ECT Treatment For Major Depression
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone else had ECT treatments before? I've had almost 100 (over a period of years)

Gutierrezjoh59, I am really not sure how to answer your question. Honestly, I've suffered with depression since I was three. At least I think that is when I first was aware of it. I do know you fight harder when your younger. And can snap out of your feelings for periods of time. I find the older I get, the less energy I have to fight. So to answer your question, no I really don't think depression is curable, just manageable...

I have been on maintenance once a month for about 2 years and I feel like they really help me.
