ECT is the extreme method of depression management. It's only used as a last resort. The way it's done now is a 180 degree flip from how it was done 30 years ago. You are now given muscle relaxants and ativan so you don't have massive convulsions. It's actually been quite effective for people where medication, lifestyle and diet changes have been completely ineffective
