'I would never want to harm someone who shares my struggle,' said the singer. (via toofab)

"I would never want to harm someone who shares my struggle," Halsey wrote as part of a subsequent apology after the initial post was met with significant backlash.I am very sorry for posting a photo of myself depicting my struggle with ED without a sufficient trigger warning. I was very nervous to post it and didn’t think properly. I had positive intentions. I would never want to harm someone who shares my struggle."TW: disordered eating.

Even in response to this apology, many of her followers kept piling on that she had not put a sufficient TW before sharing that initial post, while others came to her defense. This despite Halsey admitting that she was perhaps emotionally fragile and triggered at the moment of doing it in response to the prompt to target her lowest point.

According to the ongoing debate in the thread, Halsey had abbreviated her TW so as to not be flagged by IG algorithms for self-harm, but clearly it wasn't enough for some people and the post was quickly removed.

TooFab So she has to apologize for posting honest pictures and bringing awareness to a serious issue but meanwhile the Kartrashians/Jenners are plastered everywhere showing everything but their insides. 🙄

TooFab Halsey is awesome and didn’t need to apologize for anything.

TooFab People in their 20s are giant pussies anymore.
