I got this idea from a pro-ana site I used to go on (and still do when I'm having a bad day if I am totally honest). There a lot of the girls and guys who were from the same countries or areas exchanged mobile/cell numbers so they could text each other encouragement to not eat.

So I thought, why don't we just reverse it! If anyone is struggling with not fasting or binging then they can post on here that they are looking for a ED buddy and if someone from the same country wants one too, No you may not Yes some people can turn to friends or family, but not everyone can and its always easier to talk to someone who knows what you are going through!

I don't know if anyone else will think this is a good idea but I thought it could work as it did "help" me when I was doing the pro-ana version.

Also, if anyone reads this who has recovered from their ED wants to be a buddy then that would be great! Those who have recovered are going to have the best tips really!

Uh. No.
For starters, this is very a pro-ana/mia technique, and I realize you're using it for better, but... I can't see this ending in anything other than promoting EDs.

Secondly, you may absolutely not share phone numbers on the forum. It's against the rules, and asking for trouble.
