        I'm very happy about this, it's no joke having loved ones purging and seeing the damage happening. I would however, prefer to see #eatingdisorders given the proper funding so that the ED can be tackled correctly, not just a knee jerk reaction. They will be purchased unregulated.

        Yeah, I see the point. But to be honest it's abit like all the people in charge have only just woken up to the possibilities of self harm... but knee jerk reaction isn't going to help. There isn't enough treatment and support for people.
