Thank you ❤

I understand about getting out of your own head.

How's your breathing now? How far off normal? @outlander

Re: not coping

@outlander ECT is only once a day on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

The put you to sleep to do it so that is why I have to fast.

I am hoping it helps, my anxiety is very much hightened and scared that it won't help. Then what.....

I am glad the worst is over hun, I worry about you constantly and what you are going through. So much for someone so young, but you are doing a great job sis 💜

Re: not coping

@Snowie thank you so much for being here as I wasn't really sure what to do. Good luck with the ECT...

Re: not coping

Goodnight @NatureLover sleep well

@outlander I have only had 1 session of ECT so far so too early to tell. I am hoping it helps my depression. I don't know what happens next if this doesn't work. I think I am more scared of that then of the ECT itself.

How are you feeling now?
