I've had 8 treatments in the past (Monday, Wednesday, Friday ). I'm glad I tried it, I was desperate, but I think meds is what caused my improvement, not the ECT. I was suffering from Depression but what I was in for was schizophrenia, and hallucinations. Once I was back stabilized on meds, I was naturally less depressed. I still suffer from Depression, but meds help, and normally the only time it gets really bad is when I'm PMSing. I also had severe memory issues from treatments, but am now back to normal. My memory is still horrible, but it was way worse right after ECT and I lost a lot from the year prior to ECT that never came back.
