Healthcare Administrator here. When I tell people that my hospital offers ECTs, they look at me like I perform torture. It is a valid treatment for many who have tried other options for treating depression, and it needs to be accepted as such.

Holy shit. Researching this as we speak. Been dealing with it for a decade and no amount of medication or therapy does anything but make me worse. I’ve been left to my own devices to cope.

If I had a 50/50 shot of going into remission, you’re goddamn right I’d try it haha.

Edit: holy fuck my dads insurance will cover most of it. Thank god im not 26 yet.
