That new medication I started didn't work for very long. It gave me a bit of a lift but the depression just came back. I'd pretty much exhausted medication options and I new the next step in terms of treatment would be ECT (electro-convulsive therapy). At one stage I wouldn't have considered such a drastic measure but by now I was willing to try anything. So I went into hospital 2 weeks ago and started the treatment. I've had 6 treatments and am having 3 more. They put you to sleep with a general anesthetic and then pass an electric current through your brain. It sounds barbaric but it does work. I'm feeling much better. The only question is whether I'll stay well once the treatments stop.
I'm off work til Sept 14 and I'm considering resigning and finding another job - one that's not so stressful. Ideally I'd like to work at the bookshop but unfortunately the shop doesn't make enough money to pay a decent wage. But I've got a month or so to figure out what to do. I'm listening to OK Computer by Radiohead. Such a good album.
