That would be perfect for those who suffer from stress and anxiety, heal depression, insomnia, eliminate suicidal thoughts, delusions, hallucinations, melancholy, and obsessions. This is how, in the nineteen thirties, American newspapers advertised not camomile tea or sessions with a psychologist but “an ice pick” put in your head. Or, in other words, a lobotomy. 

Egas Moniz "the father" of lobotomy, was awarded the Nobel Prize for inventing this barbaric surgery. But what if the award was well deserved? 


In this video, I’ll tell you: how did a lobotomy replace an enema in treating stomach disorders? Does the ice pick in the skull affect a person’s character? And most importantly could people be wrong in banning lobotomy?

WATCH


I read that Rose Kennedy was lobotomized because as she grew older like most young women she was curious about men, wanted to date and socialize as her sisters did. Worried that she would cause a family scandal and ruin the families political aspirations her parents chose to have her "spayed" so she would behave. Nothing I read ever said she was violent. I think that was the story her parents told to keep the public from knowing that the Kennedys sacrificed one of their daughters to benefit their sons.
