> Thanks Ilene, did the ECT help you at all? What sort of depression did you have? And is anything helping you now?
>The ECT didn't help me. I've been gradually feeling better, but I'm not sure if that's due to meds or other things.
I've had memory problems since the ECT. I think some of that is from the depression, too.
I think ECT is worth trying if meds don't work. It works for a lot of people. There's no way of knowing beforehand if it will work for you or not.
I have unipolar depression, probably what's called "atypical".
