all i know i have a friend who took ECT it helped him
9 years ago, he seems slightly different but maybe I never knew the real him before, only the person he thought everyone wanted him to be, I felt it was nervewracking when he went through the op (don't know how he felt about it tho as I wasn't allowed contact, this is because for him it meant that only those who were visiting him regulary were recommended as I was told it was easier for him to handle a few rather than lots of people all the time... I was at Uni when it happened so that's all I knew...)so how much more nervewracking it must have been for him + his family!
& it took a while for him to really get back into things but he's doing great now, good job, renting with flatmate, good church life too... So yes it works.
