When I wanted ECT, I didn't really want ECT as much as I wanted to have something under my belt that would tell people to cut me a little slack in life. I felt the world was closing in on me, and If I had ECT, then people might understand the sevarity of what I was feeling.
I was tired of going to people and saying "I have depression", and them telling me "yeah, me too".
I wanted something that I could say, "no, you don't understand, I've had shock treatment"
In hindsight, I would have done it, and (for me at least) it would have been a very dumb move.
What meds are you *currently* taking ?Linkadge
