I have two treatments a week. I experience some amnesia, but not much. I feel better after the treatments that day, and I'm eating and drinking again (I had quit doing both), but I haven't noticed much other improvements and in some ways I've even worsened.

I have to be in the hospital at 8:30 (AM) for treatments.

To me the whole going-to-the-hospital is more anxiety provoking than the ECT itself, but I have survived medical torture and have PTSD and iatrophobia (doctor phobia) as a result of that, and I had my leg amputated (as a result of damage done by the torture) which was a far scarier procedure. And the nurses and doctors are all very kind.
