I have been having ECT done for the past 5 or so years. I have it done about every 5 weeks. It has helped me so much in dealing with my depreesion. I have noticed that it isn't lasting as long as it used to. But I still think it is the best thing that has happened for me. I also have had very little memory loss. I recommed it do everyone who is struggling with depression and meds are just not working.
