See this kind of shock might make a person feel happier and energetic. Current electroshock therapy on the other hand only destroys peoples brains without providing them help.

If electroshock were in any way supposed to be therapeutic it would use a gag lighter or pen instead of deliberator like shocks directly to the brain. See with a gag lighter or pen a person has the choice of picking the thing up and holding it down. A person would be able to control the intensity of the shock by letting go of the gag object at any time.

Wow... you convinced me and turned around my YEARS of study with just 5 lines of text... I'm going to ADMIRE the nazis now!!!!

wow, you obviously know nothing about psychiatry. the most recent advances in phychiatry and neuroscience has come about in the last decade, with the help of modern technology. Did the nazi's have the technology to do EEG's? no. did they have the technology to do CT's? no. good job genius.

If electroshock is/was normal...why don't more people have experiences like the movie "phenomenon" -because electroshock is F^%$#@ up!!! Who ever created it is one hell of a monster and likes to watch people suffer-thank you for opening that up :o)

ECT actually hepls people to a certian degree by improving there ability to live stable mental lifes. ECT now days is done way better than in the 1900s. Yes brain damage is possible. But is not a high chance of brain damage depends how much ect treatment you receive. Apparently it is the most effective treatment better than meds.
