Psychologist Lauren Slater's life was marred by mental illness. But in 1986 she became one of the first people ever to take Prozac, and overnight her neuroses disappeared. She enrolled in a graduate programme at Harvard; she began to lead a 'normal' life. Then suddenly, without warning, her former, fractured self returned. She increased her Prozac dose, and some kind of equilibrium was restored, but the euphoria never returned. PROZAC DIARY is a lyrical and startlingly poignant account of living under the shadow of a controlled, but ultimately incurable, mental illness.
