My special place

Had ECT this morning @Captain24 @Bow Number 6 done.

So am meant to have 9 left.

I hope it went ok @Snowie. what’s been happening this afternoon after it? Does it make you tired?

It does make me tired @Captain24 @creative_writer @Bow

I honestly cannot see me doing 9 more sessions of this. I thought I would see a bigger improvement already and I don't really feel much different. What is the point in continuing if it isn't going to help me.

I just am over it. I feel like I have no support. I have no community mental health team or anyone I can ring if things are not going well. I feel so alone, so sad, so done.

Is there a local community mental health team @Snowie that you could possible try and connect with?

I’ve never had ECT @Snowie so I don’t really ‘get it’. Are you suppose to see and improvement already?

If you need help can you ring the mental health triage line? Would they be able to get you into community health?

@Captain24 ECT helps with mood and depression. I have had it before and saw an improvement but maybe I just expected more this time. Maybe it is just me.

@creative_writer @Bow Because I live in a rural town I don't have access to anyone close. The closest is a 45min drive away.

Also because I am work cover I think it is different and have never used community health before.

But maybe I am just making up excuses for myself. Maybe I just need to take prn and go to bed.

I’m sorry that h is opposed @Snowie that makes it tough. I can’t believe you’re still on work cover. So much for “early resolution”.

I don’t know what to say but I am by your side hon 💜

Rural does make things harder @Snowie.

I’m sitting with you.
