the second you start posting your eating disorder publicly- the second you start naming your "goal weight" and your "current weight," the second you post lists of what you ate today, or lists of "proana meals!" or diet plans or cute little calorie tracking calendars, the second you reblog thinspo onto a public blog, the second you put your ed posts in unrelated tags, the second you encourage restriction, REGARDLESS of whether your bio or tags say you're "only pro for yourself," you are contributing to an online community known for sucking in children and giving them life ruining eating disorders. you are no longer "only pro for yourself" because your blog is not "for yourself," it is public, and you are using public tags. you are reblogging from real people and we see when cigarettesanddietcoke reblogs from us, and it's at best uncomfortable and at worst actively triggering. the second you post the details of your disordered thoughts or behavior publicly you are being actively and dangerously irresponsible. you are encouraging disordered behavior in yourself and in others, by way of platforming it on your blog. how can you say it's not harmful to post this stuff when you yourself look at this content to trigger yourself?? it does not matter how many times you say you're "only pro for yourself." you are complicit in others' eating disorders worsening. get a diary. at least private your blog. it's even possible to vent about your eating disorder without encouraging that way of thinking, and that would be the responsible thing to do, and you are actively choosing not to do it. and for the love of god keep your posts out of unrelated tags. eating disorders kill people. at least try not to cause someone to develop or relapse in theirs.
