I couldn't tell you ... my family doesn't give a sh*t. As far as my mental is concerned ... I have to deal with it. I was in the hospital for over 2 months and they came to visit me twice. Guess it was too much for them to handle. *huge roll of eyes*.
*Pauses for a minute*
Well if the ECT helped, you wouldn't be depressed and so the irritability etc. would go away as well ... hopefully. :)

> I think in the case of trying ECT and worrying about severe memory loss is to put your trust into someone, such as family, that really understands what you are going through, problems you are having before ECT, how you are acting and handling your depression. Then maybe they can help you evaluate the success or failure of treatment. It is hard, after mental health issues go on for so long, you loose your faith and trust in people. When in fact it seems that we need just the opposite. I find myself becoming much less trusting, more cynical, less caring of others and their issues, the harder it gets....the harder it gets....Will ECT help someone to break out of this cycle?
