Yeah that was me. i had 14 treatments in all and id say it made me feel about 20% better in all. But they kept having a problem with my blood pressure getting too high during the treatments, so they said i had to get my BP under control before they could do anymore treatments. And i think i finally got on the right BP. Which is good because most of the benefits i had from ECT are already about gone. So I'm going to see if i can have more ECT treatments done.
And overall, going by my experience, id recommend ECT the main negative effect from it was some memory loss. but it was very manageable. Besides, I'm kinda used to having a terrible memory.
But thats doesn't mean it won't have more severe negative effects on someone else who undergoes ECT.
