@stellarcorpse 1. Electroshock can erase your memory - it did for Ernest Hemingway. 2. The army uses Ketamine as an antidepressant and it can erase memories also. 3. That really does look like an impostor pod person Kanye.
The FBI knew Hemingway was at the Mayo Clinic, as an agent later documented in a letter written in January 1961.[148] In an attempt at anonymity, Hemingway was checked in at the Mayo Clinic under Saviers' name.[144] Meyers writes that "an aura of secrecy surrounds Hemingway's treatment at the Mayo", but confirms he was treated with electroconvulsive therapy as many as 15 times in December 1960, and in January 1961 was "released in ruins".[149] Reynolds was able to access Hemingway's records at the Mayo, which indicated that the combination of medications given to Hemingway may have created the depressive state for which he was treated.[150]
Three months after Hemingway was released from Mayo Clinic, back in Ketchum, in April 1961, one morning in the kitchen Mary "found Hemingway holding a shotgun". She called Saviers who sedated him and admitted him to the Sun Valley hospital; from there he was returned to the Mayo Clinic for more electro shock treatments.[151] He was released in late June, and arrived home in Ketchum on June 30. Two days later, in the early morning hours of July 2, 1961, Hemingway "quite deliberately" shot himself with his favorite shotgun.[152]

Thanks. My grandmother was given ECT for depression twice and also heavily medicated but not like this, sounds like they really did him in, what a drag. It's horrible to lose your will to live.
