“Tell me that you don’t take that blade and drag it across your skin and pray for the courage to press down.”
Susanna Kaysen, Girl, Interrupted

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“I want to explain how exhausted I am. Even in my dreams. How I wake up tired. How I’m being drowned by some kind of black wave.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel

Vladimir Nabokov
“I mean, I have the feeling that something in my mind is poisoning everything else.”
Vladimir Nabokov

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“I start to think there really is no cure for depression, that happiness is an ongoing battle, and I wonder if it isn't one I'll have to fight for as long as I live. I wonder if it's worth it.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“If I were another person, I go on, I wouldn’t want to deal with me, I don’t want to deal with me, It’s so hopeless, I want out of this life. I really do. I keep thinking that if I could just get a grip of myself, I could be all right again. I keep thinking I’m driving myself crazy, but I swear, I swear to God, I have no control. It’s so awful, It’s like some demons have taken over my mind. And nobody believes me, Everybody thinks I could be better if I wanted to. But I can’t be the old Lizzy anymore, I can’t be myself anymore, I mean, actually, I am being myself right now and it’s horrible.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation
