  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

So many ways to catch the bus are brutal and knowing there is no easy way is really very scary.

It would be nice if there was an easy access bus pass, you're not wrong. It's frightening that there's not.

It will never be easy to leave a life that is all we have known. However, I am tired of waking up after a blissful sleep and saying to myself, God my life is so crap and meaningless. I took a few sleeping tablets and just slept for days. I cannot be bothered with this ridiculous body anymore. I'm cold, tired and dead. I have no reason to keep going.

I'm imagining a fictional world in which you can easily access a pill that kills you almost instantly and painlessly. There are no barriers to its access, except maybe a minor cost to cover its development and production. It's use is so commonplace that there is no stigma attached to it. People understand that it's the best option for some.

Even if all those barriers were gone — pain, access, stigma, risk of failure — I wonder how much SI would play a role in deterring people from going through with it. (I feel like there's a short story in there somewhere.)

yeah haha really is

when I first came here there was a sense of relief, having access to all this information on how and all these people that know exactly how it feels to want to
didnt really have a form to my thoughts on it and thanks to this site now I do
but it also highlights just how hard the 'easy way out' is, the fact that there doesnt exist a way for me that is both comfortable enough or accessible enough is horrible
i just feel stuck again
purgatory feels worse than hell I think

There's a counterargument for that: But should it be easy to end one's own life? It's an irreversible decision—and it's one you can't contemplate if you've succeeded in doing it. After all, we've evolved to maintain our own survival, and suicide goes against those primal urges.

That said, though, if you're determined to die by suicide, it should happen humanely. There should also be an opportunity to do it openly and discuss your affairs with your family, friends, and associates to prepare them for your death—just as you would for a terminal physical illness—without risking being trundled off to a psych ward and put under suicide watch.

I personally view it as being absolutely horrific how we live in a world where suicide is so unnecessarily difficult and complicated for us and how we have to struggle so much in finally being free from this world. When there is no straightforward way to leave and when there is so much stigma and secrecy associated with suicide then existence is certainly prison like and a peaceful reliable exit is what we deserve as after all we were forced into a life that we never asked for, and there is nothing valuable about something so useless and awful as life to justify making suicide difficult.

I view it as being terrifying how methods can potentially fail, and I despise this pro suffering and torture society which aims to force people to stay here until they eventually deteriorate from old age. Life should be seen as a choice rather than something to be prolonged at all costs
