Or I *could* help a bunch of impressionable young girls not die.

I know when I had an eating disorder, it totally worked when people tried to save my life! I definitely didn't resent them at all for it.

Congrats.

You're here, aren't you?

Resentful, maybe, yeah. But you're here. And that kinda just proves the AYRT's point.

Are you for real?

I'm not here because someone on the internet tried to save me. I'm here because I made a personal choice that I wasn't going to let ED kill me.

No one can make that choice for anyone else. ED is about control as much as it's about food or body image. When you try to nursemaid people or strip them of their autonomy, it only makes them more determined to self-destruct.

I have to agree with this. Meanspo does sound really, really terrible, but as with pretty much all the outward behaviors of eating disorders, it's a symptom for more than it's a cause. And when I had an ED, people trying to forcibly stop my eating disordered behaviors only made me commit to my eating disorder even harder.

*far more than it's a cause.

You're not helping. You're not a doctor, you're not a psychiatrist, you are in no way the help that they need. You're some random person on the internet that literally no one is going to listen to. All you're going to do is make them feel worse.

But feeling worse is the whole point of the tag, so either way, I can't really fuck it up, can I?

It might not make them *feel* worse. But it will absolutely reinforce their behavior.

The person you replied to doesn't seem to have any understanding of how ED works.
