I have problems with depression, I've had it a very long time. I eat a combination of Lithium, Efexor, and vitamins B12 and folic acid that are supposed to help. I've done this for half a year, the lithium they say will take a year before they can evaluate. But if I don't get better or if I get worse there aren't too many options. I've tried several anti-depressants already.
I've heard much about ECT, some say it has ruined their life, but those aren't many, most get some help from it, however there are great risks with it, that I'm aware of. If I am offerd this I'm trying to decide what I should answer, so I'm trying to become as informed on the subject as I can.
Do you have any experience from ECT or have any wisdom to share on the subject?
