Side effects of ECT
I suffer from Depression and Anxiety. My psychiatrist suggested Electro Convulsive therapy ( ECT). I have taken 6 sessions of ECT so far. 3 sessions in a span of 10 days. And after a couple of months, 3 sessions in a span of 2 months. I feel that I became forgetful and I'm not able to analyze anything properly. Do ECT sessions affect the intellectual abilities of a person? If yes then how can I remedy my situation?

Query related to mental health
Can anxiety be genetic? Like I get panic for no reason. I used to be so mentally strong but lately I think I've become vulnerable and I get anxious sometimes for no reason. I'm on medication but still sometimes it happens for no reason.

Chronic insomnia
I've not slept for more than 2hrs/night in more than a month. I wake up exhausted (obviously), unable to focus on work, or exercise, etc. I've always had insomnia, since childhood. But this time it's a long spell, I'm desperate. Tried almost everything (yoga, meditation, melatonin, homeopathy, mushrooms) apart from heavy duty sleep medication.
Who should I see regarding my condition? Any tips please? Happy to consult too.

Dreams and withdrawal
I stopped lexapro 6 days ago and had very very strange dreams tonight. It's extremely strong themed and repeated linked dreams. I'm not anxious or worried. I also experience complete joy and happiness before bedtime today.
I started doing Sudarshan kriya yoga - breathing exercises 2 weeks ago and I'm basically doing well with no anxiety symptoms.
So I went cold turkey with my SSRI (taking since 2016). Is this dreams something common during withdrawal? If I want to come out of SSRI, should I accept that the dreams are not something harmful and won't make me maniac?
