Interested to know what your most powerful songs covering suicide are? Either from a pro-ctb perspective, or from a recovery/resistance view?

Radiohead's No Surprises, How to Disappear Completely, or Motion Picture Soundtrack are up there for me. lots of post punk stuff too. Don't Cling to Life by the Murder Capital is a recent one that comes to mind

Fade to black - Metallica. The lyrics accurately describe the feelings I go through when I'm suicidal
Paint it black - The rolling stones. The lyrics refer to depression/darkness imo
Multiple Nirvana songs, mainly Something in the way, Dumb, Lithium... Not directly related to suicide but I listen to them cus somehow I relate to Kurt in some ways

Doom metal is my choice in that situation. I can hear Death come near me from Draconian over and over again.

I've not ever gotten into much doom metal, but maybe I could check it out

Call me a fucking weeb but rurus suicide show on livestream is one I like. Not in an add to playlist sort of way, but it captures how someone suicidal can feel with both a mix of happy and self depreciating. The song is upbeat, the lyrics make good mention of how social media can impact one's mental health (in a vague way?) and it dives into how one can take their life online so that others may remember them. Also the singer has BPD I believe.

Most of the album "Infest" by Papa Roach deals with suicide. Fade to Black by Metallica was mentioned earlier and was also used in a nursing school essay when my mom was a teacher.

i don't like anime or anything like that nor do i like the concept of suicide being quirky but Ruru's Suicide Show on Livestream is very.... interesting, it opened up my eyes to others suffering not just my own !!

I'm shocked to see that no one's mentioned bullet by Hollywood undead. hummed the shit out of that one in highschool and everyone complimented how chipper I sounded.

I also like ruru's like the others lol
welcome to my life by simple plan isn't suicidal necessarily but I would be remiss to not include it
last words of a shooting star by mitski
how to never stop being sad by dandelion heads
dogdog by abuse
rope by castlebeat
hansel by soddiken

I've got more general "life sucks everything sucks" but I feel like this is good enough for now lol

You should check bands like Linking park as their lead singer went through this as well, you can also check some songs by clinton kane which sre suicidal. Most of the depressed related songs are punk based or metal based rock songs. A band called the fray has songs for his friend who commited suicide and many more. I prefer searching playlists of spotify and u will definitely find many suicidal songs in that.

Of course, I'm mostly just really curious to hear from this community though

Although Pink Floyd don't have any about suicide (that I know of), I tend to listen to them quite a bit since a lot of the songs resemble my life.

Then we have Ozzy....

I can message you my discord and then delete this message if you want. I don't know if you have one.

No, not yet. I'm not comfortable with giving email info yet, especially when we just met. No offense.
