Hi mafub,
I havent had ECT but I have a little insight into it as my step dad was a psych nurse for 30 years and was incharge of administering it. From what I understand it is like re-booting your brain.
He is a firm believer that it works and had seen many of his chronic patients (who had been in the hospital for many many years) become out paitents and go on to live much better lives. The other bonus is that it doesn't ruin your health like many long term drugs do.
Let us know how you go x
