How did you find SS?

[vanillamilkshakes]

For me, it was this BBC article that started it all.

 

[treestumpbootsneo]

Googled pro suicide sites, since most seemed anti suicide

 

[BlueButterfly19]

Funny enough found this site by google searching one of my friend's usernames. If it weren't for them I probably never would have found this site.

 

[allinvain]

a certain man's correlation to other internet subcultures and this site

 

[Warlord's Pulse]

Can't even remember lol, been a lurker for so long. Don't usually remember the "prologue" of anything, tho

 

[Forever Sleep]

Researching methods and came across SN and The New York Times article.

There used to be a poll in the sticky threads:

How did you first hear about / find your way to SanctionedSuicide? (2nd poll)

It was back in 2020 on a reddit forum, I think r/suicidewatch since all the others had been banned by then and someone commented to me on there about this place

sanctioned-suicide.net

Tantacrul is (unsurprisingly) in the lead...

 

[Agon321]

I don't remember exactly how I did it, but if I remember correctly, I was looking for information about inert gas and somehow ended up here.

 

[Deathw!sh]

I googled something.

 

[Sutter]

Internets search, yup internets.

I was looking for information and authentic humans. Must have been like the 14th page load, a line from this site popped up. Thats how I was landed here, sheer dumb luck.

I know super crazy amazing story, well not really. The people are amazing though and honest at SaSu. That is a priceless fortune to come by these days.

Thank you for sharing your hopes, dreams, pain , suffering, love, and a small peak at the essence of who you are. It is appreciated.

I wanted to learn more about SN and SaSu popped up on Google. Which kinda surprised me with how much Google doesn't show. I genuinely feel so comforted having found this place and knowing that so many others did. I haven't posted a lot but I do feel some support anytime I get a notification that someone has reacted to my messages.

I do actually think that is incredible luck. But it also speaks of your perseverance to dig through 14 pages of results to find the information you seek. I'm not sure if I could.

Hard agree.

That must have been an awkward conversation afterwards... or did you never tell them? Lol

 

[FlufflesAway]

Yup, bbc articles led me here. the bbc have a lot of blood on their hands

 

[Sutter]

I do actually think that is incredible luck.

Well honestly I figure you dont make it 51 years in this life on luck alone. Perseverance, that is kind of you, but yes I went pretty hard at life and weathered a bit just be being tenacious, sometimes stubborn goes a long way. I feel alot more refined with perseverance, makes me think Im a bit noble.

Best you sir,maam best to you.

Googling methods

Tantacrul's Video. My god, he's a shill

 

[BlueButterfly19]

I never told them LOL

 

[lamy2006]

Tantacrul: my God I recently rewatched the video, just to make sure my initial assesment of the video was correct.
I think my assessment held up, i still hate that video. Something about the way he speaks.
It feels like he's trying to be authentic / genuine but failing. Also the points he made just haven't held up, especially after being here for any amount of time.

I came here for methods and lurked, years ago now. Only recently made an account.

 

[shrizoid]

I was just googling suicide methods and such and eventually found this place

 

[maka]

A Reddit deep dive

 

[pointblank]

I was searching about N on a 4chan archive and an anon mentioned the site.

 

[foreverlanguish]

Saw this site on a Google search while looking for methods. Lucky find!

 

[lapislazu]

I think I had just google searched suicide methods, and in some Wikepedia article, this website was mentioned

 

[CallmeWill4719]

Back in the day, we were on reddit haha, I remember multiple subs being created to bypass the dumb rules then they gave up and made this website.

 

[let.me.let.go87]

I can't exactly remember because I've had ECT since joining, but I do remember that I had to search for it and I first read about it on some news article that didn't give the name

 

[Namelesa]

Tantacrul's video. Him making that video has probably done the opposite of what he wanted and got more people to find this site.

 

[Violet7]

Someone on Reddit mentioned it, I had never heard about it prior. It's really helpful having an avenue like this or we can talk freely about our feelings instead of being forced to stifle them or edit them.

 

[ShatteredSerenity]

Once I got serious about CTB and realized how difficult it is, I started Googling for all kinds of methods and this site popped up multiple times with exactly the info I was looking for.

 

[CTBsteve]

I heard about people advocating for the right to be able to chose to CTB online a couple years ago and felt like I supported that but never really looked into it too much. I felt connected to self harm communities before in the past and saw some of them reference "SaSu" so I googled it out of curiosity and landed here.

Same here. Wiki article mentioned SaSu.
