A Shocking Research

1. I want research the use of electroconvulsive therapy and whether or not it should be used as opposed to therapy and medication
2. Many people are not aware of this type of treatment and others campaign against it since ECT causes seizures. Others support it because there is some health value.
3. Resources are medical journals, medical textbooks, my mother who worked with ECT before
4. I am very drawn to the medical field but have never explored psychiatry. This will be a personal exploration as well. The paper itself will help me understand whether or not if I can look at a medical treatment at both sides, pick a side and still be professional
5. I don't believe this has been done before, even if it has I will be approaching it from my point of view so it will be different because I do not have a formed opinion yet. I am unbiased as possible coming into this.
6. What other resources could I use or access?
