Straightjacket-in-a-padded-room makes perfect sense. From what I've read online, a lot of pdocs don't understand that *whatever it's called* is not willed by people with BD, but happens to us. I think it might be (probably is) connected to racing thoughts.
I think it's a good idea not to try to make sense of it. Ironically, I get stuck on getting stuck...
I wish my mind would stop thinking about it.
I agree that ECT will almost surely help the symptom.
