What happens during Electroconvulsive therapy?
During electroconvulsion therapy, other wise known as 'shock' therapy, electrical currents are sent through the brain. This treatment is believed to help cure mental illnesses such as clinical depression and schizophrenia. When ECT was first introduced, many people were afraid of this certain treatment because of the use of electrical currents. Today however, electroconvulsion therapy is quite effective and is well used for several mental illnesses. There are only a few rare cases of ECT that go wrong now and most that do are only minor. ECT mimics a sort of seizure which 'cleanses the mind and body'. Even though ECT is quite successful in many ways, there are a few symptoms of this therapy that have been reported to never fully go away. (memory loss mainly) Although this treatment is believed to be quite painful in some ways and there are a few drawbacks, it is highly successful at its purpose and for some people who have allergic reactions to the medications prescribed to replace this therapy, it is highly helpful. For these people, ECT may be their only option for now.
