• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

People with alcoholism are up to 120 times more likely to commit suicide than those who are not dependent on alcohol.

29% of suicide victims in America are found with alcohol in their system.

Understand that i know a quite a few of us here drink and when we ctb alcohol can help lower the anxiety that builds up before the attempt. So i want to discuss it with y'all the do's and dinners don'ts.

  1. Do not drink cheap liquor/alcohol - impurities will make everything bad about drinking even worse
  2. Eat first - you will be able to control yourself easier and won't get drunk as fast
  3. Do not talk to anyone when you are drunk - you greatly risk spilling the beans about you ctb'ing

What about with the SN method? Everything I've read says you have to fast? I'm an alcoholic, and I know I'll probably want a final drink before ctb.

"People with alcoholism are up to 120 times more likely to commit suicide than those who are not dependent on alcohol."

I agree with everything you've said here, I just want to point out that correlation is not necessarily causation. In this case, people aren't always suicidal because they're alcoholics, they are typically depressed, anxious people who self-soothe with alcohol and would probably be suicidal anyway.

Then again, alcohol is a depressant, and excessive drinking clouds your thinking. The root cause and subsequent effects get hazy. Maybe it's more the chicken and the egg dilemma?

Damn it, I think I've created an infinite regress. Someone fix me a drink while I try to remember the premise of my theory.
