Default Can one Really Recover from the Horrors of ECT?

I had ECT treatment about a month ago and have suffered severely ever since. I had severe depression and was hospitalized three times before the treatment. And though my mood has lifted, I'm extremely concerned about not only severe memory loss but about the possibility that the treatment may have caused irreversible brain damage as I have noticed daily tasks to be extremely difficult ever since. I guess what I'm wondering is whether my cognitive functions will improve with time or if I'm going to be like this for the rest of my life. Do people who have experience severely crippling effects from ECT ever make a full recovery?
