@Snowie things have been a bit chaotic on my end.

I’m happy ECT has helped. I know it does help many people. D’s sporting event on Sunday sounds exciting 😊

That all sounds like good news @Snowie. I'm very happy for you my friend.

Well 1 more ECT as an inpatient and then back to monthly outpatient ones. Looking forward to my own bed 😴 Definitely being discharged on Saturday. 

My mum asked me yesterday if I was "better" now. Didn't know what to tell her. I know she is just worried but at the same time I don't think we are just magically better. I don't feel 'cured'.  Yes my MH has improved but at the same time I know how easily it can slip again.  Yes I'm hoping to never come back in here as an inpatient, but I have hoped for that in the past and look where I have ended.

So when I go home do I just act normal again? What is normal?

Still lots to think about.

Hey @Snowie  my dear friend. So glad to read that you are doing better and that this course of ECT has been of benefit. And yay to going home!! 🎉 on ward and up ward my friend! 💕

Such good news @Snowie ! I don’t think we “get better” or cured of mh but I do believe we can be more stable and learn to deal with our triggers before they take over. That’s my theory 😊
