I had unilateral ECT two years ago -- not brief pulse, I don't beleive. I had absolutely no problem with it. No memory loss, except briefly when I woke up from the anesthesia and couldn't recall where I was. But it didn't really help me. I didn't feel less depressed, though some people swear by it. I stopped after 10 treatments because I was getting this weird feeling like deja vu, but it was instead this constant sensation that I needed to remember something. It went away when I stopped the ECT.
