are we sure it's a scorched earth approach? I thought we don't exactly know WHY ect works. its possible calibrating neuronal stimulation is good for the brain and helps calibrate neuronal connections that otherwise were not as excercised as much as the ones very depressed people have.
In general, deeply depressed people interpret and perceive even language and visuals differently, in more negative and cynical lights, its hard to consciously teach yourself to constantly perceive the opposite or think in a more positive way, perhaps just stimulating ALL nuerons helps calibrate paths that otherwise were not favored other neuronal pathways highly utilized by depressed people.
To be honest, I've seen more people in my life die from going from antidepressents to street heroine than I have people from ect. I am not ready to say ect is safer than antidepressants. It's also to be noted antidpressants its a multibillion dollar industry of which a very few very rich families make a ton of money and also sell the same drugs for heroine overdoses, many heroine addicts of which came from being cut off from abusing antidepressants, 1/3rd of all heroine addicts actually so...
when you compare ect therapy to a massive opioid epidemic that makes a few people rich, and all of the violence that has encompassed the heroine drug dealing industry, I would say ect is potentially a safer option.
It has a stigma because of how it was originally used.
I would still though be interested in psychadelics over ect but shrooms can cause permanent damage and impacts everyone differently as well so both are hard to streamline I imagine.
odd since you know it says that as a warning on every icognito page what the purpose of it is, it is so disassociate history being logged locally so other people looking at your browser history cant see what you did. noone said its not being tracked. icognito from the perspective or your locally preserved state in the browser, not anyone elses...
