Hi @ellie2000,

Sertraline doesn't contain magic shrooms, not to my knowledge anyway. Drugs wise, I don't have much experience but I think it does depend on the drug and how use to it the body is. So someone who regularly takes drugs would find it harder to get off them than someone who only took them once or twice. 

By electric shock therapy do you mean electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), that sends electric currents through the brain?

I do, how do ECT work nd benefits, is it dangerous erm taking 500mg rather than 150mg? just thoughts of doom passing. I struggle, and the ppl who I tlk to don't understand. negative head voices make me unhappy

Sounds like you feel you are struggling currently @ellie2000. 

In regards to dosages for drugs and medicine your pharmacist, GP, or the pamphlet that comes with the with the medicine will tell you when and how you should take it. 

Electroconvulsive therapy is only used or recommended in very specific circumstances. ECT involves sending an electric current to the brain.  The current then stimulates the brain and can sometimes help reduce symptoms of depression. ECT always takes place within a hospital under anaesthetic and with a specialist doctor. It’s only used in very specific circumstances and often after a variety of other treatments have been tried.
