I had a horrible series of ECT'S - 77 to be exact, yes, that's right 77! Did it help with the depression -NO. Basically, I was medication resistant for major depression and I think they ran out of remedies, and threw me to the ECT wolves.

My long-term memory is shot. If I didn't have journals pre-ECT, or people telling me this and that, I would only know life from 2003 until now.

You would think after ECT #25 that obviously they weren't working. Why did I agree to 77? I was hoping for a "cure", just like chemo for a cancer patientS. Each ECT I would have, I prayed that would be the one that would "cure" me. WRONG.
