Hi rz,
Is it ok if I ask you the same questions that I asked alchemy? I no that everyone is different and that everyone responds differently to different treatments but just wondered if there could be any reason why you had such a bad response to it when alchemy didn't. Would you be ok in answering my questions below? Although I'm sure if there was any correlations with people who respond to ECT and those who don't they would have worked that one out by now but if you could just humour me.
I hope you are ok (depression wise).
What kind of illness were you suffering from prior to having ECT, unipolar depression, bipolar depression, Schitzophrenia?What symptoms were you experiencing, were you catatonic? Did you have any anxiety? Were you still able to function?
What was your cognition like prior to having ECT, were you still able to express yourself articulately?
What kind of ECT did you have, unilateral or bilateral?
How many treatments of ECT did you have before responding to it?
What meds had you tried prior to having ECT and what meds were you on after it?
Thanks.....Denise
