No bullsh1t, no exaggeration. This is my experience with ECT:
Not reading, not hearing, not “research”.
Experience. Reality.
*knock knock* Hear that? REALITY.
It helps and it hurts.
Calm and serenity are genuine positives to people who are intensely suffering. I know that.
The question is: how much are you suffering?
The second question is: how much are you willing to have your self (your personality, your beliefs, your CONVICTION) dulled in order to make your torment more bearable?
Real questions. My answers may not be yours. But those are the questions.
And they have to be your answers. On your terms, noone else’s.
