  • 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].

Well I haven't been on SS so much this summer. I was busy sort of reinventing myself or so I thought. Now, not so sure, it's been a bit of a crazy summer. Started off very upbeat. My son moved out of my mum's, a huge relief at least to me. Mum seemed strangely unaffected. I was able to help her out with lots of stuff and felt newly confident and purposeful. Along the way I decided I want to move down there, to the seaside town where I grew up. I felt like it would be a way to start afresh and leave behind the memories and associations of my London life. I realise now that this is not the best reason to move because it's like, running away right? I found another social housing tenant who wanted to swap but it wasn't the town I'd initially wanted. Thought I'd go ahead but over the last 2 days I had second thoughts. It is too big a step to go somewhere that isn't even my first choice, to a flat that is a downgrade from where I am now. There's no rush. Getting back home felt good.

Then there's all the family stuff. I have a 'mother', a 'brother', a 'son' and I had a 'dad'. Honestly they are more like random acquaintances than 'loved ones', and I had just never fully acknowledged this to myself. It does explain a lot. Guess all of us have some kind of attachment disorder or something. I think my mum has DID but on the surface she passes as normal. Never sought help or been diagnosed with anything. So I was left for decades thinking that my mental illness was some sort of personal weakness. Seeing what they are really like makes me happy I am not like them at least. I realise my son and I have a lot more in common than I thought. We both grew up without love. Both been scapegoated or shunned. Unheard, unseen, unknown.
