In regards to what @Blueberrybook @MuddyBoots and @raspberrytorte have posted I wanted to add a thought.


Like many of us on here I have PTSD. I do not think a single person on here would think it was acceptable to post details of a trauma on here because we all know that there are lots of us who have PTSD. Doing so once would probably bother people but would be tolerated. I don't think anyone expects that it is ok to post about trauma repeatedly on this forum because it would hurt others. That doesn't even need discussion. PTSD is discussed on the PTSD board which can be avoided by someone like me who knows it would be bad for them. In the same way I think discussions of detailed ED symptoms not directly related to BP belong on the ED board and weight loss centered posts belong on the weight loss and exercise board. That lets people choose what they are reading.

We need to keep this a safe space and that means looking out for others as well as sharing our own lives.
