i dont know if anyone brought this idea to the board. i thoiught about it today at school. i was wondering has anyone ever thought of sharing their number with each other on here so that wen were not online but need support we can reach out.
i thought about it today at school at lunch i wanted to go purge but i knew that i should and i took out my phone and just wished that i had someone to talk to about it..i have therapists that i cant text but i wish i had someone that was going through wat im going through

I actually like that idea. There is people on here I wish I could text when I am feeling weak and really want to purge also. Sometimes we are in environments where we can't call our therapist because we either can't or don't want others to hear.

yea or in my case sometimes i feel like im not bad enough to have to contact my therapist..it cud be like a mobile support kind of thing

There is alot of times I feel like I am not bad enough off to call my therapist. I am sure I probably am, but I can never find the courage to. I have once and it was because I was about to cut myself. Just Wednesday actually.

Sorry i didnt respond. Hope you are doing better today. I wish i could text my therapist. she doesnt have texting...so i just have to call her. which makes it hard for the times when i cant call like work, at home with my parents, out to dinner, out with people, etc. I really hope you are doing better today...at least one of us. I am not doing well AT ALL. probably worse than i was a few days ago.

I think thats nice, but in this day and age you have to be careful on that stuff. I would not recomend giving your number to anyone on the internet

yea its a great idea but like what cab411 said about people this day and age and its so hard to trust on the Web. What about setting up a seperate email that you can use with others and reachout on that. if you have a smart phone then you can check it even more? just a thought

It's a good idea for those in need of it :) great thinking!
