Our stories
When my grandmother had her first seriously depressive episode and as an 18 year old I was the only family member in the same city, I was asked at the hospital if it was OK to give her ECT. I was so upset that it was up to me to decide. I talked with her and she was terrified. I remembered a friend had been a nursing sister and talked to her about it. I wish I had known other carers and had a place like this to ask about the experiences of others. It would have reassured me and most importantly my lovely grandmother and helped us make the right choice.
