for example
"I fainted"
"I fainted and it scared me quite a lot, I could do with some hugs"

"I purged more than once today"
"I purged more than once and I feel as though it is getting a out of control"

"I binged worse than I ever have before"
"I binged, and I'm worried this will be a huge set-back in my recovery"


does that make sense? can people see how the first statement sare more competitive than the second, and how the second would result in much better support?
Well put, if it had this kind of groudrule - then it's likely to be more supportive and less triggering, and it would possibly discourage against individual threads where people post merely about negative behaviours they have done, and more about feelings.

There's SI and ED stuff I have done years ago (now 7 years free) that I still have alot of shame about. It's difficult to share it with anyone, because fear that someone might have thoughts of doing similiar
