There was so much more signal and less noise when Prozac Nation came out. Young women publishing Big Books was really not a thing—much less controversial ones about depression, which was much more stigmatized at the time. Not to mention considering her life worthy of memoir!

It was like she wrote out of my head. It was the first time someone came even the tiniest bit close to understanding it. They quoted you on CNN & I wrote it on my IG & Facebook. She deserved more time , so much "fighting" herself"
as she said also. Just unfair at 52. -
Whoa, thanks for the heads up!

The intensity of the mockery (and not just from the usual suspects - from all directions) was something else. I am reminded of the job interview question, "what is your greatest weakness?" Most of us never explore that question, let alone honestly and in print. RIP

Damn. Exactly.

Elizabeth Wurtzel was a massive influence during a troubled time in my life. She was one of the first women my age whose stories I read who actually got me.

One rule of hers I follow to this day that is at family dinners, I rarely get up to do the dishes. I’ve done far more than my fair share of washing up in my life, (like a lot of women), so it’s not going to be my turn for a long while. Then I’ll be old and won’t have to do them.

Prozac Nation was the thing that finally got me to a shrink & accept that meds might actually help my severe depression. I still have chronic (light) depression, which dips occasionally in much darker waters, but it’s manageable and I can have some semblance of a life now.

Completely agree. I read all her books in the 90s and Prozac Nation was the 90s ‘The Bell Jar’. I’m sorry she’s gone.

I didn’t know her, but it sure feels like I did. Very sad to hear this news.
