ECT treatment third time round the block

I have suffered from severe depressive episode 3 times in my life. Unfortunately it hit me again out of nowhere. These episodes are not hey, I am having a bad week. I am completely incapacitated and lay in bed weeks on end. I can’t eat, I feel like a zombie The loss of weight makes it all worse. The episodes always start the same slap and I am down. The suicidal thoughts are harder than the pain of every minute. I agreed to do it again. Actually it was my idea. I am currently in a clinic and well I pray it pulls me out of this zombie apocalypse, so I can go back to dealing with the lighter version of depression and get back to my other issues

@Susan Jane , i'm sorry your having to go through this again. Hang in there, this episode will pass once you've had the treatment and then like you say, you can work on other things then. Sending best wishes, support and care x

Hi @Susan Jane I have a diagnosis of "recurrent depression" so I know what it's like. I hope your treatment pulls you out of it. Best wishes.

The suicidal thoughts are so hard. The weight loss too. Glad you are getting the ECT that you seek.
