In intro today several students had questions about ECT, especially
why it seems to work for 'remitting' depression. 

How many sessions/series of ECt does it usually take?

How memory loss is there and is this really the only adverse
symptom? And how much does it really resolve?

What exactly have been the 'advances' in recent years to make it
popular again?

Somebody please answer these--sometimes I don't get answers to
questions as I assume some people prefer to defer to 'experts'
but we only have a week of classes left and I'd like to get
back to students before the semester ends :-)
