Electroshock is torture

Sue Clark-Wittenberg, director of the Wittenberg Center to End Electroshock in Ottawa, Canada is an electroshock survivor who is appealing to Amnesty International
to deem electroshock (ECT) as torture.

Sue is a torture victim of electroshock. Dr. Peter R. Breggin, a psychiatrist from NY State wrote an article recently re ECT called "Disturbing News for Patients and Shock Doctors Alike" which proves ECT always causes brain damage 100% of the time.

In America, electroshock is not deemed as torture by Amnesty International. ECT is being given more and more especially to women with post partum depression and to women over 60 years of age. Many people all over the world are working to ban electroshock universally.

Yearly stats for ECT given:
Ontario, Canada - 14,000 ECTs given
USA - 100,000 Americans get ECT
UK - 50,000 ECT given
Worldwide - 1 to 2 million people get ECT

Electroshock is a crime against humanity
