Millions of Americans are lied to and are given Electroshock also known as ECT every year. No one tells them what ECT really does. Here's the truth.

Ask  psychiatrists and they can't explain why or how their ECT “works.” It is literally as scientific as sticking one's head in a light socket. Do it often enough and you will become disoriented, confused, lose your memory or even die. 

Here's a description of electroshock works.

1. The patient is injected with an pain killer medication to block out pain and a muscle relaxant to shut down muscular activity and prevent fractures of the spine.

2. Electrodes are placed on the temples bilaterally (one on each temple) or unilaterally (front to back, one on the temple and one on the back of the head).

3. A rubber gag is placed in the mouth to keep teeth from breaking or patients from biting their tongues.

4. Between 180 and 480 volts of electricity are sent blazing like a fire through the brain.

5. To meet the brain's demand for oxygen, blood flow to the brain can increase as much as 400%. Blood pressure can increase 200%. Under normal conditions, the brain uses a blood-brain barrier to keep itself healthy against harmful toxins and foreign substances. With electroshock, harmful substances “leak” from blood vessels into the brain tissue, causing swelling. Nerve cells die. Activity of the cells is altered. The structure of the brain is altered.

6. The results are memory loss, confusion, loss of space and time orientation and even death.

7. Most patients are given a total of six to 12 shocks, one a day, three times a week.
