I don't really feel down because I can't really feel much of any emotion. I can't feel pleasure, loneliness, love, sadness. All I can really feel is fear, angst, and a lot of frustration. I've tried all the anti depressants my doctor can think of and now she is telling me ECT as a last resort for my treatment resistant anhedonia (inability to feel simple pleasures).
Most antidepressants blunt your affect and I do not need that. I need something to elevate my emotions and I am wondering if ECT has helped any of you regain some of your emotions and brought back the zest of life.
Thanks for any information you can offer.
