TMS for Anxiety and Trauma-related Disorders

This study is testing transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) — a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that uses magnetic pulses — as a treatment for anxiety and trauma-related conditions such as generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic disorder, and PTSD. TMS is already used for depression, and researchers want to see if it can help with these anxiety-related conditions too. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 60 years old - You have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, or PTSD - You have not gotten better with standard medication or therapy - Your anxiety level is significantly elevated (BAI score of 16 or higher) - You are right-handed - Your current treatment plan has been stable for at least 6 weeks **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a substance use disorder, eating disorder, bipolar disorder, psychosis, or significant suicidal thoughts - You have epilepsy or a history of brain surgery - You have a pacemaker or metal implants in your body - You have severe claustrophobia preventing MRI - You are pregnant - You have a severe current illness such as cancer or heart failure Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
