Different Anon. Her situation sounds horribly toxic and as if her parents made her dependant on them in every area of life. They probably had meant well, in some wicked abusive way, to force her into treatment so "she'd get better" and "have motivation". I hope your friend does get better and her situation is improved.

On the electroshock treatment - the side effect is indeed memory loss, but short-term. Mostly it's just confusion. Never heard of someone dealing with long-term memory effect, but mind is a tricky thing and doctors can botch things up.

My uncle got electroshock therapy a few years ago when he was suicidally depressed. It was horribly botched. He didn't remember his kids afterwards, his marriage was destroyed, and his family is left in debt. On the plus side, he's still alive, which shouldn't be taken lightly, but it took a tremendous toll on all of them.

Yeah, it's a really difficult decision to make - for some people it's life-saving and amazing, for others life-saving but awful and for some just awful. But if you have medication-resistant suicidal depression, the alternatives are pretty shit too.
