Thanks Ozland,
I know there is no guarantee that ECT will help my depression and my psychiatrist has not recommended it, in fact she says it might lift my mood for about a month and then I would be back in the doldroms again with a few less brain cells. But I'm not sure what I have to lose anymore and if I had unilateral then the risks wouldn't be so great. I know I probably sound like I'm deluding myself but sometimes deluding myself is the only thing that keeps me going.
I know LCat said it has left her memory really messed up but she still is able to work and she did say that her depression isn't so bad.
Denise
