For anyone who doesn't know what ECT is, can you explain what the experience is and how
it's meant to heal?
Yeah, you go in, you got your hospital gown, they knock you out, strap you down, put a
bite guard in your mouth, electrocute you, it helps with the neuroplasticity in your
brain.
Is it painful?
Are you not feeling anything?
The first couple of times it is, because they're still figuring out how much Tylenol or Toradol
to give you afterwards.
The first time I woke up and it was the most sharp pain I'd ever experienced in the side
And what is that pain?
What do they tell you that is?
Well, it would be the soreness from getting electrocuted.
I mean, that sounds so scary.
Yeah, it was.
And the side effects are gnarly, I mean, I definitely had days completely not in my head
at all.
I'd have, you know, friends visit me and I don't remember even seeing them, I don't remember
them coming by.
I have evidence that a friend came by because she brought me a bag of vapes just before
I quit vaping.
But I don't remember her being here at all.
I don't remember the conversations we had.
You know, amnesia was one of the primary side effects of that.
