Young and Depressed in America

This web site was inspired by Elizabeth Wurtzel's memoir Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America which we recently read in our English 309 class here at The University of Texas at Austin. This site contains information on Wurtzel's book as well as on the topic of depression, Prozac, other anitdepressants and a friend's account of what it is like to be young and depressed in America. Please read on. Depression is something that probably affects or has affected you or someone you know. Get educated on the topic!
