There are so many things I wish I had known before having ECT. The following are the focus of this episode:

Like how my doctors would treat me after being disabled by the procedure

The "new and improved" safety measures aren't as effective as advertised

ECT's lasting impact on how the brain processes vision

That ECT doctors don't know much about electricity or what it does to the human body

Some people will experience serious disabling conditions from the electricity used to cause a seizure
