Carol Kivler has battled depression for decades. Over the past 20 years se has had over 50 successful ECT treatments during my four major bouts with clinical depression. ECT has become my “ladder out of the depression pit” for which I am most grateful. ECT, or electroconvulsive therapy, is commonly known as "shock therapy." Carol shares with Joyce her success with Electric Convulsive Therapy, and encourages others to consider this modality as a way of getting out of deep depression.
