ECT has made a huge positive difference in my life. It got me out of a dark hole (created by the wrong meds) after only 6. Unfortunately, it wasn't a one-time cure. I have gone back & am currently on maintenance- but I have never felt this good in my life (of 34 years).
The main con is the memory loss. You don't lose everything, but it has definitely been a set-back (but worth it). Plus it is a little scary.
I just read "Shock" by Kitty Dukakis. I would recommend reading it.
