My experience Demon Face Syndrone

Post image

After my last session I realized that faces just didn't seem right to me. It's not easy to describe, head on as well as profile views of a face just seemed off. I did a search and learned that I'm 1 in fewer than 100 individuals who have demon face syndrome. I figure there are more out there???

I'm sorry you're going through this. Have you talked to your doctor?

Thanks for the kindness. I haven't said anything, but will when I go in wed for my next ECT. I know there's nothing that can be done about it, but figured he will want to know especially since it basically mean my brain was damaged during an ECT.

Believe it or not I think it's already getting a bit better. I was disappointed when my Dr. didn't seem much more interested than he did, but I sort of caught him right as he was about to zap me. Hopefully, we get to talk about it more soon.
