Anais continues to speak of depression in this entry of her Diary and of walking until she is exhausted to escape the depression she feels. She buys a Vogue magazine and lives out the lives she finds on the pages within it: fashion, luxury, hair, makeup, clothes, nail polish, spa treatments, travel. This helps her to recreate and find her dream during the times when she is fighting with the reality of her life.
This is an example of a temporary, harmless escape that Anais engages in until she is able to face life again. It's not a habit; it is healthy. It gets her from point A to point B. We all need some form of escape in our lives - what is yours?
