"80% will be back to where they started within about 6 to 8 months."
In 6 to 8 months, 100% Who get no help from meds/therapy will get progressively worse and wish they were dead, or worse, act on their wish.
Look, I always respect your posts on this board, and I'm not trying to start a war here.
All I'm saying is that my shrink is an experienced and compassionate person, who actually is jaded with the big pharma mentality.He has offered me ECT for years, and I resisted. Actually I have no immediate plans to try it yet,\
but if he tells me he has several succesful professionals who have benefitted greatly from it, why woudn't I believe him. He's also had zero ect patients with permanent memory problems.Anthony
