Holmes has suffered from depression his entire life, and has tried several different medications to help but nothing seemed to work. Doctors at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior at UCLA Health are taking a different approach to help patients. Instead of drugs, they’re beaming magnetic pulses deep inside a patient's brain to change the way depression symptoms are perceived. “By pulsing it [the brain] with energy repeatedly, we're changing the way that area works, but also changing the way the whole brain network works." "It provided that kind of jolt to get my brain to start work again normally,” Holmes said.
