No, not even close

  APA position ECT: Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is a safe and effective evidence-based medical treatment. ECT is endorsed by the APA when administered by properly qualified psychiatrists for appropriately selected patients. https://www.psychiatry.org/File%20Library/About-APA/Organization-Documents-Policies/Policies/Position-2015-Electroconvulsive-Therapy.pdf https://www.psychiatry.org/File%20Library/About-APA/Organiza... You’re welcome to disagree with the APA, or point out that the APA only represents a small fraction of psychologists, or question whether this is really a consensus opinion. The APA isn’t god. But I don’t think you can say things like “No, not even close” and expect to be taken seriously.
