Don't feel bad about needing ECT and meds. We need what we need to remain mentally well. It just is what it is. You're definitely NOT a loser! Don't say that.
Oh. Wanted to add. I can sorta relate to the situation you have with your brother. It's kind of like that with my sister and I.

We were very close growing up, grew apart, and now she doesn't even bother returning my texts! It's terrible. I try not to feel bad, but it's hard. I know she's struggling with anxiety and depression though. And she's into drugs and alcohol and partying still and never settled down, so we have nothing in common, but I still miss her.
