I suffer from major depression and I have been for 6 years. I have been on an assortment of medications and I'm doing ECT right now which is shock therapy and I have done 15 treatments and I am still depressed. I'm just scared I'm going to have to do this for the rest of my life. I mean it can't be good on the brain. I have short term memory loss all the time. It does help with the depression, I just thought it would help more is all. I just feel lost and frustrated.
