Really? You sacrificed sleep? That is a HUGE compliment because it means the story sucked you in HARD, which means I did it right. : D
I'm glad you liked the way I did Sam and Dean and you always do, that really hits home, because getting the characters true to canon is important, and even more important, getting them true in our hearts. It's how readers connect with writers.
And the OCs, thanks! Would you believe I kind of fell in love with Randy Pointy Fingers? He was so pathetic, and needed so much love, and I'm a sucker for that!
Treatments like that? No, not unless it's a cheap hospital. I did checking around and this kind of cold water immobilization doesn't seem to be very popular, but then, mental hospitals aren't probably putting pictures of "happy patients getting treatments" either - I got most of my info from pics from the 40's and 50's when they did all kinds of bad stuff and then let the reporters in! Lobotomies are still performed, yes, for extreme cases of OCD, and only after all other treatments have failed and only with the patient's consent, and only under the most sterile of conditions. Phew!
