    They did use electro shock therapy and even lobotomy for a while. Didn’t quite have the desired effect.

      I got electroshock therapy in 2018 because I’d never been more depressed. I convinced myself that it took away my ability to feel emotions, but I wasn’t able to feel emotions for other reasons. Mostly alcoholism and being on the wrong meds

        Were there any side effects of the electroshock therapy? I didn’t even know that was still legal/happening! How are you now?
