Maintanence ECT is effective, once every 8 weeks?

Posted by PCB on September 15, 2019, at 17:26:27

Hey Everyone!

Really considering maintenance ECT. I have been reading about ECT recently. Internet states it is low dose and no memory loss except for the day of treatment. Also states seventy percent of med resistant patients improved. Maintenance ECT is one session every 1 to 3 months and you can work the next day. What?

So I can be improved or free of depression by getting one ECT every few months and be free of medications. I have on meds trials for many years feeling depressed, when I could have gotten ECT had my depression much improved. Maybe I would have been married, had children and felt normal. Did I waste 20 years of my life on med trial (I know many of us here are in the same situation)?
