Should a mental hospital have the right to medicate, shock, or lobotomize a patient if he is really difficult?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Nope

Explanation:

While a small percentage of people supposedly got better or stayed the same, for many people, lobotomy had negative effects on a patient's personality, initiative, inhibitions, empathy, and ability to function on their own. A 2010 review of eight meta-analyses concluded that, because shock therapy causes persistent and permanent memory loss and a slightly increased risk of death, "its use cannot be scientifically justified." Many recipients voluntarily consent to shock therapy, which is typically given for treatment-resistant depression, and get better. Doing this will basically hurt a patient in the long run and it will definitely ruin mental health and shorten life span; since cases show that they are more succtable to sucide.
