The Billion-Dollar Shock Therapy Scam
Sun Feb 08 2026
A strong critique of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), portraying it as a harmful and outdated medical practice that continues despite serious alleged risks. It characterizes ECT as a form of induced brain trauma, associating it with long-term memory impairment, personality changes, and structural damage to areas involved in learning and emotional regulation.The narrative argues that, although ECT is promoted as a treatment for severe mental illness and generates substantial financial profit, it lacks adequate scientific support and has been described by some international bodies as a violation of human rights. Rather than relying on electrical shocks, the text promotes a model focused on identifying and correcting underlying biological and lifestyle factors, particularly through nutrition and behavioral changes.Overall, the material functions as an advocacy piece, encouraging public action to oppose and discontinue the use of ECT in favor of approaches aimed at root-cause healing rather than symptom suppression.
