I've had several rounds of ECT, plus a whole lot of maintenance treatments in between, probably totaling 40-50 treatments overall. I always have short term memory problems - this last time a week or two ago it took me over an hour to remember where I live. That usually goes away fairly quickly with no serious long term effects. I do have some long term memory problems - I used to consider myself pretty smart, turned down full ride offers to colleges, National Merit Scholar, all that kind of thing - and now I can't remember the names of people I work with. I don't know if that's ECT, just the effects of my BP/PTSD/OCD/GAD, my meds, or just getting older. ECT has done enough to break me out of major depressive episodes that I choose to do it as necessary even with the side effects. I hope yours went as well.
