With electroshock treatment,
“there is a lot of brain damage, there is memory loss, the death rate does go
up, the suicide rate doesn’t go down. [I]f those are the facts from a very well-designed,
big study, then you’d have to conclude we shouldn’t do ECT. … I don’t see why
we would want to keep doing it. It doesn’t make sense to me.”
—Dr. Colin Ross Texas psychiatrist and author, 2004
