Side effects May include the specific restlessness of a completed chore un-photographed, the phantom urge to casually mention the task at dinner so it is, somehow, credited, and — by week three — the observation that 22 years of externally-sourced validation had been, apparently, a full-time job in itself.

What is this?

Laus Interna Accepta is part of the Institute Pharmacy's formulary of satirical prescriptions. Everything on this slip is fictional except the behavior it addresses. A real pharmacist, handed this slip, would decline to fill it. Patients are invited to fill it themselves.

Patients know it in practice as Internal Praise, accepted — the Latin is ceremonial; the English form is what they actually execute.
