Along with my bipolar, I have generalized anxiety disorder, PTSD, and OCD. I have had many ECTs, which are usually given in a series then spaced out over a longer time as maintenance. ECT helped my depression, at the cost of muscle spasms and memory problems. I think the only thing that really helped my anxiety was working with my pdoc on meds, xanax in my case. I think working with my T would help, but mine doesn't seem very effective. Hopefully yours will be better.
