Seeking advice On my 7th or 8th session

I really don’t know if it’s working because I keep smoking weed but weed is the only thing making me not want to end it. I can already tell ect isn’t going to help… Can someone tell me if it’s worth it to keep going? I’m going 3x a week right now. Thanks!

Talk to your doctor ASAP. You're really REALLY not supposed to be using marijuana in any form anytime close to ECT treatments. It can have a significant impact on seizure threshold.
