Moderation Message:
We all want TSR, and especially the Mental Health Support Society to be a safe place for users to get support and constructive, helpful advice. We do not want anyone to get triggered or feel worse as a result of posts on the site, whether that would be a response to your post, or a separate post made by another user. It is for this reason that we have rules relating to self harm and suicide discussion.
Please note that our current policy is that any discussion of suicide or self-harm is not permitted, whether that's writing about contemplating it, or discussing methods. We also cannot allow code words to get around the suicide/self-harm discussion ban. It is important to note that this includes anything written in spoiler tags. Please also remember that posts that do not directly mention self harm or suicide, but imply or hint about it, may also be triggering for users.
The reasons for this policy are:
- We are not professionally trained to deal with serious, potentially dangerous issues like this. We feel that directing people to appropriate help is safer than posting on TSR about it.
- Often messages about these types of feelings end up getting replies which are at best well-intentioned but unhelpful and at worst downright malicious. We would never want someone to be made to feel worse for posting about their feelings.
- There is a real risk of both triggering other users and increasing dangerous behaviour by allowing discussion of self-harm methods etc.
We do not want TSR to be seen to be a site which encourages or promotes self-harm.
Unfortunately, moderators are not able to monitor all posts in the site all the time, and therefore we rely on the report function to help us become aware of problematic posts. If you see a post about self harm, suicide or something that is triggering, please use the report function to bring it to our attention.
If you have any queries about moderation, please make a thread in Ask a Health & Relationships Moderator, and a moderator will reply to you as soon as possible.

- anxiety
- eating disorders (there's also a dedicated thread to this, same with anxiety)
- borderline personality disorder (BPD)
- schizophrenia
- schizoaffective disorder
- undiagnosed people who suspect they have something
- people with an insatiable urge to bite other people

Fair enough. Well you already know what I have, I suppose. I don't think I had a medical eating disorder but I did get a problem in the last year or so. I've gained my weight in fat!

Sorry to hear about all that You're def in the right place, though - people are very supportive in here Thank you. I'm generally okay. I just get afraid/worried about the randomest thing like I couldn't cross the road when I moved to my new apt
. Also, I'm a tad compulsive . I've probably never had depression, more anxiety. How are you coping with ur depression?
