I read you saying you've tried a lot of meds and talk therapies, have you considered/tried ECT? It's the only thing that's done anything for my depression, even if it's only just a tiny bit.
Edit: There's another thread in this forum by newgal2 about ECT if you're curious. |
Thanks Breadfish, it really helps that you understand. One Pdoc suggested ECT but the one who knows me longer says it would at most be short term benefit and I have higher than average risk of confusion afterwards which may not resolve. I Can tell you I was gutted, he does use ECT but not in depression as longstanding as mine. (33 years). I hope your next birthday is better.
