Found out about Sa.Su after a lifelong friend CTB,
Going through his phone and tablet before his parent's or daughter did, I came here looking for his threads to get a sense of WHY ?
So glad I deleted it before anyone saw it, I understand, don't think his family would have.
This site gave him a little peace in his last days.
It gives me some comfort now as my final days unfold, just looking for a suitable partner now, I don't want to CTB alone.

Thank you all for your honesty, openness and participation.

How much better could the world be for some, maybe still not all if the subjects discussed here could be openly discussed and not shunned or judged in society ?

A stranger DM'ed me about SaSu after venting somewhere. Thank you, stranger!
I must say that Tantacrul's video did redirect me to this forum after I forgot about it.

I believe I first saw the site mentioned in a NYT article and decided to see what the site was truly about. I don't believe everything I read. I am working on what method might be easiest and least painful for me and for those who will be dealing with my departure.

I'm a total newbie and not familiar with the lingo. What does CTB mean? Thanks.

I did a google search for pro suicide forums, and the Wikipedia article for this forum actually came up. I am amazed that the anti-suicide people have not had the Wikipedia page removed!

Shout out to the NY Times for naming it in their article.

I was immediately pleasantly surprised by SaSu's sense of community and different resources - it's cool to not feel alone with the dark thoughts

I basically just searched up "suicide notes" and came across this VICE post about a suicide site and that is how I went down the rabbit hole.

Tantacrul's video. I pieced together the name of the forum he was talking about when I remembered it mentioned on reddit a couple of years ago. It's ironic, but I'm happy to be here.

Newbie here. I've been looking for methods and trying to CTB for a while now; and found this forum mentioned in several research papers and condemned by some ruthless online articles a lot of time ago.
I first ruled it out 'cause it was apparently banned in my country and didn't show up on Google.
However, I still remembered the name and was able to find it during my first visit to the deep web.
This way, I found out it's not banned anymore, noted down its three addresses (just in case) and finally registered.

You know, during my studies (of communication and psychology) - plus personal research - I learned that media coverage increases the likelihood of finding these kinds of websites; and the risk of copycat suicides. Still, I never thought I would see it happening in my own life.
Ironically, I remember getting that very multiple-choice question on "copycat suicide" wrong, and researching it after the exam just because of that.

I am so grateful to be here; I rarely feel so free and understood.

i was searching for methods and kept scrolling and scrolling- i was getting very desperate to find something, i believe i was searching for spots locally to end things at and this site appeared, i registered not really knowing what to expect... but after something happened that shook up my normal routine i decided to become more active and make a effort towards really planning once and for all,,

Tantacrul's video definitely backfired. That's what happens when he prioritized content over his morals, truly shows the hypocrisy.

I got recommended Tantacrul's video and after a bit of searching found a link to this place.
I think Tantacrul's video ended more lived than it saved
tantacrul's video is the literal only place i had ever heard of this place, and even though he didn't mention the site's name so people wouldn't seek it out, it really backfired by the looks of it. he's the only reason i'm here
exactly. his video ended more lives than it saved

I was an original member of the A.S.H. ( alt suicide holiday) newsgroup. We coined the phrase CTB. I was actually hoping to find some of my old posts maybe archived just to read my thoughts back then to see why I'm still even here. Also to find the old methods file. I couldn't find them, but found this site. I was surprisingly happy the pc police even allow this to exist. It was more of a Wild West back then. I'm thankful I found this forum. I am ready to ctb finally.
