I am glad you are strong enough to know when to step away for your own sake, but I will miss your thoughtful and kind words here. Wishing you the best

That was my first worry too, I was like oops, us newbies have been saying too much.Hope this isn't due to my own and others' militant antinatalism and you being a mother. I want to clarify that I don't want to increase the suffering in the world by "punishing" parents, I don't believe in reward or punishment. I barely just joined but maybe I'll read some of your posts, awkward to say goodbye to someone you just met![]()
Enjoyment is meant in the broad sense. I'm contemplating the topic of suicide but not contemplating committing it currently. Rather preparing for a future change of circumstances. Not sure what your definition of "serious" is.
This is possibly the only place on the internet where venting about suicide is acceptable and being able to air a lifetime of bottled-up feelings on the matter to an (ostensibly) understanding community is more therapeutic than any red-taped quack you might hire per hour. Don't belittle the value of this. A forum is a poor medium if the purpose is strictly to inform and educate.
I have thought about this a lot, pro-lifers make no sense. If I was allowed to suicide I would choose to do so in a hospital, so they could help me do it right, and then they could also harvest all of my organs to save people who actually want to live or to use for medical research to help people, It's not very pro-life to let those people who wanted to live die because they couldn't find a donor. It would be a fair trade IMO. I'm rhesus negative too, so they could use my meat bag for anyone, no need to worry about blood types. Tell the pro lifers they are responsible for the deaths of maybe 6 people who didn't get a transplant because I have to hide to ctb which means my organs will be useless by the time my body is found.Completely agree. While I'm also sick of posts from those who make this forum their personal Google or Facebook, I also strongly dislike gatekeepers. This forum is not just for people who want to commit suicide. I'd say anyone who has experienced (or is just plain interested) in suicidal ideation but has absolutely no plans of ctb and just want to meet like-minded people is equally welcome.
It's quite ironic to me that some would stop us from doing certain things because it doesn't make sense for them. It's not really different from pro-lifers who won't give us a safe space in the world because suicide doesn't make sense for them.
I'm with you! I think of all the benefits if I exited, so why does society freak out? I mean, one less person in an overpopulated world. Someone new can live in my home. Someone can take my job. Social Security doesn't have to pay for me. Everyone can grab and use my organs. My lord - I should get an award for volunteering to exit early, not get shunned or locked in a psych ward!!!I have thought about this a lot, pro-lifers make no sense.

I'm rhesus negative too. I didn't know my organs could go to anyone. That's quite sad really :( all those people waiting could have mineI have thought about this a lot, pro-lifers make no sense.

Ikr, we can donate blood to anyone too as long as we are physically healthy and don't have recent tattoos (at least we can do that part while we are alive). It is such a waste though, my organs are not pristine because I smoked and drank for many years but they work well enough to sustain life, as long as they don't want to be an athlete it would be good enough :( Hopefully one day the rules will change.I'm rhesus negative too.

I can't give blood either I'm on too many medications one being permanent antibiotics. I don't drink regularly or smoke.

I cannot agree more. It seems like the website has changed and for the worse in the past month or so. Still best forum for learning on ctb though. Idk what I'd do without this website.The time spent on this site was worth it for a long time, but the juvenile nature of many on here now makes it nothing more than a place to vent. This is very far removed from what I came to expect from the people here. I read your comment Makko, and wonder if you really are contemplating suicide. Sorry, but such lack of understanding, and your choice of the word 'wisdom' leads me to believe you are not serious. This forum is not meant to be enjoyed. It is meant to inform, and educate. That is why I am here...period.
I saw that post they made, FBI not going to do shit though. Online messages or screenshots do not hold merit in a court system. But I do understand the need to leave once you feel that you've been strong-armed online by a bunch of radical pro-lifers. Be well, take care, and forget about them.Ok guys, with time to think I will be self banning and leaving for good. I wish you all the best and love you all.
Also, fixers, I see you read my posts and called me out. Go fuck yourselves I never said anything illegal, but you are threatening a member of a suicide group. What if your harassment pushed me over the edge? You read my posts? You know I have kids. You soulless bastards would be taking their mom away. If you had half an ounce of empathy you would be able to see I was just a member of the group. You know, the people you claim you want to save and help that are "victims" of this site. You are the monsters you claim us to be.

How can I when I told the staff someone is being a bully and I get absolutely zero response? Nothing is going to fix that problem. The person won't leave me alone and the staff won't address it. If I just put the person on ignore they start spreading lies around the community trying to destroy character, so that isn't an option either. They also refuse to put me on ignore and refuse to leave me alone.Rosey, stay with us.
Got the lab results from my blood tests, and happy to report that my nasty demeanour, please read above post, visual issues, word substitution are all attributable to changes in the blood. Why those changes happened are still being figured out. Please bear with me a little longer...I shall prevail. Sorry Makko. Not sure what I was talking about...above...will be back to the site when I know what I am doing...promise.

Me too Tap, but sheesh, I could have put it better.I cannot agree more. It seems like the website has changed and for the worse in the past month or so. Still best forum for learning on ctb though. Idk what I'd do without this website.
