I’m more depressed than ever
I’ve been getting an initial series of 20 bilateral ect treatments for depression. I’ve completed 17 and feel worse mentally than I ever have before. When I started my PHQ9 was 21. It got down to 14 in the first few weeks but has since risen to 24. I was so hopeful for it to work but now that it seems like it’s not going to I have no idea what to do. I feel like I have exhausted all of my options at this point. My team keeps telling me to not lose hope but that is so hard.
