In reply to how can I make med adds on tv???, posted by lostsailor on February 3, 2003, at 23:05:56
I've got an idea --
Man is stressed, man goes to doctor, man gets Prozac. Man is happy, suddenly. Man's wife is happy man is happy. Happy man and wife live together happily. Until wife figures out happy man's Mr. Happy is no longer happy. :-( Wife becomes less happy, happy man wants to make wife happy but Prozac keeps Mr. Happy from being happy. Eventually happy wife becomes sad, sad wife and happy man separate. Happy man becomes not-so-happy man, goes to doctor Doctor says, Why don't we try you on Prozac? No longer happy man gawks at doctor's silly face and says, Why the heck do you think my wife left me???
---- Now THAT's an SSRI ad everyone could appreciate. . . . :-)
Feel better, Tony --
