Boarding school was no fun: She wasn’t making friends and was something of a loner during her teenage and early adult years. It was during this period that she became preoccupied with death. She wrote once: “I had a sort of a philosophical crisis… I was unhappy for some time. I got into a lot of trouble. I used to drink a lot. That was a hard time in my life.”
