What happens to you after having a lobotomy?

A lobotomy is a surgical procedure that involves severing the connections between the frontal lobes of the brain and the rest of the brain. It was once used as a treatment for mental illness, but is now considered to be a barbaric and unethical procedure.

The effects of a lobotomy can be devastating. It can cause a person to become emotionally flat, apathetic, and unable to think or reason clearly. They may also experience seizures, incontinence, and difficulty speaking. In some cases, lobotomy can even lead to death.

The use of lobotomy has declined significantly in recent years, and it is now only used in very rare cases. There are many other, more effective treatments for mental illness that do not involve destroying brain tissue.
