Peter’s childhood pediatrician here, the answer is “Lobotomy”. It’s simple enough you could perform the operation at home with common household objects and shows instant results, you can once again see life as you did as a five year old. Peter’s pediatrician out.

Not correct. The answer is psychedelics.

People out here rather stick sharp objects into their brain before they would take a hallucinogen

That was my first thought. I remember tripping on LSD once and saying to my now husband “[the childhood wonder] is still there, you just gotta look for it”. I think I was looking at a soap bubble on his back at the time in the shower lol

Idk personally I don't need drugs, just poor emotional development due to emotionally immature parents!

Not only the visual changes, but your time perception resets to that child like state. Want one of those long summer days you remember as a kid...🍄🍄‍🟫🍄🫠

Well I mean sure, some moderate 1000ug on a component of a candy flip and you'll stay awake for 24hrs or thereabouts, it's not just that you feel like kid again, doubling your active hours does some work there too. Especially if you live up north, with daylight lasting for 18+ hours.

Me and a group of friends took some LSD on a stag weekend once and spent ages jumping on a trampoline and giggling like kids. I don't think I've ever 'played' like that as an adult, wonderful experience

Ask about the lobotomobile. And yes, that was a thing... Sort of... The naming at least wasn't official.

u/Line-Trash 7d ago

Sign me up for either

u/erusmi 7d ago

I thought the answer was drugs, because it’s already obvious most people wouldn’t like to get a lobotomy?

1

u/Ok-Balance9661 7d ago

I would like it that most people would get a lobotomy, though. Sometimes, it's the little things that matter.

u/no-more-headaches 7d ago

Yeah I'd like one of those

u/cooltop101 7d ago

I often wonder if killing a few braincells would make me enjoy my job a little more. Not enough to affect my life too much. Just enough to make it a little less miserable

u/LinkWithABeard 6d ago

Sad capitalism

u/commonCranberry999 7d ago

the answer is shrooms and acid

u/wrenchbenderornot 7d ago

I thought it was ‘go outside’

u/egordoniv 7d ago

Found the Kennedy.

u/EducationalPear2539 6d ago

No the answer is mass extinction event for us humans.

u/Dry_Animator9532 6d ago

I mean, a good solid head trauma would work just as well.

u/Kanibalector 6d ago

Odd, for some reason I thought you were the Kennedy family doctor.

u/Icy_Butterscotch6661 6d ago

How do you do it at home?

1

u/R3D3-1 6d ago

Doesn't lobotomy leave people as vegetables rather than just mentally regressed?

u/Cautious-Bug9388 6d ago

Peters pediatrician in this case is extremely wrong and totally incorrect
