Got offered ECT for depression treatment, anyone have any experience with it? Should I do it?

No experience with ETC but you may consider seizures instead, you can provoke them and they seem to be doing quite the same.
Theoretically it looks like it has quite the same effects at least.
It is supposedly the most effective treatment for long-term depression. I'm interested myself.
I hope you enjoy being turned into a bumbling maniac with faulty memory at around age 30, if you prefer that to being ''depressed'' then go for it.

This page goes into it a little bit. ctrl+f electroconvulsive therapy. He did write this as an intern so take it with a grain of salt. I don't think he's revisited the subject since then either or I'd link you to that.

Eerily accurate description.
How did you come to it I wonder?
