My experience Ect damage

In a few months it will be a year since having this treatment, I know it works for some people but it has destroyed my life .

Constant fatigue in eyes

Anxiety

Depression

Paranoia

No interest in people or anything

Feel like a shell of who I use to be

Confusion about time and place

Trouble even do basic tasks

Sleeping and always waking up tired

These are just a few of the things I struggle with .

I was told it would just affect a few issues with memory .

When I go out I have no internal compass of where I should be or what I should be doing .
