Now (well in the UK) our psychiatric hospitals: patients’ have their own room, bathroom with shower and bath - it’s not the 1940’s. However, people still relate to mental illness a mad lunatics, psycho’s who are caged in huge asylums. People also get confused that psychiatry is the same as psychology, this too is wrong, it’s a medical speciality; I trained for 7yrs at medical school and now have 10yrs postgrad before I can apply for a consultant position.
This is completely untrue – I am a medical ST3 doctor in psychiatry. The modern day lobotomy conducted by neurosurgeons involves two electrodes (approx. 5mm in diameter) using CT scans after every 0.5cm going down in to the brain: the aim being to target the lower medial quadrant of the frontal lobes, slight heating for < 10 seconds sever connections between the limbic system and supra-orbital part of the frontal lobe. They now use a similar method to treat severe refractory Parkinson’s disease
@A5H001 its were they take a long sharp pick and stick it into the corner of your eye and up into your brain wiping all memory of who you were and all you can realy do is sit there and drool.....its quite horrible actualy
@A5H001 I kid you not, a lobotomy is where a doctor puts you unconscious, and drives in ice pick through your eye, and then shakes around your brain a bit
@IronicallyVague the only way the patient would get black eyes is if was a prefrontal lobotomy. if the surgeon went through the top or the side of the head there would be no marks on her face at all
@ItsJustJasmine I'll have to find out about that. I know patients were often provided with dark sunglasses to cover the bruising from lobotomies. I visited the abandoned Weston State Hospital last summer, (there are vids of the place on YouTube), some of the icepicks used for lobotomies and an ect machine are still there.
@boofster69 Own. Pwn is a geeky or nerdy slang formed because of the frequent typo when one means to spell the word "own." and means "to intellectually or physically dominate someone/something."
@TheHammerheart They did drill holes in the skull in the original lobotomy. The version with the ice picks was only invented to make lobotomies cheaper and easier to perform.
@ToshizouHijikata no the would peel the top eye lid back and push an ice pick above the eye into the socket then into the brain in till it stopped then they would hit it with a hammer and give it a wiggle then pull it out....
@buchan2 What you describe is the so called transorbital lobotomy or ice pick lobotomy. It's a method Walter Freeman invented to save money and time and even allow psychiatrists (like him) to perform lobotomies. Still, the original precision method, the prefrontal lobotomy (as it was performed by brain surgeon Watts and Freeman), was performed by drilling holes into the skull. google it if you don't believe it.

A side effect is her eyes would be horribly blackened if it was a lobotomy.

Personal attacks of sexual nature is a sign of intellectual lacking and a sign of a sexual identity crisis.
The irony, that the attacker attacks from what he identifies with, his identity crisis.
