I did around 80 treatments of the right side slow tms protocol. It was off label for bipolar. I didnt do it to treat voices. It was for depression/negative symptom stuff.
Works but i needed to go back every two weeks or I would revert back.

Ok, so that might be why this study had patients doing it repeatedly.
