To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download ECT for depression? I’ve suffered from depression for most of my life. Hospitalizations, countless med changes, use of shrinks & psychologists, groups, you get the picture. Seizure activity & dispite the fact I only use perscribed meds AS perscribed, and no alchohol, no relief. I’m HIV+ though I’ve come to acceptance with that & am responding well to treatment. The depression however IS what’s going to kill me. Wellbutrin was working great for the past few years but with the latest seizure the Doc discontinued it. I’m scared and desparate. While I have a great support system, the pain is just unbearable. I’m only 39. The only thing I haven’t tried is ECT [electroconvulsive therapy]. Thoughts, ideas, please help. Comments
