This is nuts. Bringing ECT into the discussion of a novel psychedelic medicine.

Totally different ballparks. Well-established results vs. very little formal research.

Have you had ECT, or do you know anyone who has? It's a last resort for horrible depression and not much else. It has huge risks, and while it does often make these people's lives manageable, it shouldn't be in the same discussion as a medication that's been out of discussion for political reasons.

shivers at the thought of ECT
