" I don’t think it’s fair to say that people who died of anorexia didn’t fight their illness. I think they fought it for as long as they possibly could. There is something heroic about people who manage to get up every day and somehow stay alive with their most vicious, hateful bully living within them. I don’t think it’s fair to judge them or term their entire journey a defeat. But I don’t think they took the right path. I think they took the path of numbness, certainty and safety, and I think it was the safe choice that cost them their life. I think the safe path always leads to a dead end. "
