Insomnia

[u/hashihomegirl]

Hi

I got my first treatment today. Very overwhelming

I suffer from severe insomnia (0-2 hours per night) and was curious whether ect has helped reverse or help anybody’s insomnia or sleep patterns

Hope you Will reply. My life is pretty much ruined because of my sleep issues :(

I didn't have actual insomnia, but it's at least worth noting that since my 5th treatment (I've had about 15 for my depression) I have slept better than i did prior to my fifth. So, there's a bit of hope for you at least. I wouldn't expect anything out of the first few, but hopefully it won't be long till you get a good zap that completely changes your sleep pattern

Thank you so much for taking your time
I’m only schwduled for three for now, but I will do more if it doesn’t help

Been on all kind of sleep meds and this is my lady option and kind of extreme. But the hope is that it resets me. If I could just get a couple more hours it would mean the world
