AboutFor those of us who can't handle things as well as others and find other ways to cope. People can come to help each other out, make friends who'll understand, discuss, etc without fear of judgement. If you just want to rant, if you're tired of people telling you to fix your "problems" or if you're looking for someone to tell you to do so.
Even if you aren't necessarily anorexic or self-mutilating, all are welcome. But, please don't come here if you are just looking for weight loss. I highly encourage you to find a community for healthy dieting. The people who are here because of anorexia have an actual illness. If you aren't sure whether or not you have an eating disorder, you probably don't and if you're "thinking of trying anorexia" this is not the place for you. It is not something we "try". Either you've got it or you don't, and I didn't set up this community so self-injury and eating disorders can be glorified.
This community is for those who are pro-eating disorders, who know someone with an eating disorder or who self-injures and those who are recovering. Pretty well anyone except judgmental assholes.
I will try my best to keep a level of civility within this community.
Rules:
1. Absolutely no pictures of emaciated men or women without an LJ-cut and warning. Posting none at all is better, if only to spare those who are easily influenced and can't trust themselves to not look.
2. Don't be mean.
3. Anything that may be viewed as "triggering" must be hidden under an LJ-cut with appropriate warnings. Saying you don't know how to do an LJ-cut is not an excuse. The tag is as follows:
<lj-cut text="Whatever you want the link to say in between the brackets">
and then at the end:
</lj-cut>
I'm also NOT trying to encourage people to restrict their eating or hurt themselves. If you are suffering from these problems and are in any real danger, you should probably seek help. Even if you don't enter a hospital or go on medication, it doesn't hurt to have someone to talk to. Every little bit helps.
But you can talk to us.
