Hey Guest,
We wanted to share a quick update with the community.
Our public expense ledger is now live, allowing anyone to see how donations are used to support the ongoing operation of the site.
👉 View the ledger hereOver the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.
If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

"Drink water." lmao.
That kind of turned into a joke between my brother and me, though.Last edited:"Don't drink coffee"
"Eat proper meals"
"Eat chocolate"

"Work more"

As long as no one ever says to me "go to the gym" because that will bring me out in hives. I've never been in one, I'm not going to start. I'm imaging men in weird shorts and those ill-fitting vests and grubby towels and the smell of rubber and women flicking ponytails. Ugh
Lol, omg some people just make me laugh. "yea, cause thats exactly what I wanna do, stay sad mhm"I hate the old, "What do you have that you even stress about..." yet they know VERY little to nothing about you.

Agreed, even if they know you, this is annoying. Maybe moreso.

"Exercise more!" I get this from my internet friends. I'm anorexic. I exercise 4.5 hours a day.
Also saying "you are too good too die," I mean 1) I'm not and 2) If I was I'd deserve to end my suffering.

At this point I hate so much the standard "see a therapist" or "get on meds" advice. People will not accept that these things don't help everyone, and that there are certain circumstances of my life that cannot be changed by therapy or meds.

I wrote elsewhere about a professor of social work who has a very popular blog on mental health and suicide. It's her position that there are no rational suicides, that suicidal people just haven't learned how to deal with our lives. And, of course, drugs and therapy would change this...

"Try to think positive, being negative isn't helping anything."
While there's some truth to that statement, it still annoys the hell out of me.

Was it this person? https://www.speakingofsuicide.com/2013/05/19/why-stop-someone-from-suicide/
I can't remember if I got that link from this site or not... but anyway that post is super enraging but the comments mostly all disagree with her so it's very cathartic to read.

Yes, that's the ... (struggling to find even a neutral word so I'll just say being). Despite all the contradictory comments she gets, she ignores most of them, smug in the knowledge that the centers of power--the courts, the police, hospitals...--agree with her.
