Anyone else scared that people in public will see them on this forum?

Anyone else scared that people in public will see them on this forum? I'm in a car rn (the backseat) and I'm scared that the people in the other cars will see that I'm on here. I think the car has tinted windows but still it's night so all lights are brighter and more noticeable…

luckily i'm a hikikomori so i am never in publicbut there's an option to hide the Sanctioned Suicide banner in your account settings. doesn't work for me, but i think it's bc i'm on an older version of the site :p ik other users have been able to.

I'm a hiki too but unfortunately I was forced to go somewhere today lol. Thanks for letting me know! I'll look into it

This is why you value your privacy. This is the kind of place you do not want people to find you are in.

not quite in public since i basically go outside once every few months and don't go on sasu while i'm busy doing other things, but i do have a major fear of someone recognizing me somehow on this forum and spreading it around.

having a yt channel and trying to get on music labels and stuff while also being severely depressed / suicidal behind the scenes and going on a site with a bad reputation from all the hit pieces is terrifying. i think i'm just paranoid though, it's not like my name here is linked in any way to other social medias, it's just a little scary

I'm scared of my friends finding out I'm on here. (and viewing my posts ofc)

It's funny really,, I don't give a shit if my family finds me on here or not… yet I'm scared of two strangers on the internet finding this account. this account may not have my social name linked, but my artstyle is recognisable enough for them,, Im scared to even imagine their reactions, considering they get so stressed out over me. sometimes I get scared seeing that they left a message,, I have no idea what it's about until I actually click on it. I dont want them to find out I'm on here,, I don't want them to spend their nights crying over me.

 

[F@#$]

I don't give a fuck what other people think.

 

[GuylumBardot]

Seems rather unlikely that somebody in public would even recognize this site or know what it is

Yeah, I'm scared my family will find out I'm part of this forum.

 

[brokeandbroken]

In terms of people recognizing my story and me I guess not really... To be honest I don't think it would impact me in anyway. In the facility I am at they know I am suicidal, as does my family...

In terms of sitting in a waiting room somewhere and seeing the site... It could make for an awkward conversation... Most people however, are far too self-absorbed to really care.

The reality is outside of an awkward conversation nothing is going to happen. To be honest I've been struggling with this for a long time. I wish a viable solution was available for my situation. Unfortunately I don't believe there to be. Maybe someone may see it, know a way to fix me, and want to help me. In short no.

Yup I usually keep my phone brightness really low when on here

Same, I don't want anyone I know irl to know that I'm on here…and having it spread around sounds mortifying/terrifying. It would suck if people from my high school found out about it, idk I guess I'm still scared of their judgement/being judged by them, even though it's been years. I think they wouldn't believe what I've become (the least successful of the whole class).

To be honest, I rarely access it when I am with people as I am only with people if it is work related or I have to engage with them in some way.

I don't think people will look over my shoulders and recognise the site straightaway - and even if they do, I will not be embarrassed and if they want to come online and check the site out and judge me - it is a reflection of the kind of person that they are and not me.

If one of obe of my clients found out that I am on this forum, I will be worried as my clients are vulnerable and I need to make sure that they don't have the extra concern about being worried about me or worry about approaching me about their stresses and worries..,

 

[mortuarymary]

Don't give a fuck to be fair.

 

[LoiteringClouds]

Fortunately, nobody around me don't understand English

 

[the old man]

If I'm in company then my face isn't glued to a phone ignoring those around me, nothing more ignorant, If I'm sat at home reading through then if asked what I'm reading then I am happy to say, not embarrassed or feel awkward at all.

 

[Banan321]

I feel awkward just going reddit or X in public, not visiting here to say the least. I normally just play chess or daydream to pass the time in public. In private I feel look at whatever and feel comfortable especially since I just live alone.

 

[sammiechzxv]

No because I've never used this forum in public

I also would assume nobody would be close enough to me or be paying enough attention to read anything on my phone

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Whenever I do use it in public, it's never around family and so I don't really care. That said, I do try to make sure nobody knows and so I keep the phone brightness as low as possible

What's a hikikonori

Since nobody answered this yet, a hikikomori is a japanese word which means to be extremely isolated from society and they do this by staying at home basically 24/7. Of course I can't answer on why they are one as I don't know their reasons

 

[Abyssal]

Not at all lmao. I hop on SaSu anywhere I just be cautious around family

 

[Thia]

I forgot to close a SaSu tab once and for a second it was visible on my laptop at uni...

Fortunately, nobody around me don't understand English

oh, do be careful
people in Japan may say they don't speak English, but some of them understand much more than they let on (e.g. I have seen multiple twenty-somethings who have never studied abroad being able to read specialized books written in English)
