Try not to listen to tiktoks too much. These people don’t know you at all and are just saying stuff to get a lot of likes and get on the fyp. I know that can be hard though. I got one talking about a movie and it said that if your favorite character was this one you’re bi... but that literally makes no sense. Like these people have no ideas who we are and our struggles and they’re just saying things to get on the fyp

i would really recommend you get off tik tok completely because sh*t there is toxic af. im not specifically talking about what you mentioned but generally tik tok is the number one spot for triggers since people are so comfortable there. i don't go on tik tok anymore and it really helped me focus on more important things in my life. however if you don't wanna leave the platform for any reason try monitoring your fyp by marking triggering content as not interested

Yeah I've been marking it not interested.. I don't go on very often.. in fact i only recently made an account.. and you are right there is a lot of toxic shit on there. I tried reporting some ED stuff and tt didn't give a crap at all. I guess I just wanted to give it a fair shot before denouncing it.

@watertilt You could put a lock on it too so that you don’t go on it too often. I had to take break for a while because it gave me really bad body image ideas, which made me think no boys will like, which then fed into my hocd

@watertilt they don't put trigger warning for EDs? btw im glad you don't go there that often it's for the best or at least that's what I think, to each their own i guess.

@watertilt Yes. While there are sides of it I enjoy and I’ve been able to weed out that stuff to just see more funny things, there are parts of it that can be harmful. I once saw one that said if you don’t date the same sex you’re homophobic 🤔

@Madeline Yes I saw that pre-ocd thought it was totally foolish. Now it would have made spaghetti of my brain..

@watertilt oh my god yes I've seen this. especially those backhanded compliments towards skinny girls that are like "oh i guess i will starve myself to death today🧚♀️✨". the community is sooo messed up

@Madeline And yeah there are some nice parts but the way that tiktok doesn't care a single bit about reports and it's users really concerns me... All social media has a seedy underbelly but they at least take reports seriously and delete the really bad shit.. tiktok.. doesn't even look..they just send a notif 2 seconds later that it's not a violation without looking.. It's a bit disturbing.. they allow ed hashtags but #ocd is banned.. 🤷🏾♀️

@feethebee Yessss... So many of these toxic vibes are directed at minors too.. it's... Bleh.. The reason I got it in the first place is because my dad is addicted to it and he said I'm hating on it without knowing anything.. so I got on.. but yeah.. bleh

@watertilt Yes. But just remember none of these people know us and our struggles and what we like. They will never meet us so we shouldn’t let their words dictate our lives
