I'm new to this, and I'm not sure how it works. I just posted a message to one of the other boards, but I think my message is better suited for "psycho babble" (this one)
Anyway, I'm looking to communicate with people that have had ect.
I'm considering this option as I have disabling depression and can't seem to respond (long term) to any of the psychiatric meds.
During a "depressive episode," I usually can't get out of bed for 6 weeks at a time.
I can't imagine that any treatment could make matters worse.
I understand that memory loss is almost inevitable, but after spending 6 weeks in bed, I don't think there would be much to remember anyway.
I've heard miracle stories about this procedure, but I've never talked directly to someone who has actually had it.
Just looking for answers,
