Fox has always been up front about the fact that she was a sex worker, an addict, that she has endured extreme harm. In Down the Drain, she describes her parents as almost operatically neglectful — there are refusals to intervene after overdoses, affairs with best friends’ parents, and it sometimes takes weeks for them to notice their daughter is missing. She writes that she has overdosed more than once: as a teenager on PCP, coming to in an ambulance “with vomit all around,” and years later on a New Orleans trip involving trap houses, guns, and heroin. Best friends are ripped away via rehab or death, and Fox has a miscarriage in a bathroom bar without ever having known that she was pregnant. Call me old-fashioned, but I do appreciate a sense of reflection in my memoirs... This felt more like an essay collection in the way that it was more just a recitation of events. While Fox has clearly been through a lot in life, the major takeaway from having read this is the book feels shallow when compared to those experiences. This in some ways feels odd as the book talks about other ways some of these events had previously been turned into art that Fox could process some of these things through.

The good-survivor archetype has forgotten much of what she knows and feels in exchange for credibility, and yet she isn’t taken entirely seriously, either, except by other strong women. When I think of this brand of survivor, parroting the party line to the last, I always imagine a conference room filled with other survivors applauding, which is meant to be its own reward. But beyond the conference room’s doors, this kind of survivorhood is viewed as a special-interest group at best — a knitting club for the formerly unwell.
