I have 2 questions for anyone. Has anyone ever had ECT. I've had over 70 treatments in 2 or 3 yrs. I have had memory and cognitive problems ever since. Ever since I was 12 or 13 I have had issues with food. I have binged and purged, taken laxatives, starved myself. I don't look at food for nutritional value, but as calories and friend or foe. I have mentioned it in passing to my therapist. I'm afraid to say anything because of people being judgmental and the heavy criticism I have recieved. I appreciate anything anyone has.

Hi Robert31

Yes, I've had ECT. Not nearly as many as you, but enough to get me back into the game of life. My side effects weren't as long term as it seems yours are. I'm sorry you're struggling with this. I'm uncertain of the 2nd question...Does anyone else look at food as friend or foe? Hmmm, I would say I do. Seems to be a constant battle to decide what/when to eat for emotional reasons, not so much as its the right thing to do. Eekss, I think I may have confuzzled myself...

Take care,
Dee
