{"product_id":"9780140263947","title":"Prozac Diary","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1988, at age 26, \u003cb\u003eLauren Slater\u003c\/b\u003e lived alone in a basement apartment in Cambridge, depressed, suicidal, unemployed. Ten years later, she is a psychologist running her own clinic, an award-winning writer, and happily married. The transformation in her life was brought about by Prozac. \u003cb\u003eProzac Diary\u003c\/b\u003e is Lauren Slater's incisive account of a life restored to productivity, creativity, and love. When she wakes up one morning and finds that her demons no longer have a hold on her, Slater struggles with the strange state of being well after a lifetime of craziness. Yet this is no hymn to a miracle pharmaceutical. It is a frankly ambivalent quest for the truth of self behind an ongoing reliance on a drug. Slater also addresses Prozac's notorious \"poop-out\" effect and its devastating attack on her libido. This is the first memoir to reflect on long-term Prozac use, and reviewers agree that no one has written about Prozac with such beauty, honesty, and insight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022097989872,"sku":"9780140263947","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780140263947_p0.jpg?v=1763655524","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780140263947","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
