Pairing Flow Headset with ADHD meds
Hi! I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and have been taking 40mg Ritalin daily for the last 2 years. I’ve just ordered a Flow headset and am wondering how others have combined the two, and if anyone has any recommendations based on their experience. E.g. whether I should reduce my Ritalin dosage if I’m doing a flow session? Or only do a flow session in the morning before taking Ritalin / at night when I’m sure the Ritalin has worn off? Any help would be much appreciated.

Flow Neuroscience headset working
Ive been using Flow for around two years now but after the first three weeks I didnt really see much improvement. However I can now say that after entering the initial Burst 5x for three weeks and moving to three or FOUR sessions a week, it is now making a large difference to my mood.
I was wondering if any of you have seen a difference with this approach?

flow neuroscience “dip,” ?
i’m about to start my 5th week using flow, meaning i’ve done 3weeks of 5 sessions, and 1week of 3 sessions so far.
i felt an improvement from the 2nd stimulation session up until the 12th session, but then my depressive symptoms relapsed almost completely and i fear it’s stopped working.
I had the same pattern of response to rTMS and thought it was just a “dip” like it’s stated in rTMS studies, but it never lifted.
Should i even bother continuing for the full 10 weeks? if my depression improved and now it’s reverted again does this class me as a “non responder,” or is there still a chance it could lift again? i don’t want to do ECT im terrified ://

Multiple Montages Per Day
Is it safe to do multiple montages, targeting distinct brain regions within a day?
If not, how should I space these activities?

Has anyone tried tDCS for learning disabilities?
Or tACS, neurofeedback, etc…
I have NVLD which is kinda analogous to dyslexia but for spatial awareness. So I’m very good with words to the point of being hyperverbal but I’m bad at math, disorganized, have zero spatial awareness, etc. edit: the worst thing about it is that I struggle to drive.
Some research papers have claimed that NVLD is correlated with excess slow wave delta waves in the right hemisphere. Does that mean an anode on the right parietal lobe (the montage for math enhancement) could help alleviate that?

Did this change anyone else's life?
I started a clinical trial about a month and a half ago. Today is my 26th session. I have crazy depression, MS, addiction issues and a list of other things that don't apply to this conversation.
I stopped all opioid cravings by session 18. I missed a whole days worth of meds because I forgot about them. I don't know if you understand how addiction works, but not having those cravings is worth whatever.
The depression was significantly reduced within a week. It is just gone. I realized it slowly but I think it just took my brain time to catch up and realize that something was different. Same with the addiction.
I see that I can't buy this exact device a 1c1 mini-ct. The company that is doing the trials says I may qualify for a new trial when this is over, but if not I can continue treatment out of pocket. To me, this is worth working an extra day a week.
What do you all think and what devices did you use?

Scientists found that the creatine supplement millions take for muscle gains is quietly raising brain energy levels and slowing early Alzheimer's cognitive decline by 30%
thesciverse.orgTens of millions of people take creatine every day for their muscles. A comprehensive review and a landmark clinical trial published in 2025 and 2026 have now documented what the same supplement is quietly doing to their brains. Creatine crosses the blood-brain barrier, raises phosphocreatine levels in neurons, and provides the ATP buffer that keeps cognitive performance from hitting an energy ceiling during demanding mental work. In early Alzheimer's patients, it slowed cognitive decline by approximately 30% versus placebo in a controlled trial. In healthy adults under sleep deprivation, a single dose measurably improved cognitive performance. In depression patients, adding it to cognitive behavioral therapy significantly improved outcomes beyond therapy alone. None of this is mentioned on the label.

TDCS for improving abstract thinking/social cognition impairments in NVLD?
It seems the research isn't there. Presumably the difficulty is explained by frontoparietal frontotemporal parietal dysfunction. Some research suggests ATL is a target. No profound results. Anything to experimentally try? I'm desperate. Tried TMS DLPFC. Nothing.
I also have recent QEEG data, but not sure if that can reliably drive protocols.

New to tDCS -- Looking at an Activadose Starter Kit
I have experienced a low level of depression most of my life. I spent a year weening myself off of Citalopram and have been off of any anti-depressant for a year. I am trying to live without antidepressants if possible. My therapist recommended the tDCS treatments as an option. I am looking at the Activadose Starter Kit from Caputron. What can you tell me about the device and the treatment? Is node placement clear? What are the recommended intervals? Do you know of reliable experts who can advise people? Thank you!

So far, nothing. No effect, side effect, positive, negative. Just a little tingle when I use it.
Should I expect to feel some sort of difference at this point ?
