Messaging Guidelines

The National Alliance for Eating Disorders recognizes that mental health topics, including eating disorders, can be difficult to talk about. It is important, as advocates, that we use language which is inclusive, affirming, and non-triggering.

Please refer to the messaging guidelines and images below when posting/sharing about NOT ONE MORE Weekend on your digital channels, social media, email, and/or other platforms. The more you share about NOT ONE MORE Weekend and The Alliance, the more educated the community becomes!

    • Share with The Alliance. Include the hashtag #NOTONEMORE and #EatingDisordersAwarenessWeek, and tag @alliancefored in all posts and stories

    • Invite others to participate. Highlight NOT ONE MORE Weekend’s free, virtual events with your online communities and encourage others to participate.

    • Raise funds, make a direct impact, and earn exclusive swag! As a fundraiser for NOT ONE MORE Weekend, you can earn amazing swag from popular brand partners. Raise just $50 to receive an exclusive NOM Weekend t-shirt. Click here to learn more about raising money to fund The Alliance’s free, weekly, therapist-led, virtual eating disorder support groups.

    • Share your story! Help smash the stigma by telling your personal connection to eating disorders or The Alliance, by sharing your story in a non-triggering manner.

    • Amplify the Weekend. Find other ways to promote and amplify NOT ONE MORE Weekend, such as sharing with/tagging other organizations you are a part of, or forwarding to/tagging friends.

    • Activate your community. By encouraging friends, family, and your online community to participate in NOT ONE MORE Weekend – whether by attending any/all of the three days of virtual events, or engaging in social media actions – more community members will be able to access specialized support.

    • Be inclusive and affirming. Use inclusive language that does not discriminate based on, make assumptions about, or otherwise demean individuals’ age, race, sex, gender, socioeconomic status, eating disorder diagnoses, ability, body shape/size, etc.

    • Validate other people’s experiences. Even if they differ from yours, please validate others’ experiences and journeys with experiencing and recovering from eating disorders.

    • Emphasize that there is help, there is hope, and that recovery is possible.

    • Don’t use triggering language. Please refrain from specific mentions of foods, numbers (including calories and weight), eating disorder symptoms/behaviors, medications, violence/trauma, and diet products.

    • Don’t make generalizations. People who experience eating disorders or other mental illnesses may have experiences that differ from your own. Not everyone’s experience is the same.

    • Don’t use harmful language. Do not use potentially triggering terminology, shame others, use offensive language, or other derogatory words.

    • Use person-first language. Your mental illness(es) don’t define you! Rather than saying “an Anorexic individual,” we encourage saying “an individual experiencing Anorexia Nervosa.”

    • Share with your community and constituency. Please help promote NOT ONE MORE Weekend’s free, virtual, three-day event with your supporters and audiences on social media, via email, and through other communications.

    • Utilize designed graphics. For consistency, please use the appropriate, pre-designed graphics on the following pages to help promote the event. If you choose to create your own assets, please follow the guidelines on this page.

      • NOM Weekend General (includes Weekend promotional materials, general eating disorder information, and more)

      • Day of Help (encourages your community to contact The Alliance’s free, therapist-staffed helpline, visit findEDhelp.com, or text “ALLIANCE” to 741741 in order to connect to specialized care)

      • Day of Support (promotes the Weekend’s free, 16 hour support group marathon)

      • Day of Recovery (invites community members to Stories of Hope and Recovery, as well as join in on our social “One Day, You Will” campaign.

    • Highlight intersections between eating disorders and the issues/populations you serve. Eating disorders rarely exist without co-occurring illnesses and often intersect with other issues. We encourage you to clearly draw the connection for your community between eating disorders and the issues you care about.

    • Remind individuals that recovery is possible. There is help and there is hope!
