Triggering (ED) - R.I.P Polly Williams

Pollack "Polly" Williams died in her home on Friday the 8th of Feb'. I am not sure how she died.

She was featured in Lauren Greenfield's HBO documentary "Thin" as a patient in Renfrew Center in Coconut Creek, Fla. She suffered from Anorexia.

I just thought I should maybe write a thread to inform those who have seen "Thin" and may not know of her death, and I just want to say I hope she's found peace now that she could not find here on earth.

Thanks for reading.
Rest In Peace Polly.
Xoxo

Oh my gosh...
I didnt know.. thank you for letting us know.

I absolutely feel in love with her in the documentary. She seemed to try so hard to keep fighting... even with the odds against her in treatment.

Free from all the pain.
RIP Polly. You made a difference.

The following content has been hidden - Reason : Suicide trig
I wanted to let you know that she is speculated to have taken her own life, and that is how she passed away. That is not completely confirmed.. but I have now read that from quite a few sources.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
and wake up
where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
away above the chimney tops
that's where you'll find me

Oh god, I just watch that documentary. I feel kinda nauseous now. All those girls being kicked out because of insurance... that's horrible. How are any of them expected to recover??

RIP Polly... x




Wake me up before I change again
Remind me the story that I won't get insane
Tell me why it's always the same
Explain me the reason why I'm so much in pain.

I was heartbroken when I read she'd died.
Even though I did not know her personally, I felt a connection with her as she also had an ED. She seemed so funny and lovely. I just can't believe she's gone. :(

That's sad.
It's sad when anyone dies.
She seemed like a really loyal, nice & genuine person from the documentary.

go on a journey, & roam the streets,
can't see the way out, & so use the stars.
she sits for eternity, & then climbs out.
she's the glowing sun, so come out.
