Learning about Corrective Drugs

The use of drugs or more relevantly a single drug is evident throughout the novel. In our everyday lives its common to hear about the abuse of hard drugs and prescription drugs, and the ways they can be detrimental to a persons life. What we don't usually hear about, is the effects of drugs meant to benefit a persons life. Kay's battle with her illness is greatly effected by them as seen in the story. Before reading I didn't know nearly as much about corrective drugs such as Lithium.
