ECT #6

My ECT #6 was today.  My head is clearer this time at the end and it is easier to type these sentences out.  The actual ECT is still very fuzzy and foggy.   It is weird that what I end up with is a clearer head, but the event is very groggy.


I am liking the way this ECT has me feeling.  I am sleeping better at night, and also taking naps during the day.  Now, I am taking 1/2 the sedation drugs at night and looking to cut those out soon.


So... overall great report from ECT and I am doing well.

So very happy to hear its going well and your doing well.

And the goal is for you to have no memory of the event.

It sounds like your brain is beginning to respond to meds more normally and that's a really good thing.

Thor, sounds like you now clearly see why it needed to be a series of ECT to really see it's effect. So happy for the new you that is emerging. Kind of the phoenix arising from the ashes. Happy Dance hugs.
