I've tried multiple medications and different therapies. I'm still like this. Nothing works.

My T wants me to consider ECT. The idea scares me a bit, but more than anything I don't want to get my hopes up and then shut down. It happens every time.

He also told me about a long-term IP program I would go to while undergoing the therapy. That doesn't sound like something I'm willing to do, either.

How many of you have undergone ECT? Did it help in the long-term or did the relief dissipate later on?
