Yes, honestly I have no idea how more, artificial brain excitation would help, but apparently it does for some. It probably does help to untangle before naturally rewiring, so to speak. Maybe with time...
I hope eventually it benefits you or at least your memory is as good as it used to be. There should probably be better research done to establish which groups might benefit and which won't, before such things are tried.
I personally would at least try everything (aside from the regular meds) to protect your brain: vitamin E, acetylcysteine, methylfolate and methylcobalamin do all help a bit. It is a safe bet. Much safer than ECT.
Hope it might help!
