Does Electroshock Therapy Activate The Functioning Of Brain?
Hi there I am curious on using some electro shock therapy, I am not sure which form/method is the best one. I have no signs of depression or any mental health issues, I was just just interested on getting smarter as I do not think my brain is functioning to its full capacity

Dear welcome to hcm and thanks for choosing us.
I would advise you not to attempt such things. You have thought of such therapy, that itself proves that you are smart enough.
Electric shock therapy is not recommended for such uses. Let me inform you that even in case of psychiatric patients, this is used as a last resort, when nothing else is working or if patient has suicidal tendency. I don't think any doctor will agree to your plans.
I hope my reply will help you. Please write to hcm or me for more queries or follow up queries. I wish you a smart healthy life ahead. Kindly rate this reply. Thanks
