  • Many of the critical comments here are based upon ignorance. ECT is most often used as a last-chance treatment for severe mental illness. The benefits far outweigh the side effects which run from moderate to minimal, especially when it saves the lives of suicidal people.

  • I'm sorry for your wife. I hope she get bether. I heard there was a implant in a area near the brain, that bwas a last alternative to depressed people. Regards.

  • I have seen my wife go through a number of suicidal episodes, drugged like a zombie and locked up in a ward for sparatic and violent behavior. ECT is only thing that has brought her back to a normal life. She has lost some memories, but I would trade the loss of memory for having normality back in our lives any day.

  • it's a crude, stupid and unecessary procedure.

  • It create damage brain forever. Mental institution's doctor like to torture patients to relieve the drepsseion of their lifes. There is alternative treatments, but this sick medicine likes to torture a poor guys, like they enjoyed to make lobotomy to people with any undesirable behavior. Why don't you fry your own brain with it?

  • ECT works for depression full stop. The main thing that holds ECT back is misinformed people like yourself spouting beliefs as truths henceforth creating a negative stigma around an otherwise safe and effective treatment

  • This is a sack full of crap. This woman is lying, or being paid of extrol this soul snatching torturous so-called "therapy", used by the Nazis for "experimentation" on Jews and other Nazi Prisoners. The majority of people who have endured this horredous Nazi-style torture report that they have lost their personality, their motivation, their gifts and talents and their life!
