      The ATA is doing a webinar in September with the people behind this therapy. They said they were going to reveal the results then.

      Heck yes I would do this, and im considering doing ECT at a hospital for my T, this is only approved for depression, they induce a small seizure in the brain to change its functioning, which worries me, VNS seems better than that.. ECT might work also but I'm less optimistic compared to VNS. One thing that's strange is when I wake up in the middle of the night and my eyes are closed I see a strobe light in the corner of my eyes, I'm pretty sure this is minor epilepsy?? Since I've heard T and Epilepsy might be related..

      Yes, if you are a member. I think they keep up the last 4 or 5 webinars.

      You can't access the webinars free of charge later on, it's just like you said, you need to be a paying member of ATA or pay up the individual webinar fee.

      They use this as incentive to increase membership.

      EDIT: oops, I had this window open a little too long (@whale beat me to it).

      I wouldn't be surprised if it's mostly old information. They most likely did this to get the word out about the upcoming clinical trial.
