In the process of doing research for a post I found this article, which is really chilling.
People talk about the prevalence of lobotomies, but with 94% of lobotomies being performed in public institutions after just a few months of an individual being committed, with the remaining 6% in private practices or asylums, and in those cases as a last case scenario after years of failed treatments. I don't think anything in the media ever properly portrays that.
