> Memory loss is a leading side affect but many people with drug resistant severe depression have benefited from ECT. sometimes you have to weigh the risks. Being suicidal everyday or take the risk of some memory loss.Many people have benefited from this procedure and begin to live a normal life again.

I agree with most of what you say, but finding good data on long-term outcomes is difficult, re: both side-effects and treatment success. Have you had an ECT experience, by any chance? Positive? Negative? Side-effects?
