Yeah, no worries! I know it sounds freakin' scary because it's like they used to do it in nut houses and torture people with it. But it's way different now than it used to be. They said it does cause memory issues. So I will warn that. But overall way happier, I think because it zaps out all the stuff that's been holding you down. I mean - I'm no doctor and I am just reporting on what I heard. But I hadn't ever even heard about it being used and when I looked into it I was surprised it is in fact a valid treatment for depression.
