Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.

they are not. suicidal thoughts arent normal. violent impulses arent normal. delusions and hallucinations arent normal.

The things you see in pro*** and thi**** tags are not normal.

Unregulated ED communities without the presence of a mental health professional are virtually always dangerously toxic.

Gaining weight is not a sin.

You do not need to fast, skip meals, or count macros or calories.

Being underweight is more dangerous than being overweight, and losing weight through unhealthy means will hurt you more and faster than weighing above a certain BMI (both physically and mentally).

The “healthy” BMI range is almost certainly skewed lower than it should be. Many people considered “overweight” are healthy, and mortality rates increase below BMI 20.

Being underweight is not healthy, glamorous, or enjoyable.

You need to eat more than 1200 calories daily.

Eating disorders are deadly, miserable, and isolating, and when left untreated long enough, they will destroy your dreams, relationships, passions, health, and future.

Anyone with disordered eating habits is “sick enough” to deserve help.

It is always better to get help sooner rather than later (that applies to ANY mental health issue).

EATING DISORDERS WILL KILL YOU.

🌸You are TOO GOOD to put junk like that into your body.

🌸You are TOO SMART to take orders from food.

🌸You are SO STRONG nothing will stop you from reaching your goals.

🌸You are a GREAT person who deserves their dream body.

🌸You are SO IMPORTANT others will look up to you and your determination.

🌸You are SO MODEST that you forget all these things that make you enough.

🌸Yes, you are enough,

i’m pro-recovery,

but not for me.
