Oops. My clicking the wrong button on my spell-checker changed “SSRIs” to “Saris”!   Jim Devine, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; web: http://myweb.lmu.edu/jdevine/ From: Devine, James Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2004 8:07 AM To: 'PEN-L list' Subject: RE: [PEN-L] Sam Smith on bad times   Sam Smith writes: >Placated by Prozac<   In my understanding, Prozac and similar Saris don't "placate". Instead, they allow people to more effectively deal with the personal reasons why they’re depressed, especially in conjunction with talk therapy. (That’s not to deny the side-effects or the over-prescription of such drugs, of course. But those are different problems.) JD
