Discussion Why are you on this forum?

[QuickandPainless]

I'm probably both but I'm curious to see what brought people to this forum.

 

[Johnnythefox]

I found this site when looking for information on the exit bag method.
Just as well I did otherwise I would have made a mess of it.

 

[MsM3talGamer]

I was desperate to find a painless method and to talk to like-minded people. I got effing tired of the idiotic pro-lifers spouting cliched nonsense at me at the Reddit Suicide Watch. Mostly, I need a safe space to discuss the taboo topic of suicide and I'm glad to have found it.

I am set on CTB but before I do I had a huge urge to talk with like minded sufferers. So I searched for suicide websites with little success at first until I came across a blog talking about SS. Since joining SS, my days aren't so dull anymore.

I was surprised to find this site too. It's comforting to talk about this without people spouting suicide helpline type shit at you.

 

[killing me softly]

i originally came to continue gathering info on planning. but i have now stayed because the peeps are quite fun to be around.

I'm no longer alone when I'm discussing suicide methods and thoughts.

 

[LostBoy]

I came here because I found the place when looking at my sons history (he CTB in July last year) suicide has been on my mind everyday since he died in different ways, one being understanding what he was thinking and feeling and then to my own thoughts about my life.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I found the place through my brother who also ctb. I feel you.

 

[NotWorthLiving]

Wanted support with my choice not against it

 

[2 be or not]

Because I believe suicide should be established as a global custom supported by the international medical community so that humans can have the freedom to die with dignity if that is their personal preference.

To figure out or learn about the best way to ctb

 

[Darrenloses]

I Found it while trying to find a painless way to die. I'm more of a lurker, I feel like I have nothing to add to any discussion, on or off topic. All I'll say now is I'm either going full or partial suspension. I do have a pullup bar and was either gonna use a belt or extension cable.

 

[Dead_Inside]

Just glad to find a place where I can say I am tried and I want to die without everyone freaking out or telling me to "stay" .... hey sometimes things don't get better....

 

[TAW122]

I'm on this site because I know there are many others on here that share the same sentiments, beliefs, and views in regards to suicide. They are also among some of the most logical, rational people I have ever talked about. This is also a place where I can share my views honestly without the pro-lifers, anti-suicide people who push the stigma of suicide and death on me. Finally, most importantly, I am able to discuss about methods on here, even specific details on how to obtain and procure it, thus making this forum really valuable for me. There is by far no other place other than this forum that has everything in one package, therefore, this place is like my sanctuary away from the cruel, unjust world.

 

[Muri]

I originally came to find a method and have a few chats. But now I'm not sure why I'm still here.

 

[stellabelle]

Definitely both. It helps to cope with these thoughts until I depart this realm.

 

[Ntothed]

Peace of mind, information and the community

 

[GhostedToast]

both, especially to not feel so alone and be able to talk anonymously where no one knows who i really am.

 

[Kyrok]

I couldn't express myself as honestly on anti-suicide forums.

 

[Deafsn0w]

I want to die

 

[Kyrok]

I want to die

Lol

 

[IfHeDiesHeDies]

I am here because I am waiting to die and I can no longer connect to the living world. This place is as close to death as I can find in the living world.

How to get a ticket

 

[15dec]

First I was trying to recover, the mental health team shut me down and made me feel worse. I tried joining a suicide support group but when I told a user that if he ctb it was likely his son would grow up feeling lost and possibly being bullied (as happened with my cousin's son) and that his kids could be a reason for him to live, another user was saying how it was triggering or guilt tripping or something, so I left the site feeling more like shit. Those two occasions alongside lots of other things going wrong in my life led to me giving up completely and attempting partial twice. That didn't work so I kept trying to research what went wrong until I stumbled across SS several pages into google. Now I've stayed to research more methods, interact with the community and feel less alone, and have people who understand me.

...one being understanding what he was thinking and feeling and then to my own thoughts about my life.

i'm affected by your desire to find insight into why he made his decision. for years after my mother committed suicide my feelings were hurt, anger, guilt, among others. i wasn't able to see past my own emotions to try to understand what she went through in her very chaotic life. kudos to you for seeing past your own emotions to seek this understanding. i imagine you may share some of the same feelings i had/have about my mother's suicide but i hope for you that being here helps alleviate the burden.

 

[Titania]

To speak about suicide without any judgement. It's such a controversial topic that no ones likes to discuss and the people on here are so open with their feelings and helpful on how you aren't alone in wanting to die. Mostly out of curiosity because I used to frequently attempt CTB but I never knew how many safer techniques rather how unsuccessful ones I've done. I don't know if I'll ever find the courage to CTB but I know I still have my suicidal tendencies and want to talk about them openly somewhere without being judged. And if I decide to do it with my own hands then I want it to do the right way.

I would like to find a partner an read every day the partner's megathread.

 

[Circles]

After the first r/SanctionedSuicide on Reddit got banned I kept trying to find another online community that would just accept my thoughts and beliefs on suicide as a rational choice. Plus I literally have no one to talk to about it without being ridiculed with shame and pointless platitudes.
