Have you ever had surgery? What for?

Currently on hold for the Neurologist….maybe you should be too?

Dearest Gentle Reader,

A lobotomy is a surgical procedure to provide relief to people with mental illnesses unresponsive to standard treatment. This method was pioneered during the 1940s and 1950s, when treatments for psychiatric disorders were few, chiefly insulin coma and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Psychiatric wards and mental asylums were full of suffering men and women. 

A lobotomy disrupts the connections between the frontal cortex and the rest of the brain, particularly the thalamus. Doctors believed that doing so would reduce abnormal stimuli reaching the frontal area. Such stimuli were thought to cause impulsive and violent behavior. A lobotomy would make the patient calm and docile so that they could be a decent human being and ask an appropriate question sometime before the end of this seriously fucked up election cycle on this site. FUCK!

Oh, and happy Saturday to you loves💋
