I get regular maintenance ECT treatments for my depression, and have been for quite some time. I tend to cope with my pre-treatment anxiety with humor, so one time I brought a Pikachu sticker to see if they’d let me out it somewhere on the ECT cart.
P.S. If anyone’s curious about a patient perspective on ECT I’m open to questions.
Seems like the side effects are pretty serious. Though, guess you’ve weighed them against the benefits and found it worth it.
