Nana’s experience :
“Every day she cries, wanting to go to school,” her mother said, adding that this side effect was entirely unexpected.
Nana was reportedly an excellent student and “lively” child, but since the side effect of the drug has become more and more obvious, Xinhua writes that the girl has become increasingly reclusive.
“Once a lively young girl, there are days when Nana will not speak a word…and more and more, she spends her hours hidden in her room reading books by herself,” the news agency writes.
