I once spoke to someone years ago about ECT; I had seen the after effects on someone and wondered about it. I was told that they didn't fully understand how/why it worked, but it helped those with severe depression. That did not inspire confidence, as it sounds like some sort of experiment if they didn't understand.
I have received some very serious electrical shocks over the years, so I can't help but wonder about the physical effects to the brain by running electricity through it. With the advent of pharmaceutical breakthroughs, I don't see why they can't come up with something that would work better than frying one's brain cells with electricity be it for depression or autism.
