Prozac Nation

It's impossible to emotionally identify with a story when what's portrayed is nothing more than your life and your own internal dialogue. Watching Prozac Nation, I never connected with the story, for emotionally, nothing in me changed. Battling clinical depression already, I saw nothing more than my own struggles and emotions projected onto another person's life. In conclusion, I realized our demons are all the same. Though depression results in a feeling of severe isolation, the 300 million Americans that suffer from it can take heart, for we all are fighting the same damn thing. In my struggle, I am nowhere near alone. Perhaps, I have too many others to fight this demon with me.
