No use leh. And I cannot kick or scold anybody. Not nice to the person, though I know I will feel damn good after that.Originally posted by starblue:find someone to kick maybe?? or scream into your pillow. and ratty, dun tell me you wanna be my pillow also ok??
Everything looks ugly to me. I look out to the window, all the trees and ppl on the street look horrible, dunno why. I tried to cool down to think of some pleasant thoughts and I will end up getting all the negative thoughts coming in.
I really hate to go thru this one week in a month. -
Depression treatment is a 3-pronged approach:
1) Drug treatment
2) Psychotherapy (counselling)
3) +/- Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)
The first 2 does not require further elaboration. What is more interesting is the third treatment, ECT. ECT is usually reserved only for drug-resistant severe cases of depression and also in cases where rapid treatment is required (such as in situations where there is a very real risk of the patient committing suicide).
ECT involves putting the patient under General Anesthesia, then positioning 2 ECT electrodes on the patient's scalp. EEG electrodes are also attached to monitor brain activity. A current is then passed thru the ECT electrodes through the brain, which will 'reset' the electrical activity of the brain, inducing a seizure in the process. Post-seizure, the patient is woken up.
ECT has been shown to be highly effective in treating severe cases of
depression. The only real potential side effect of ECT is amnesia (loss of memory), but this drawback is usually outweighed by the benefits of ECT therapy.
Those who are interested can read up more on 'Electroconvulsive Therapy' on the net. -
