| Name: | A pro-support community | |
| About: | This community is for those who suffer from an eating disorder, and follow a pagan path. We are not pro-ana, and we are not anti-ana, we are a neutral support group for those who need to talk, discuss, and support their fellow peers that are suffering from an eating disorder. We (as a community) also acknowledge that it is an incredible oxymoron to put "eating disorder" and "pagan" in the same sentence. Paganism (wicca, druidry, asatru, etc) speaks so adamantly about self acceptance, self love, and self improvement that one can hardly fathom how someone could suffer from an eating disorder, and call themself a pagan. Paganism does not in any way shape or form advocate hurting your body. We are not a bunch of teenage kids praying to "ana" and reciting "spells" to lose weight. That's simply ludicrous and makes a mockery of the ancient teachings. We are, instead, a group of mature individuals who are trying to understand ourselves and why we feel the need to hurt our bodies. You may post your stats, your problems, personal information, advice, or even just general pagan discussion is welcomed. Absolutely no "pro-ana" tips will be given out in this community, and anyone that asks something like, for instance, "how do I purge?", will be warned we will not answer her question. Also, pagans not suffering from an eating disorder are welcome to join and discuss with us. No one will be banned unless they blatantly flame us for either our beliefs, or our eating disorders which we have no control over. None of us woke up one morning and decided we wanted to have a mental illness. I do not know if I can emphasize that we are not "pro-ana" enough. If you are pro-ana you are more than welcome to join, but as I said, no tips will be given out, only support. Also, I am hoping that this community will not be "triggering" to anyone. It is merely a place to discuss with your peers about your religion, and your eating disorder. This is an open community, however if you are warned twice for inappropriate behavior, your posting privileges will be revoked, but you will remain in the community. If you flame us, you will be banned immediately. Once you join, please introduce yourself. Síochán leat, - Merryck (Alexandra) | |
