I saw my psychiatrist yesterday and we decided that I would stop the maintenance ECT after the next two scheduled treatments (once every 4 weeks) so my last one will be early Oct and I will see her for another appointment the second week of Nov. She said if I run into trouble we can schedule more treatments although if it has been too long, I might have to have a series of 3 treatments in a week and go back to weaning down on treatments.
I have been having ECT since the end of May a year ago so I have had more than year of stability. I am a bit worried about stopping treatments.
