A Beautiful Mind

Posted by bob on January 4, 2002, at 23:59:46

I just saw the movie "A Beautiful Mind", and in it, there is a scene where it appears as if they are inducing convulsions in Nash with insulin injections. Is that an outdated treatment similar to ECT, or is it something else entirely that is still used today for Schizophrenia? My impression was that chemically induced convulsions when out with the advent of electrically induced ones.
