Only 3% of the global population would experience depression? It seems so underestimated...
Ppl get confused between depression and sadness
That's people that have actually been diagnosed. There's a huge chunk more who suffer in silence.
Alot of people don't say anything or don't really know they are depressed.
There are people out there in extremely less technically / medically advanced remote regions, the remaining frontiers beyond civilisation - who don’t even have the concept of “depression the illness”in their local societal group consciousness , or local language. Add to that too: very deprived poverty stricken parts of (whilst less remote but very much) poor third world regions; towns and even cities in som parts of Africa, South America, Asia, Russia, where the concepts of clinical depression, bipolar, SAD, etc are known to much of the general populae due to access to google and cable tv….but other than the very small minority of wealthy folk at the topic, most “citizens” have no access to diagnosis, let alone documented treatment, etc - they’re lucky to get basic vaccines for killer diseases ffs.
…so whatever number you used for “humans on earth” that derived your 3% is far far too high to be truly accurate.❤
I'd sooner try this than getting all kinds of fucked up on SSRIs
Exactly
Dont try it.i have it doesn't do anything
I’m not sure scrambling my noggin with electricity would necessarily be healthier
Man every collage student needs it
If I had five kids I'd be DEPRESSED too.
Thank you for sharing.
I need this
So what happens when you're not depressed and use TDCS? Does it make you more blithe? Or nothing changes?
Its promising, concerns i have from reading the lower rated trustpilot reviews are about tinnitus not subsiding, headaches and burns... but worst is flows lack of response on longer term tinnitus issues. I have heard that other sets using the same technology are better designed but flow having the NHS contract is getting prominent media coverage... I hope they can address the problems as for those with sensory issues the prospect of tinnitus in addition to depression issues is a serious situation that could endanger a person in distress to harm themselves
I wonder how they decided what level or intensity of electric flow this thing outputs ?
Imagine it was faulty and was cooking your brain
@loadapish Reading your comment while I wear one of the headsets
I wonder how this would work in combo with meditation, exercise, ket, sunrise alarm clock and a 810nm intranasal vie light.
@Heartspacerelaxations6924 have you had much exposure/experience of 810nm INIR ? Would love to hear your honest thoughts and reflections on its efficacy and potential uses.
I need this.
No, seriously.

Perhaps you should show this video to your parents and have a discussion about it. If you can't go to your parents, seek out a doctor or other adult you can talk to.
@@multiverseone8115 how are things now in your life
I have been using this for three weeks, my feelings of suicide have gone but I have no idea if that is due to the flow headset or other factors, I am not really sure if it’s helping. It’s damned expensive and you have to buy new cellulose pads as you can’t reuse them.
I am seriously contemplating trying one if these but very skeptical. Is it still helping?
@@jamesfell9191 I haven’t used this in several days as I have been too tired. In hindsight I’m not sure I should have bought this, you might want to see if you can hire or borrow one, ask your GP/health clinic about it.
Has it helped you
@@instadam864 No I don’t think so.
@james I think your options are limited. If you are capable of buying this, you give it a try consulting with your GP. Other companies also sell cheaper than this.. you can try US companies, thy also deliver..
any real clinical reviews???
Everbody needs Theis FLOW
Try grounding
Id rather get actual help....or have the world not be so damn aweful that I need a device to fix me :/ This is a beak future where you get told if your sad...just put this on £499 and stop being sad, need a therapist? Just listen to this app chat bot....There's more to depression than an expensive toy version of actual treatment that 'should' be on the NHS.
tCDS is a legitimate, proven treatment option for depression. If it works for some people what's the problem with that?
The damn awful world has no impact on a serious depression! At least not to me! Depression comes from inside, and that device may help those patients, who are not successful or happy with antidepressants! And if you have the feeling, not being happy, hasn't anything to do as well, even if someone tells you, you aren't happy! I am quite aware of myself, to know, when I am not happy, I don't need anybody to tell me, what's my inner struggle!✌️
FlOW please help
Can this device treat advanced ADHD?
I'm asking if there is asoftware that ahelp of eye glass and hearing aids can see and listen sound of jesus(angels)anddevils(damons,evil)or avideo camera software that both appeared?
this is for depression not schizophrenia mate
The only question is - is this really a treatment or way to re-program personality to "be happy"?
If it makes people feel better who cares
Flow neuroscience
Arrest boris
Comment aged well, I guess.
3% 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Think 50
Didn't a dodgy start up try a mood band kind of thing before, take the advice from the app, don't pay for the hardware scamware, I call bullshit.
This is tCDS, it is well studied. Works for some, not for others. Look it up.
FREE return and FULL REFUND if you see no difference in 30 days... Yeah really sounds like a scam to me too 🙄🤦♂️
You're telling me that the tiny coils and tiny battery in that thing can produce a magnetic field with significant strength? I guess then my brain also gets stimulated by the magnets in my headphones
Not magnetic field.. dc .. this is actually well studied... current is easily verified- the result vary
It's not the strength that helps "reset" the brain -- this isn't exactly like a defib machine for re-starting the heart.
You should probably do more research on the technology used before you make ignorant comments like this
its actually sad to see that people cant cure themselves and would have to rely on these types of machinery to make themselves happy
Post a comment only when you know what you’re talking about.
Your comment makes me depressed. Should I use these magic headphones to make me feel better?
