Anyone heard of it ...

I have at least one question for you guys; maybe more.

Okay so here it is. Have any of you ever been treated for depression with that thing that shocks you or whatever? I think that sounds really scary. I couldn't believe they'd do that to people. How could it help. If anyone here was treated with that, did it hurt really bad and did it help you mentally?

Another thing. I'm constantly hearing bad ...
