What is another word for Electroshock Therapies?
Pronunciation: [ɪlˌɛktɹə͡ʊʃˈɒk θˈɛɹəpɪz] (IPA) 
Electroshock therapies, also known as Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), have been a controversial medical treatment for mental illnesses for several decades. It is a procedure where electrodes are placed on the patient's head and small electric currents are passed through their brain, inducing a seizure. While it can be an effective treatment, it also carries various risks and side effects. Due to the negative connotation, some synonyms have been created to describe ECT in a more positive light, such as "Electrical Brain Stimulation", "Neuromodulation", or "Brain Zapping". Despite different names, it is important for patients to be fully aware of the potential risks and benefits before undergoing any form of treatment.
