I spent more than 2 months hospitalized several years ago when my kids were little. Alot of it is vague because the docs changed my medication so frequently nothing had time to work and there was so much of it. When my husband (now ex) didn't think he was getting the results that he wanted he moved me to another hospital that did ECT treatments. The most barbaric thing ever and has kept me from ever getting inpatient treatment again. He of course had his own motives for getting me the ECT treatments and wiping out some memories but now even looking back at pictures of my kids when they were young the memories are fuzzy and sometimes non exsistant which is so frustrating. I would guess that ECT treatments have probably changed alot over the past 15 yrs but though alot of memories were erased one that wasn't is how the procedure worked. I know mental health hospitals have done wonders for people and continue to do so but because I felt like I was treated more like an animal than a human it is someplace I can't imagine ever going to willingly again.
