So that you know, it's possible that your care team will want to keep you on your meds even while undergoing ECT. I have repeatedly requested stopping my meds to always get told no. Of course, if you take one of the anti-convulsants used for bipolar disorder as well, then you may need to stop. So I guess it depends on what you're taking.
