As someone who wish to seek help I will forever defend this website

So if you saw my "goodbye " post earlier a few weeks ago I am sorry to announce that I was too much of a pussy to actually go through it . (There were some complications with my method).

However that's not the goal of this post , I just want to say to anyone who's here "undercover" you don't understand people here and you never will.

First of all to assume the reason why people want to die is because they're depressed and sad is already an indicator that you don't understand enough about us (not to say that's not the case of most suicides). There's so many factors that play into not wanting to participate in this society , even if I got everything I ever wanted I still wouldn't want to be alive just for the simple fact that I don't wish to exist I don't see why I have to provide an explanation as to why I DONT WISH TO EXIST. That's is literally my business alone.

This is a safe space for people to be understood and understand others , I have not seen one person forcing someone to die here. Now the controversy is the "steps" that's provided on different CTB method which I will agree I see where the concern is but at the same time if someone is already here that's prove they will at some point go along with it , in MY OPINION I would rather a loved on passed on peacefully then to struggle and go trough pain in their final moments.

Yep. Most people here even discourage others from ctb if they are not 100% sure. I think parents of the people who ctb want to have an easy answer to why their child is gone so they just blame this site instead of looking at the bigger picture. I don't really blame them tho

This .yes i think the same thing people put blame on the website because its convinient and easy much easier than them having to think about actual cause

There are unfounded accusations against a forum that aims to provide support to those facing difficult situations, claiming that it encourages suicide. In reality, it is paradoxical to observe that it is often the very accusers who promote attitudes and behaviors that push people toward tragic outcomes.
This dynamic can be interpreted through the psychological concept of projection, an unconscious defense mechanism described by Sigmund Freud. Projection involves attributing to others thoughts, emotions, or behaviors that the subject themselves cannot accept or recognize as their own. This process helps alleviate the internal conflict caused by unacceptable impulses or feelings of guilt by shifting the responsibility to an external object. In this case, the accusers project their own actions onto the forum, attributing intentions or deeds to it that are, in fact, their own.
This deliberate attempt to manipulate reality, distorting facts and shifting responsibility elsewhere, reveals a profound inability to take accountability for one's own actions and a disheartening willingness to twist reality for personal gain.

Like many others have said on previous occasions, this Forum does more to help people keep going and struggle on than most real life "help" resources.
Something which many of us truly desperate folk know and appreciate.

I do not understand how the website can be blamed for anything. Everybody who is here had to register, actively log in, search for information, ask questions, communicate with others, and do any kind of actions willingly. Users are not allowed to push other users to do anything, which is also sometimes mentioned in individual posts.

Being here is similar to contacting Dignitas and going forward. They use the approach of never initiating any part of the process themselves. Every following step has to be initiated by the applicant, otherwise the organization stops any form of communication. And whatever people do here kind of reminds me of that. They search for information and take actions actively and of their own free will. How difficult is it for people outside of this website to understand that?
