Some conversations just need to be had. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is one of those conversations.

Second Treatment
Friday was my second treatment. The headaches and nausea were somewhat better managed, but I was still still on my ass for the rest of the day. I am also starting to notice the memory impairments. Memory will get a little worse with each treatment. So it kind of feels like I'm glimpsing into my near future because I still have enough of my memory to catch myself at times and notice I'm forgetting. That will be a luxury that I will not have much longer. Other than that I feel pretty good. Feeling positive for the most part. Albeit, already a bit cabin feverish-ish. Keep trying to convince myself that the time off will be good for me, but not being able to drive myself anywhere on my own will take some getting used to. Luckily there is lots for me to work on around the house and I have lots of time for exercising. My mom and I get along great which helps the time pass by easily enough. Yes, off to a good start. I do feel different, even if ever so slightly.
