I know the restless feeling Annie... and I do the same thing as far as sitting in front of the TV with my laptop. Interestingly enough I don't watch the TV and I don't use the laptop really, I just click every now again on random things. It's like with all of the internet, I can't find anything to do! It's just that I physically and mentally feel like I'm all over the place and losing it. The times when I've been able to, exercise has helped, even if it was a light stretching exercise with some deep breathing. Other times (rare b/c I never have energy) getting on a stationary bike or treadmill was helpful. I understand how difficult exercise can be at these times. It's like telling someone with no legs to run a mile. It's just basically an impossibility. Thats why I suggestd just getting up and doing some light stretches... break yourself out of your routine of sitting and mulling things over and becoming increasingly restless and agitated. Sometimes just breaking the routine can provide even a little relief. And yes, I think that even missing 1 day of meds can contribute to that feeling for you. I know it does for me. Take care and hopefully your ECT goes well this week.
