Julia99's question and Minja's answer concerning favorite pills or dolls (as Nealy
in VOD would say LOL) of the 60's reminded me of an old movie circa mid-60's (can't remember the title) where someone is having a fit of some kind in a department store and a big crowd forms around whoever it was. Before long someone yells does anyone have any Valium at which time everyone in the crowd whips out a bottle and thrusts it at the person who asked.
And I also remember once that one of my aunts loved to like to brag that she "never had to take a nerve pill in her life" as my mother (her sister) muttered under her breath...maybe not, but she's sure caused a few other people to take them!
