There is an off topic section for threads not about ctb.
I think it's important for members to have a space where they can vent, get upset, rage and despair over their daily lives or things affecting them, even if those things and daily events are not directly tied to suicide (i.e.: it's not literally tied into suicide methods, research, info PSAs, goodbye threads, etc). Especially because the nature of this forum means other members understand why our views on suicide are what they are and don't try to needle us out of them, or try to change the subject.
I think the forum would benefit from a sub forum geared towards things like this. Where you need to get something off your chest but it may not be related to suicide in any tangible way.
We have off topic, but a lot of posts there are more upbeat in nature, and it can be a turn off when you really need to just.. get out what's upsetting you.
