The feedback to my survey for bloggers who write about eating disorders has been fantastic. I’ve had about 270 people take the survey, although not all completed it. The survey is rather long – 40 questions – but very few of the questions are fill in the blank so I think you can complete it within 15 minutes or so. If you start it, please, please finish it! I can’t include uncompleted surveys!

For those just tuning in, the survey addresses bloggers who write about eating disorders or eating disorder recovery. The purpose of this is to gauge the effectiveness and role of blogging in eating disorder recovery, so if your blog is pro-ana/mia or if you don’t want to recover, please do not take the survey. The survey is open to people of all ages, genders and who suffer from any kind of eating disorder, from anorexia to orthorexia to compulsive overexercising to binge eating disorder. You need not have an official diagnosis to participate.

I will be closing the survey probably at the end of the month, so don’t delay. My awesome programmer brother is coming over this weekend to help me parse the data and create a database to filter the results. And, I also find out this month if my proposal to present this research at a national conference has been accepted.

Take the survey.
