I felt very suicidal today, and something pulled me away from the edge, so I wanted to cope in my misery and searched up "suicide forum" on the internet and found this.

I found it via a Yandex search since Google blocks anything helpful like this

There was a certain "lostallhope.com" or sth. that had a link to sasu. The original site isn't accessible any longer, tho i think there's some wayback machine or sth. I went looking for it when I was really depressed.

Tantacrul's video shined light on this place to me a year ago but I thought nothing of it while watching the video, just catalogued it in my mind for later.

Back when the original subreddit was banned, a temporary one was made which linked to SaSu. That was a while back (late 2018 I think). Didn't post until last year because the site blocked proxies and I only had mobile web. Ironically I can only access this site through proxies and VPNs now 😂

Was suicidal and was looking for methods.
Found this site and did some research.
Glad this site exists. Being around like-minded people helps a lot.

I wish I remembered. Maybe old me even posted how I knew about this place, but I just don't remember.

First time I've seen it as a subreddit, but didn't really lurk there too long.
Then I've seen this site mentioned on Reddit somewhere.

First knew about the existence of site through Tantacrul's video and thought the site could be useful to me in my want to die and was curious if what he said about the site was true. As the video didn't give the full name of the site I couldn't find it straight away but I was able to find the name of it through the Wikipedia page on it.

I remember looking for news about how people CTB, I found a news item where it was mentioned. I spent more than a year reading the forum until I signed up.
