ECT or ElectroConvulsive Therapy
What is ECT?
Some might know the therapy, as electroshock or shock therapy and it conjures up some medieval looking room with an electric chair in it. If you had it done years ago, it might have been close to that image. Yet, today the procedure is much more sedate but still is very controversial. If you follow what medical science says about it, then you may lean to the opinion that it is safe and works to treat depression and other disorders. But if you listen to reviews of the procedure, you would have a very different thought of it.
I have never had ECT done… If I am ever offered to have it done… I must answer NO! I am not saying it’s a bad thing and I’m sure the benefits can out weigh the side-effects. Yet, life is shocking enough for me and I need to hold on to every last memory I can for as long as I can.
** So, what do you think about it?
Check in tomorrow as we learn about the new type of schizophrenia.
