Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
ECT is a good option and for depression around 7-10 sessions may be required. It may not help you with OCD and anxiety but depression will certainly come down.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
