Zapping away loneliness: brain stimulation trial targets mild depression

NCT ID NCT06517121

First seen Jan 27, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can reduce feelings of loneliness and improve mood in people with subthreshold depression (mild depressive symptoms that don't meet full criteria for major depression). Researchers will enroll 204 adults and give them multiple sessions of personalized tDCS, measuring changes in loneliness and depressive symptoms. The goal is to see if this safe, painless method can ease emotional distress without medication.
