Elizabeth Wurtzel Quotes

Sometimes They Almost Made Me Feel Glad That I Had A Few Extra Years To Play My Depression Out With Therapy And Other Means, Because I Think Its Useful In Youth- Unless Suicide Or Drug Abuse Are The Alternatives- To Have Some Faith In The Mind To Cure Itself, To Not Rush To Doctors Or Diagnosis's ... I Sometimes Worry That Part Of What Creates Depression In Young People Is Their Own, And Their Parents, And The Whole Worlds Impatience With Allowing The Phases Of Life To Run Their Course. We Will Very Likely Soon Be Living In A Society That Confuses Disease With Normal Life If The Panic And Rush To Judgment And Labeling Do Not Slow Down A Bit. Somewhere Between The Unbelievable Tardiness That The Medical Profession Was Guilty Of In Administering Proper Treatment To Me And The Eagerness To With Which Practitioners Prescribe Ritalin For 8 Year Old Boys And Paxil For 14 Year Old Girls, There Is A Sane Course Of Action.
