For people that have been told they are ugly in their youth. If the internet, video games didn’t exist would you have CTB sooner?

[Journeytoletgo]

I 100% bet I would have. I find it all pointless distraction to subjugate those born with genetic misfortune and to make me docile and cope with a tragic shit hand. Anyone else?

I find it quite interesting they provide these "copes" to sedate the masses of people born into misfortune who have no choice but to become a shut in from society

 

[Superdeterminist]

Honestly, I have no clue what I would have done all this time because video games and internet have been such huge aspects of my life. I don't know what I would have filled my time with/fallen into instead. But it's true to say that if those things were taken from me now, that I would lose what little distraction I had left, leaving me with truly nothing except my own thoughts of ctb, so it probably would hasten things, as the boredom and frustration would be a thousand times worse.

The internet has made the importance of pretty privilege (to me) all the more obvious, so if anything without it, I may have felt slightly less depressed.

So don't you think the controllers of modern reality are inhumane for instead providing distractions for people of low social status because of their looks and instead not providing them with peaceful methods out ? This entire society is a joke. However that's my opinion. I realize I been sedated for years with "cope" via internet and video games if these cope weren't around as you said I'd be forced to interact with humans who would torture me and abuse me further for being low status due to my skin disease

You could make that argument. Yes I agree, it's pathetic that we don't grant ourselves the basic respect of a good and timely death, that 100% needs to change ASAP. But I would say that video games and internet have a complex origins, they weren't designed for any schemed purpose, but instead, a whole host of ideas and imaginings culminated in their creation, mostly benevolent ones rather than any malicious agenda to sedate people. It is however true that video games and internet can't even begin to make up for the shortcomings of existence, in my opinion at least.

What skin condition do you have? Sorry to hear you're dealing with one of life's many blights.

I have acne skin skin condition not as horrible as it was in my teens however I was bullied horribly for it and ostracized. I have skin damage and traumatic emotional scars from it

 

[bing]

I couldn't do it because I didn't have access to a painless means

That's really shitty. I remember hearing about a Korean comedian, Park Ji-sun, who ctb'd with her mother, and she also suffered a debilitating skin condition and could find no cure. This happened last year. Diseases can be profoundly damaging and I don't know what anybody did to deserve curses like that. One of the reasons why a loving god is totally out of the question, for me.

Me either. It sucks and it's inhumane

Especially during that time I was braver

Yeah I stopped believing in god long ago. Her mom also CTB?

Yes diseases are horrible and lower one's quality of life

 

[FuneralCry]

I feel like I would still be here no matter what. When I was much younger, I knew absolutely nothing about ctb so there is no way I could have succeeded. I have not wanted to live for so long yet I am trapped in this world because ctb is so difficult.

 

[whatevs]

I have to be honest, when a woman is good looking I am drawn to her. More smiling, better treatment, more interest. Obviously being beautiful makes life less unbearable and being ugly is putting you at a disadvantage that goes well beyond the sexual.

But I really try to overcome this and mature. I'm not young Brad Pitt and even if I was at the end of the day if you're pretty but you are a dumbass we aren't going to have a good time either.

Yeah her mother ctb'd with her. It makes for an even sadder story, but for that her mother seemed cooler than most parents, who would just condemn their children for even thinking about ctb. It shows that she had a level of understanding for her daughter.

I had no idea about CTB in my youth either. I wish I did, I knew I was suicidal however I didn't know how to execute it which sucks I would have been gone by now

Good mom. I wish my dad would understand and not take it as me trying to harm him I just reject this life imposed upon me

 

[WorthlessTrash]

I probably wouldn't have attempted. Back then I was naive that things weren't too bad, and my issues would pass.

Lol.......

Me too I wish I wasn't so naive I would have CTB in my teens things only turned horrible

 

[Judy Garland]

Yes, they've been my escape. But even they now can't do anymore. I'm done.

 

[Al Cappella]

If someone had told me, as a kid, that I was ugly I would have sent my ass, head first, through a wood chipper, then set fire to myself. With or without internet (there wasn't any). As it was, they only told me I was stupid, so I hung on for way longer than I should have. I was never smart enough to set up and run a wood chipper…

You're right—I got lucky. I'm just ugly on the inside.

Mental health issues causing you to feel this way?

Maybe, that and years of just watching myself in action.
