Dancing On My Grave Have you ever tried to be someone your not, just to please someone else, and do anything and everything to be that "special someone"? In this autobiography, "Dancing On My Grave", by author Gelsey Kirkland (with Greg Lawrence) experiences many different challenges. They include: a cocaine addiction, anorexia, and she was a amphetimine abuser. She tries to be someone she is not. And to believe, it is all just to please people she wanted to be like. Gelsey was in ballet in this story, and was at the peak of her career, and all of a sudden it went downhill. She felt that she was too fat and that she wasn't as pretty as all of the other girls in her class. So she became anorexic. She kept getting skinnier and skinnier, sicker and sicker. Her addictions got worse and worse also. She wouldn't go get help for her illness at first, and everything just kept building on and on, and it got to be so bad that it created almost like a huge mountain of failures, fear, and anxiety. But after a while she started realizing that she didn't want to be that way anymore, and got help.
