The CT Examiner has just published an important article about the growing debate over involuntary electroshock therapy (ECT) in Connecticut, featuring my traumatic experience with forced ECT twenty years ago at the Institute of Living (part of Hartford Hospital).

Please read and share widely—media coverage like this is crucial to building the momentum we need to protect patients' rights and pass meaningful legislation!
