Hello Dale, Electric schock treatment has been done in Denmark for several years - but not so much now a days because of better medication. One reason more why it`s not so common more is, that many pwp are a little scared when they heard the word "electric schock. I was talking with a Psychiatrist one day, and she told me this treatment is very good with only few sideeffects.
