I would want to ask a lot more questions before i could decide.

Let's say the lobotomy did solve your other mental health problems too. Would you do it?
And let's say you do know the chance of paralysis, death, etc.. What is the most risk you would accept? For example, maybe you would accept "6% chance of paralysis, 2% chance of death, 2% brain injury"
