctor had hoped.

My relative did not have any bad effects from this, so if it is offered, I would give it a try (whether it is for you or someone else).

Good luck
