The Gaslit Truth PodcastECT, America's Darkest Medical Scandal with ECT Warrior Sarah Price HancockSend us a textElectricity doesn’t care about intent—and when it meets the human brain, biology, physics, and ethics collide. We sit down with Sarah Price Hancock, a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor and former professor who became an advocate after sustaining injuries from electroconvulsive shock treatment. Her story pulls back the curtain on how misdiagnosis, catatonia, and “maintenance ECT” can unfold in a system with scant dosing standards, limited specialty training, and a consent process that often breaks down when people are most vulnerable.Sarah explains electroporation in clear terms: high-frequency pulses can open cel...
