My Friend who completed the ECT protocol took lots of pills one night and ended up in the ER. He suffered brain damage. I visited him in the hospital.

And I saw him at his home months later. He was still anxious and with the
brain damage he was confused as well.

I do not see ECT as a viable option for me. The protocol for
the treatments is rigorous -- lots of hard work scheduling and
getting rides back and forth to treatments (because one cannot
drive themselves home after that of course.)

And one cannot drive during this whole period anyway because
memory is not good and people tend to get lost driving. For a while some cannot even figure out how to return home.
