Elizabeth Wurtzel, a talented writer from a working-class background, wins a scholarship to Harvard with aspirations of studying journalism and becoming a rock music critic. However, her fractured family life, including an absent father and neurotic mother, leads her into self-destructive behavior and depression. At Harvard, her all-night writing binges and emotional instability alienate her roommate Ruby and two boyfriends. Seeking help, she begins seeing Dr. Diana Sterling who prescribes Prozac. Despite professional success and stabilization from the medication, Elizabeth starts feeling that the pills are controlling her life, leading to difficult choices about her future.
