Day 10: reducing even more


Poking around on the FW website, I found another official-sounding document, entitled Clinical Recommendations for the Fisher Wallace Stimulator.
This document states: 
“Generally, in a patient with insomnia, anxiety, depression, or in fact any major psychiatric disorder, we would start him/her on level one (1), once or twice a day. The machine is automatically set to run for 20 minutes. Most moderate to mild conditions in outpatient practice would start with 20 minutes a day for the first week or two. 
If the patient has a more severe condition and is willing to comply with twice a day treatment for 20 minutes each time, then it may be appropriate to start them with sessions two times a day at the initiation of treatment.”
I decided to take a break from my FWS so my brain would calm down and perhaps return to a baseline state.
