I can see " "ZOLOFT"" on the bottom without zooming in on it!

Motts you must have a very good memory or take lots of notes as you are shooting to remember all the details?

I don't write stuff down, which is a problem - so I actually do forget lots of details about these trips, and things that don't make their way into the photographs. I try to write a travel log when I shoot overseas though, as those trips are packed with so many excursions that it's difficult to remember what happened even by the end of the week.

I let out a laugh when I saw this. As a nursing student I can say that the DSM classification system is still the gold standard for the diagnosis of mental health disorders. It's eerie to see it here though..

DSM V will be published in 2013; DSM IV very much still in use.

@Psych Student:
DSM 5, Eh? Is this where they will eliminate the use of the word 'Psychotic'? lol
Agreed though, DSM IV Still in use.

This is amazing! As someone who's been in a psych hospital, its weird to think they plastered stuff like this up. They don't do that now, well not as bluntly.

Wow.... I had no idea Zoloft was that old of a medication.
1994... it was such an eternity ago, yet it was only yesterday. I must have blinked as a 4 year old and ended up in the present...

I agree with you Anubis, I was glad to find my disorders on the list... it's hard if your complaints aren't aknowledged I think...

But since when is fetishism a disorder too? ;-)
