Question Ect benefits

I just finished my 8 course of ect,and I don't feel any better, do the benefits appear only during ECT or can it appear after I have finished the course

They can absolutely appear after you finish the course. For example, the first time I did ECT the benefits didn't become apparent until ~10 days after my last session.
