I need too much, I feel too much

The anorectic operates under the astounding illusion that she can escape the flesh, and, by association, the realm of emotions.

- Marya Hornbacher, Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia

From someone's brother

“Living with someone who has anorexia is a bit like watching someone you love behind a big pane of glass. You’re watching them slowly destroy themselves. And you can’t do anything to change it. You’re forced to watch it. And nothing you say makes sense to them.”
