It was pretty bad, someone in your family could just not like you, or get mad at you for anything and they could have you locked up in a mental institution (mainly father, mother, husband, or even a brother) No one tested you to make sure you actually needed any treatment at all, never mind being institutionalized for the rest of your life. A husband could just be tired of his wife and have her put away with a few lies no one bothered to verify.

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.

I think what makes lobotomy much more horrible than any other widely spread medical procedure, is that it simply alters who you are completely. When asked "who are you" or "how would you define yourself", one rarely starts listing of their physical traits and more often than not starts to describe their personality. Their interests, beliefs and aspirations. I firmly believe that these are the things that actually make you, well, "you". It is an absolutely terrifying thought that someone might completely alter this and in a sence kill what you consider to be "you", and that they could do this legally and maybe even justifying it all by thinking they were helping you..

Now I have been diagnosed with social anxiety and generalized anxiety, so the whole school thing might’ve been one of the reasons as to why I developed those disorders. They never treated me like that though… I just get anti-depressant’s for my anxiety and I’ll be going to a special school where they know how to handle kids with anxiety, adhd, autism, Etc.

Digital lobotomy

They were used as a way to silence the trauma of male and female victims of sexual assault and abuse. Women and children in particular had no say over it and their husbands and parents, who were often their abusers, would do it to stop them acting out and to silence them. It's not different to my incredibly abusive mother putting my sister on psych meds at 10y.o that were so strong she became a zombie. Psych pros and my mother considered it a success as she no longer acted out (about the abuse we were suffering). I learned to be quiet and was sold to an older man when I was 16 who also tried to have me committed when he wanted the inheritance my father (who I met once) had left me. Psych nurses were all too keen to lock me up and give me meds that made it impossible for me to think. It was agony. Thankfully an independent reviewer saved me or I might be there still today ( Abusive man did try to kill me after I got out though). My grandfather was also committed in 1940's after he suffered a head injury. He was starved and tortured before dying there. It was one of Australia's worse asylums.

Independent reviewer? And which asylum was your grandfather at?

You missed some facts about Rosemary Kennedy, God, bless her soul. Upon her birth, the doctor was late. Her mother closed up her legs in order to prevent her from coming out of her. They literally pushed her head back in. The doctor arrived about 2 hours later. The lack of oxygen made her growth stunted since the day she was born. However, some people also believed that she might suffer ADHD or any other disorder that was not yet diagnosed back then. Her father is ashamed by her slow growth as compared to her other siblings who accomplish more things than her. His son's election pressured him further to "fix" her. He secretly signed her up for a lobotomy procedure. Nobody in the family knew about this horrifying event, and no, not even Rosemary herself knew what she was going under the knife for. The surgery failed and her mind regressed to a toddler. She spent decades in isolation from the rest of her family. Her father prohibited anyone from visiting her. He came up with many excuses to keep her away from his family. He never once visited her. They eventually found out about her condition and they became advocates for raising awareness on disabilities ever since.

She yelled at him often, and even went to the extent of closing him off from his stepsiblings. He did act out, but it was a result of abuse. His Lobotomy was a result of manipulation. His stepmother claimed she was afraid of him to a ridiculous extent, (which part of it may have been true, but it doesn’t excuse her treatment towards him.) His lobotomy was performed without his knowledge, and only weeks after the operation was completed, by Freeman himself I might add, did he find out about it. It permanently altered his mental state and it took him a while to get his life situated and turned around. Highly recommend his memoir, its a fantastic read.

I worked with a patient who was a victim of lobotomy. I w as told he had been given one because he was uncontrollably violent. When I knew him he was incredibly friendly and his speech was very slurred and slow, but he was a genius when it came to computing numbers. Who knows how much we lost as a society by the loss of this man's intellect and ability to communicate it?

It's horrible, but actually not that interesting. The brains of children are extremely resilient to damage, due to being able to reroute and re-network the connections through other means (i.e. neuroplasticity). You can see this clearly in the cases of corpus callosotomy in severe, refractory epilepsy. They sever the two hemispheres. In children, the procedure results in almost no ill effects, but in adults, it is extremely detrimental to neurological function. This is also patent in cases of agenesis of the cerebellum; the kids learn some other way to balance and such, but in adults, they'll never walk again.

Not a lobotomy story, but an example of how we used to diddle with the human mind having little to no idea what we were doing: My grandpa was a WWII prisoner of war survivor. His memories from the war were often debilitating. Electro shock therapy was recommended to him, they told him it had the potential to totally erase his traumatic memories. Who wouldn't want that? He went through with it, of his own volition (to my knowledge anyway), and he had the opposite result. After his treatment, he claimed to have total recall of his entire life. He remembered everything that he had ever experienced, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

There's this video of this lady in the 60s-70s I wanna say she was some sort of psychologist, who recorded herself preforming a trephination(which is an accent procedure where one drills a tiny hole into the skull, which causes like the blood pressure in your skull to like re-fluctuate basically... so a ton of blood rushes out and then like levels itself out. So they were saying) she just wanted to document the whole process, as it was said that it cured all sorts of things like headaches or head pressure, vertigo, all sorts of crazy stuff as well as improved mindfulness and inner peace and even could potentially lead to telepathy I recall someone in the documentary explaining it as almost like being a carbonator, so better blood flow happens, which leads to higher consciousness tons of people have done it. John Lennon being the first one that comes to mind. I think it's fascinating. I wanna say the documentary was called heart beat of the brain or something along those lines.

I can’t believe that not long ago I would’ve had been lobotomized since apparently I’m the “perfect candidate” according to the advertisement

i am actually glad that Lobotomy is no longer in use as a medical practice.... mainly because, not only would i have had to go through that since childhood, but also if i were to survive that practice and then do my studies in Psychology, I would have to do the same thing to other people just because they were termed as "mentally unstable" or as my psychology lecturer (who was also my MENTOR in my degree college during my term from 2007 to 2010) told my dad "There is something wrong with your daughter" just because they preferred to sit in the back bench all alone with their noses buried in books..... and that is true since i had mainly been dealing with just counseling from my childhood till my Pre-University College.... It was only in my degree that i started to take medication (thanks to my "mentor" and Psychology lecturer) to told my dad those very words "there is something wrong with your daughter" just because i preferred to sit in the back bench rather than sit in the front benches with other students..... and also because according to that mentor, she thought that i didn't want to talk to people or didn't make friends when i actually had a lot of friends i would talk to, except that i was more comfortable to be to myself than be with a group of girls who didn't do anything much except talk about guys and stuff and also gossip about others behind their backs, while i on the other hand preferred to bury my nose in books .... and also whenever i had any problem i preferred to just do it on my own.... and this was another "problem" this mentor saw about me which she thought was uncommon for girls my age..... and i actually ended up having sever depression from my third semester on-wards because my mentor suddenly went to my theater teacher and told her to just kick me out of the club because she thought that the amount of theater work was going to affect my studies, when in fact, theater work actually helped me with my studies..... and i am now 36 years old, so yeah, i was just as surprised at my second semester results as she was and i was just starting to want to make sure that by me being in extra-curricular activities, my concentration in my studies was being helped out.... but my mentor didn't think that way..... in fact she (my mentor) didn't tell me this on her own..... In fact it was my Theater teacher who actually told me this and that too on the first day of my third semester, and she even told me that i needed to ask my mentor's permission to even continue doing theater work.....and of course i was angry, because i never asked her (my mentor's) permission to join Theater Club since she is not my mum or dad nor is she related to me by blood or family connections..... So, i told my Theater teacher in as calm way as i could tell her, that i was not going to ask my mentor's permission to continue my theater work when i never asked for her permission to join Theater Club.... and also my parents, and not my mentor, payed for my Theater Club work and well, if my parents didn't have any problem with me being in not just Rotract Club, my College Paper Re-Cycling Unit and the Theater Club, i honestly didn't understand why was it bothering my mentor so much about Theater work affecting my studies, because if i continued to do my Theater work, i would have gotten to know if my good results in my studies were due to me doing extra-curricular activities and my studies together or if was just a coincidence that i got a good result in my second semester exams.... But my mentor wanted to act like my "babysitter" instead.... and because of her nosing around in my life in college, i did just Half a year instead of at least a full year.... because i told my Theater Teacher that i would rather quit Theater Work than ask someone who didn't even have the courage to talk to me (Her ward/ Student) about her decision.... nor did she talk to my parents about the fact that she wanted me to stop doing Theater work, because if she (my mentor) had just done that, i would have listened to my parents..... but i just asked my parents that day when i returned home if they knew what my "Mentor" had done... and they told me that they never got any call from my Mentor about the stuff.... and that got me even more upset... so i ended up having Sever Depression in my third semester.... and by the time i was in my 6th and final semester i was so depressed that i actually noticed that i was getting more depressed.... and in 2013 i ended up having a total nervous break down because i had been doing re exams for my 3rd, 4th and 5th semesters continuously (which i actually managed to clear) except my 6th semester second re exam attempt which i actually decided to quit and abandon, mainly because i was so over-whelmed by the fact that nothing was going well with me because my mentor always kept poking her nose in whatever i did apart from studies because according to my mentor i had to just keep studying but i have ADHD issues so the busier i am the better my studies became and just studying like a nerd was not my thing...... So i really can't imagine going through the Lobotomy process NOR can i imagine ever trying to do that Lobotomy process on anyone else...... I am really sorry for those who have under gone this process or had someone in their family under go this process.....

Before my mom died, she told me that she was sure her mom had a lobotomy when she was out in an institution. Apparently she’d had a nervous breakdown a few times when my mom was a teen. The last time she came back from treatment, she wasn’t the same. It was a horrible thing for my mom to have carried around all that time. One of her college friend who has become a doctor did some digging and sure enough, that’s what happened and it was never ok’d by my grandfather. My mom is sure he never knew.

My greataunt Maria had a lobotomy as a teen back in the 1910s. She was the first girl in a family of 9 children. As a very young child of about 5 she did hard difficult work that her mother should have been doing. By 8 she was given full responsibility of running the household. No running water, no electricity, no diapers, no store to buy groceries...and all done in the burning smothering South Texas heat. The boys didn't have to help her bc she was a female and that's what females did. Her mother spent her time in a darkened room in the back of the house popping out babies (fvck you Florencia). When she reached puberty, Maria's hormones kicked in and she started to question her lot. She was promptly institutionalized at South Presa where she further traumatized by the staff and lobotomized when she questioned authority. My mother would visit her and described her as sweet and that she loved bananas. My mother's cousin stated Maria died of a broken heart, insinuating she died bc her love wasn't reciprocated by a crush. No, Maria died in an insane asylum bc her pos parents and the attitudes of the misogynist society of the time. RIP Aunt Maria.

To her he saw right through her. But still I had a life time of abuse. Still facing homelessness at age 64.

It's really concerning how something like this is making a comeback in a different form - the mutilation of healthy body parts where at the core it actually is a mental health issue, and not only does it not solve the problem, it comes with a myriad of other morbid complications

My friend's mother, a very kind woman, shot herself after having a lobotomy performed on her years ago. I was shocked to hear that she had done that just weeks after the "surgery." She must have been in agony.

My mother often told me, "You belonged in a Crazy House like your Grandmother." If Mom could have had her way, this may have happened to me. Just because I did not agree with Mom over every issue (does not mean that I was crazy). Mom may have been the crazy one.

I had a student who developed severe seizures as young adult. They performed a partial lobotomy on her (14years ago) She proceeded to become an architect afterwards. But when she visted me recently she only came to 'get to know' me. She had zero memory of anything or anyone before the procedure. Relatives etc told her of her previous life and she was on a mission to find out more about her life before. I showed her photos etc and but she had no recollection of anything. She told me that she even had to get to know her two young sons from scratch. Sad But her seizures were/are gone

Idk about that many of them probably did have some sort of psychological disorder considering allot of people do, but your right this was wrong, probably one of the biggest things it did was provide some sort of alteration in behavior that acted like a placebo to convince family members that they were “cured” and the family then started treat them differently and that changed the whole dynamic of the relationship.

The way the narrator just blew past the guy's story of him being upset about his mother's passing, and how his step mother just wanted to shut him up is disturbing. They said it was the little boy's mother-in-law, not his step mom, like he'd be married at that age. Then they said he had no trouble after the lobotomy which is not all what he says. Then they deceitfully showed his cat scan with the impression that nothing was wrong, but they people who did the cat scan said it was abnormal.

I came here thinking it was a jjk edit but stayed for the informative content

If you think about what people at the time (and some still today) know about consciousness, you have to view their actions from a different angle (at least a little bit). If your view is being influenced by your religious convictions, you may come to the conclusion that your mind is an unaltered "spirit", that is not bound to your body. (free will and all that). Thus you may come to the wrong conclusion, that if someone behaves differently, there must be something wrong with his brain. The mental leap to that pathology being fixable isn't all that huge.

I don’t think either of that will help. What that kid needed was help from a proper psychologist…some good therapy. Not some lobotomy. He just needed to be explained about the big change that’s happening in his life. For kids, that scenario is as big as the world ending. Once he gets to term with that, the relationship can start well. But saying to the new wife that this kid is just being a kid, can be a problem especially if he was being quite volatile towards her. That’s a recipe for disaster. The little boy may not be a danger when he is 5 but imagine he kept his dislike for her as he became a teen. An unruly 18 year old can be detrimental to not only her safety but also the fathers. Because, I’m sure his hatred would also extend to the father, who favors the wife over him and scolds his son.

Women are cursed with irrationality. So it makes sense for them to take the nails to their skulls.

My dad told me I needed a lobotomy when I was 10 years old. I had social anxiety and found it hard to talk to strangers, especially adults. Both my parents mentioned putting me in a psych ward because I wouldn't talk (later diagnosed as selective mutism). Whenever I bring it up to my mother now, she just says "yeah, we were scared." That is no excuse to lobotomize a CHILD. Weirdly enough, my brother was also shy and displayed selective mutism tendencies, yet it was never pushed on him that he had something wrong with him. I definitely resonated with "lobotomies were done on rebellious teen women". I am 20 now, never had a lobotomy, but I still have panic attacks when that procedure is mentioned (Yes, I had one during this video, but I still wanted to learn about it). *Edit for the ones who keep replying that they find the events of my life hard to believe. 1: Read my other comments further explaining my experience. 2: It's my life. Don't invalidate what you don't understand. I've been through it, you haven't (which is a good thing) so stop trying to tell me that I'm making it all up. 3: Furthermore, as I've said countless times, I never actually got a lobotomy. Yes it was illegal at that time when my dad threatened me, but do you think my ten year old self knew that? Do you honestly believe that I didn't think he'd find some way to get me lobomized even *if* I knew it was illegal?

This was honestly hard for me to get through, being someone who spent most of my young life in a locked mental ward. The continuation of inhumane treatment is still there, it's just muted. It's polite enough to skirt the media attention, and now they call electric shock "ECT," which is still legal in my home state of Georgia. Nothing has changed, they still want to make us vegetables. When I was 14 I was found dangling in my closet like an old pair of shoes. Instead of talking to me, my parents locked me away and I was placed on 9 psychiatric medications daily. I isolated myself, suffered from a new eating problem, detached from reality and was even drooling on myself. My eyes were sunken like a corpse and I was either nauseous or seizing on a daily basis. Of course they put me on an anti epileptic medication to treat the side effects of the other medication. All in my freshman year. I'm now almost 27 and still feel the traumatic effects of my prolonged stays at various hospitals. And my heart aches for anybody dealing with it today, let alone in the 1930s.

She was from a upper middle class family and she was rebellious. She shoplifted and got caught. The second time she was caught a doctor recommended the procedure praising it's efficiency to make a person compliant. The result was that she was brought to a state where she lost most of her communication ability. When she did talk it seemed like she was experiencing a memory or hallucination about an event in her past. She could maintain some focus in the present, but not much.

Probably not. I personaly dont think so.

I would argue that a large portion of "proffesional" psychological doctors provide ineffective treatments, seeing as the percent of people diagnosed with depression, anxiety, and similar diagnoses has grown substantially since the early 1900s, as people begin to worry about far more petty things, like what people think of them, or even about "problems" that did not exist up until recent years, such as gender identity. People in the time of the world wars, were not worried about their identity or what people thought of them, they were worried about their country, and its stability, and I believe that sentiment has dropped dramatically, and that is a problem.

As a psychologist I will say this is horrific with modern psychotherapy we can get to the core of the unhelpful behaviours instead of damaging connection with the frontal lobe. Damage to the frontal lobes can result in: Loss of simple movement of various body parts (Paralysis) Inability to plan a sequence of complex movements needed to complete multi-stepped tasks, such as making coffee (Sequencing) Loss of spontaneity in interacting with others Inability to express language (Broca's Aphasia) Loss of flexibility in thinking and persistence of a single idea or behaviour (Perseveration) Inability to focus on a task and to filter out distractions (Attention) Mood fluctuations (Emotional lability) Difficulty problem solving Difficulty inhibiting or controlling a response or impulse (Disinhibition) Reduced motivation, initiation and persistence on activities (Adynamia) Reduced awareness/insight into difficulties Changes in social behaviour Changes in personality that's a lot of sacrifices to make for a band-aid solution.
