One of my goals as a Senator, if ever I am a Senator, is to place heavy restrictions or bans on the use of ECT (shock therapy). This is used mainly for chronic depression cases, but it is often a debilitating procedure that results in memory loss and severe migraine headaches.

If we're focusing on research, we need more humane methods for dealing with things like chronic depression. I can take a look around to find out what all is going on, but I wanted to suggest that.

Several regions are also discussing bans on gay conversion "therapy," which they should, but gender identification problems are currently classified as disorders, so that's another area. Again, we don't want this to become a major treatise, but those are a few ideas I had.

Finally, "alternative" medicine is usually not embraced by the scientific community because it's usually not very scientific, but it's worth checking into.

If you can provide some detail on the gender ID issue, we can include that as well.
