Tell the FDA to keep dangerous ECT machines listed as dangerous devices…
The FDA is considering reclassifying ECT machines (Electro Convulsive Therapy or shock machines) as Class 2 devices instead of Class 3 devices (which are dangerous). This would allow more widespread use of these barbaric instruments by psychiatrists.
Note that ECT Machines have never been tested for “safety” — they can’t pass any such safety inspections or tests because they cause irrevocable harm to patients who are, for the most part, forcibly administered electro shock. Sending hundreds of volts of electricity through the brain is not something that should be condoned by the FDA.
Give the FDA a piece of your mind about it here: ECT Machines.

I am a survivor of forced shock treatment. Thanks for your blog about the FDA and ECT machines. Even young children are subjected to this brain-damaging and traumatic treatment. The cruel and costly methods of organized psychiatry must be exposed and challenged. Are you aware of the newly released book “Doctors of Deception: What They Don’t Want You To Know About Shock Treatment” by Linda Andre?
