okay so i just went down a strange and disturbing tumblr rabbit hole of people like,,. encouraging starvation? and like? saying "you don't need to eat food it's a want not a need" and also just,, glorifying eating disorders? even sexualizing them,. ;w; the internet can be scary,,.

it's even more disturbing that this kind of content is mainly aimed towards kids/ teens /preteens ,, like,,. that's not okay to encourage

just remember that like. yes you do need to eat. if you don't you will quite literally die? it's essential to life,.

ALSO!! **it's okay to go on diets!! just remember to eat enough food an stay healthy :3***

but,. just doing it bc ur insecure or dysmorphic isn't good for you. it can be physically damaging and exhausting mentally too,.

i know i can't like,, magically stop people from having eating disorders. i am aware of the complexities.

if you're currently experiencing this i'm sure that you've probably heard people tell this to you and that you know this already,. but in case if you haven't, that's why i'm saying it. or, if you're planning on doing it or feeling pressured. it's not a good thing to get into,.,,,

and if ur struggling with this just know ur loved <3 yall r awesome ^^
