I feel like a fake and hate myself fot it. Even here sometimes

And I think anyone with over 2000 posts should be banned on principle. (Not really but you know)

I heavily disagree. As I mentioned in another post today, we are all here for a reason. We are all in pain one way or another. We seek companionship and understanding. Help. Whatever you choose in the end. Deciding to not CTB doesn't mean you're a fake, it means you found something worth living for. We are all scared too, both of life and death.

The number of word games and such running concurrently in the offtopic forum mean it's very easy to run up a post count of several hundred essentially low quality postings in just a few days, so a high post count doesn't mean much and is often not indicative of anything imo.

True, and I'm a good example of that.

Sorry, I was actually just kidding about the number of posts. At thevtime I thought I'd try to lighten the tone by saying anyone who's been on here "suicidal" for too long should be ejected for faking it. But I'm sure many people here have had the thoughts longer than that?

It's not the quantity of posts that count,
It's the quality!

Based on that, I should be shown the door any second.

But you post quality! I've noticed members on here who post very little, but when they do it more than makes up for it.
Then there are others who with a little bit of effort could easily find the answers to what they're looking for.

No one here is truly fake. (Now are there some trolls and troublemakers? Sure. But if they are trolling here, they certainly have issues of their own).

That's not reality. People who are here are here because they support the right of choice when it comes to suicide, and they come to have a discussion without censorship about suicide. It's not perfect, and I acknowledge that. But many of the users here also suffer from mental illnesses, I myself have severe PTSD and depression. There's nothing wrong with that and we don't allow shaming of it on this forum. This forum and community has a certain ecosystem, and with that there can be some clashing, fighting, drama, and things certainly taken far far out of context.

A good portion of people are here because they want to die, some are passively suicidal, some are actively suicidal. Some aren't suicidal, some just support the right of others to take their lives.

Quite a few good members have left via the bus.

Burning Lights
Gee
Hikikomori and that is just naming a few. It's been a tough couple weeks for everyone, because this month I know that three great members have caught the bus. I know it's been hard on me.

Just because you aren't actively trying to catch the bus doesn't mean you're a 'fake' or a 'fraud.' I'm personally passively suicidal, and I have been apart of the r/ss community for a very very long time. I support the right of choice. Please continue to post here, and please continue to be apart of this community. Each of you are valued, and each of your contributions make this community a better place.

I post the worst shit ever here lol

 

[ReadyasEver]

Threads is on top of it. Personally, I can't say enough for SS, there really is not anywhere else that people can come and express their internal struggles, physical struggles, and their beliefs on their own right to die.

 

[Severen]

I want to CTB with no unfinished business. I don't want to die like "FUUUUCCCKKKKKK, I STILL HAVE THINGS TO DO!" And my plan requires a certain amount of money saved up, lots of research and careful planning... That takes time. Dying with unfinished business, is horrible... So I'm going to be here on Earth for awhile.

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

You're not fake, I have it on good authority that you're the real Jodes.
