The sick enough trap to me is really like this trap that we get into with the eating disorder, and it can be a symptom of the eating disorder itself, but it's perpetuated by stuff like this, and the second half trap basically says I'm not sick enough to recover or I need to accomplish this, this and this before I'm sick enough, and I think that this really plays into it.

Molly Robbins, the vibrant host of 'My Big Fat Recovery', tackles this head-on in her episode about atypical anorexia.
