Hi, I'm Lilly M. I'm raising funds to help cover some important medical bills for my close friend Tessa Moore. She's been struggling with severe depression despite all the effort she's put into fighting it: antidepressants, healthy habits, sleep, managing POTS, etc.

None of it has been helping.

The best option so far has been Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), which is in-network for her insurance but still very pricey. I've done the math, and to both account for the maximum session count and price, the deductible, and other bills that will come alongside it... She only needs several hundred to get started and more over time to keep those treatments going. It's helped a relative of hers that dealt with a very similar condition.

The way TMS works is by stimulating electrical activity in mood and emotion-related areas of the brain using electromagnetic fields that induce electrical currents. It's FDA-approved too.

I care about Tessa so much and want her to thrive. I hope you're able to help make that happen. I myself am a college student, so I'm limited in what I can do to help. That's why I started this fundraiser for her.

A little more about Tessa:

Tessa loves Magic the Gathering, playing Warframe, and grew up playing Destiny and Destiny 2. She also loves D&D, board games, Squishmallows, and frogs. She's a really good storyteller. For work, she's a call service rep for Marriott. Her favorite region is the Pacific Northwest and she plans on living there one day. Tessa's company is enjoyed by many and she is an amazing friend who is always willing to go the extra mile for people she cares about.

Additionally, any extra donations are welcome since they'll help support her current financial hardships, including bills along the way, groceries, car repairs, etc.

Furthermore, other expenses will be covered in the overall goal outside of the first 2500$
