Although I have no first hand experience (yet) I have know a couple of exceptionally good musicians who could not both take Prozac, and retain that cutting edge that high art requires. I fear, being given the choise I might very well forgo the Prozac and possibly hack my ear off!

If you have a problem, more often than not the doctor will throw a pill at it... the desired result seems to be a complete zeroing out of emotions, a change from the highs and lows of being human to the flat-lined emotional range of a rock. A bored rock, at that.

I love your take on this and your way of expressing it... excellently done.

The intensity and passion of Sylvia Plath or Anne Sexton, every line packs a wallop. The short emotion-laden lines propels the reader to the final word 'emotionless,' as though drained.

Striking poetry, Shells.

Unfortunately doctors seem too ready to prescribe these drugs and indiscriminately without really finding the route cause - I prefer to feel, even if it does hurt than to be numbed and confused.

Well said, Shells. When that stuff works at all, that's about what you get.

Shells, this (sadly) captures the claustrophobia of being lost in that world. I don't think I've ever read anything that describes it so well.
