Electro convulsive therapy. Shock treatments. It is very safe for most people and probably is better for your health than gobbling four meds a day like I do.
If you are profoundly depressed and your doctor determines that waiting on meds to work is putting the patient at risk, ECT will be recommended. With some people the first treatment is inpatient but they can do the remaining treatments on an outpatient basis. You get betweem 6-12 treatments.
The outpatient thing is fairly new and can save a ton of money.
