• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

It's all perfectly and beautifully subjective and there's nothing wrong with that.

To me suicide is an act of dignity and defiance whereas to go on living after what I've been through feels like a defeat. Accepting the world is a cruel and unjust place where I'll just have to endure an endless cycle of trauma and reconstruction is not a victory, I don't care who would see my death as them being right or whatever. I will give up in life before giving up on my beliefs and values. Doing things in my own terms, that's a victory and if I won't get it in this world then I'll get it by escaping.
"Give me liberty or give me death," that's the feeling I get from this. I do feel there's something powerful in refusing to compromise and deciding on all-or-nothing, rather than settling for something imperfect and flawed. It's almost martyr-like. I respect that.

I guess for me, the issue is that a lot of people in my life would see it as weak that I CTBed, and they'd get to feel superior to me for it, and my pride hates that. But I'm a NEET anyway, they probably feel superior to me already - might as well CTB so I'm not here to feel the shame.​

I never really hear suicide being talked about from this perspective
Really I think I have heard this a million times outside of this forum.

But whatever works, if this gives you a reason to go on and if you are fortunate enough to actually make it in life in the future then it would´ve paid off but for a person who isn´t strong or lucky enough to make it could be the shackles that keep them alive and suffering.

I never really hear suicide being talked about from this perspective. But does anyone else fight the urge to die, because you know it would be admitting defeat to the people who crushed you? Almost like it gives too much power to the people who need to be proven wrong.

After all the horrible psychological damage, my suicide making even one single person happy is too one too many. I don't want to give anyone the satisfaction of knowing they were able to kill me off and get rid of me.

I need to live to see the day where things get better, and I'm able to prove to everyone that I wasn't meant to be a fuck up, and more importantly that they were never able to stop me from having a happy life. I can't kill myself because it would prove to them they're powerful. More powerful than me. They got to be happy, why would I commit suicide and deny myself the chance to be happy like them.

But fighting the urge to ctb is so difficult. I know of a method I'm not scared of. I have tranquilizers as well, so I really wouldn't even feel it. But I literally *can't* do it. I cant let them scapegoating me for that long define me. I can't let the world see that they finally got to me. I just can't. I have to keep living.
I sometimes think this way and that's partly why I haven't done it yet, the people who hate/wronged me will most likely laugh and celebrate and I don't want to allow that win for them. It's like a constant battle in my mind to die or live because once I die I'm not coming back.

At the same time part of me doesn't care because the reaper is coming for everyone and they will get to old age and face potential illness, disease, sickness, grey hair, balding etc they too will turn to dust eventually.

It's also my suffering that I think about and wanting to end it.

Your point only makes sense if you believe that your situation is somehow solvable, and it's completely fine to believe so, but a lot of people who are suicidal are so because they believe their situation is completely unsolvable, existentially, that is (whether that is true or not... is a completely different discussion). They believe that FOR SURE the day where it will get better will never come, so they don't see the point in waiting 60 years to die. In other words, if your whole existence will suck no matter what, dying now seems plausible.
I think hopelessness characterizes a big portion of the reason why people feel suicidal. Doesn't make much sense to be suicidal if you feel like you can get better, does it?

I know exactly how you feel. And to an extent I feel the same way. I guess I'm exactly like you in the sense that I feel exactly the same way. Fuck them and fuck there evil BS. I read your post a while ago but never responded. I still understand ctb kinda, or the feeling of wanting to...but i agree with you wholeheartedly. Fuck them and let's crush them. Fuck there evil. I'll have to read the other replies once I'm off work but im interested in what others had to say...

Maybe not. Though it's way better if it's recognized and treated. It forces structural changes. As dysfunctional as the MH sector is, it's worse to not even have your disorder recognized. I think you'd agree with this, no?
....
who told you i have a disorder ?
