Shock treatment, often referred to as Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), is a psychiatric procedure where small electric currents are passed through the brain, intentionally triggering a brief seizure to treat certain mental health conditions. It's mainly used when other treatments have failed for severe depression, bipolar disorder, and catatonia, being both controversial and highly regulated due to potential risks and societal stigma.
