  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

Does anyone like being depressed? I'm honestly asking because I feel the need to know if there are others. I wonder if it's just Anhedonia or maybe some mental thing where I like the feeling of being so sad I can't move, and the feeling of self hatred and total lack of empathy. I feel like it gives my life purpose. It's always been this way. I like to argue and I like to see others in pain, including myself. I just want to know if others feel the same.

Oh, trust me. It's totally fine! Such a thing happened to me a few years ago too. Basically, I was like any human; emotional, talkative, etc.

But some switch flipped and I just... don't know why, but I lost all emotions, became apathetic, etc.

The part where you like seeing others on pain... well, there's always this part on me that's like that but I usually suppress it, since I might risk schizophrenia otherwise. And it's not something I wanna deal with anytime soon.

To sum all this up, it's totally fine to feel the way you do! Anyway, if you're new to this state and need help with a few questions, you can ask

dont know if this applies to you but i know for me i feel similar because its how ive felt for so long that its become comforting and familiar. happiness seems so far away and foreign to me that its almost scary. i think i also feel like i deserve to be depressed because of self esteem issues, the idea of me being happy almost angers me bc i feel like i shouldnt be happy.
as far as liking to argue and see others in pain, at the moment i dont relate to that, but i know in the past i have been like that. im not entirely sure, but i think for me it stemmed from my own self hatred and also hatred of the world that caused me to feel the way i do, i felt like others also didnt deserve to be happy because it wasnt fair. im not sure why i dont feel like this anymore, it just kinda changed at some point. but you're definitely not alone in how you feel. hope this made sense.
