The Heresy of Materialistic Psychiatry: Electroconvulsive Injury (ECI): Electroconvulsive Injury

Electroconvulsive Injury (ECI)

Electroconvulsive Injury (ECI) is a specific form of Diffuse Electrical Injury (DEI) that is induced by so-called Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT). The scientific medical literature also refers to DEI by other names, such as  electric shock syndrome or post electric shock syndrome. The main difference between DEI and ECI is that ECI is rarely acknowledged by the medical community because it is purposely administered by medical personnel rather than occurring through an accident or as an acknowledged assault with possible subsequent criminal charges. Although, the assault is usually acknowledge when ECT is administered due to political and terrorist activity, which is commonly done without anaesthesia, muscle relaxant or oxygenation. However, when this type of injury is purposely administered by medical personnel, the existence of symptoms, which are the same as other diffuse electrical injuries, is usually denied and the reporting of these symptoms is sometimes even suggested as a symptom of a mental illness.

Diffuse electrical injury is often, but not always, accompanied by visible thermal damage. This rarely happens with electroconvulsive injury because conductive gel lowers skin resistance and prevents the skin from being burned by the high voltages. However, autopsy studies have shown that thermal damage is sustained to the brain. Since this is usually not possible to detect until after death, it is rarely acknowledged.

In addition to the use of conductive gel to prevent visible signs of harm, anaesthesia and muscle relaxants are used to mask the initial reaction to sustaining such an injury to the head. The anaesthesia and muscle relaxants also often raise the seizure threshold, which means even more electricity is used to induce the desired convulsion, thereby increasing the severity of the injury. 

The amount of electricity used to induce an electroconvulsive injury (ECI) (i.e. 220 to 450 Volts) through electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is above the amount of electricity reported (i.e. 110 to 240 Volts) in the majority of cases of accidental diffuse electrical injury resulting from low voltages (i.e. < 1000 Volts). The injury from ECT is often much more pronounced than other diffuse electrical injuries because the path of the electricity is directly through the brain in addition to being a larger amount of electricity. 

Path related symptomatology from ECI, such as headaches and migraines, would be expected. Since the majority of persons who suffer from a diffuse electrical injury report muscle aches, muscle spasms or twitches, general fatigue, general physical weakness, and general exhaustion, this would also be expected in those who suffer from a electroconvulsive injury. Other less common symptoms reported from diffuse electrical injury, such as weight gain or loss, back problems, dizziness, lack of physical coordination, extreme physical sensitivity, sensitivity to light, excessive perspiration, excessive thirst, and particularly heart palpitations, and especially muscle cramps would be expected to be more prevalent in electroconvulsive injury due to the path of the electricity and the resulting convulsion, even though the convulsion is masked by anaesthesia and muscle relaxants. 

It also seems reasonable that the following list of reported symptoms from diffuse electrical injury would be even more prevalent in such an injury sustained directly to the head, as in the administration of Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT):

• general forgetfulness
• insomnia or other sleep disorders
• fear of electricity
• personality changes
• increased emotional sensitivity
• unexplained moodiness
• memory loss - short term
• unusual anxiety
• reduced attention span/loss of concentration
• lack of motivation
• sexual dysfunction
• easily confused
• unexplained sadness
• feeling of hopelessness
• increased temper
• nightmares
• panic attacks
• crying spells
• inability to cope
• cognitive losses (loss of reasoning skills)
• lack of usual communication skills
• random fears
• general disorientation
• aggressive behaviour
• marital or family problems (that did not exist prior to injury)
• memory loss - long term
• fear of crowds

In addition to these symptoms that are acknowledged as related to diffuse electrical injury (DEI), persons who have sustained a electroconvulsive injury (ECI) through electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) also report a high degree of docility and being easily controlled. Since these are seen by the perpetrators of this type of assault as being some of the most beneficial effects of ECT, these symptoms are dismissed as much as the acknowledge symptoms from the same injury sustained accidentally or by an acknowledged assault. Due to being docile and easily controlled, the victims of such assaults usually remain under the medical “care” of their assailants. Although many of these assailants are completely ignorant of the serious damage they are inflicting and the medical research into diffuse electrical injury, some are well aware of the injuries they are inflicting.
