  • 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].

I put of once more my ctb. Keep receiving small glimmers of hop that are always soon dashed. I have to focus on my goal Friday 29th will be the day. Unless hope becomes something more concrete today. After today I will wind my posts down on here as they don't garner much response anymore. It seems to me SS has become more about multiple threads on N from D and benign questions. Sympathy and empathy do not seem to exsist amongst newr members. I guess this has not helped with my state of mind. We used to be able to talk on here about our problems and thoughts. Now very few people seem to care. This site is beginning to feel like my life. Fewer and fewer people care. If one particular person cared enough I might have lived. Between them and grounding being lost on here I feel lost and alone. There is no more hope. I have my method and will be willing to share if anyone is interested

I think that on SS people just sign up for methods. They just want to die and most of them are likely in a lot of pain and desperate. That is basically the whole purpose of this site and people have no interest in interacting apart from that and feel no need to do so. This is understandable to me though, I just want to be gone as well. Best wishes, in whatever you decide to do. I'm sorry that you suffer.

It wasn't always like that on here. So many new users repeating questions that have been answered a thousand times.

I think that it is because this website can be confusing with all the acronyms and new members do not get access to the search function straightaway so maybe that is why they are asking the same questions. It makes me feel sad personally that people have to research suicide on the internet in the first place and that so many people struggle in finding ways to die. The society should allow us a peaceful exit, and then the people who want to leave this world will be gone instead of posting about it.

I agree. I was not here at that time, but I've read a lot of the older posts, and there is a very clear difference in the overall prevailing "tone" of the posts. I'm very sorry that you have lost a means of feeling supported and understood (like a community).

Used to feel more like a community. I don't mind people asking for advice but a lot of posts are quite simply banile. Questions regarding everything but ctb

If things were to work out they would have to be on her terms. Suicide is the last thing I need to put into remission. Can't do it on my own or therapy

Even between now and 2020 feels different I started going on here in the summer of 2020 but I didn't make an account until December so I've seen this site change over time

I remember this forum was different, there was more connection between people, more warmth.

It's changed, but that's the nature of this place.
I wish I could show more support.

I wish that I could have been here for those times. But even out in the world, things are less and less friendly and social as time is going on. More and more mental health issues. The last few years of pandemic which has degraded people's social skills or desire to be social may be a factor as well.

Think it's more of an excuse. People today seem so self absorbed

It kind of feels uncomfortable when I want to make a thread unrelated to discussion of methods now. Cus im thinking its distracting or something. Maybe it's just in my head. Most likely is. But we need that other element of venting and talking to each other because otherwise all those shitty articles about us will be right. We just teach each other how to die and log off

I can agree with that too. There are many factors, I would imagine.

I would've thought there are many factors. I do wonder sometimes about motives on here now. Once upon a time that was never a concern. Maybe I'm just getting too old

I can only speculate, I haven't been around very long. It seems that you aren't the only one aware of this. I guess I missed out on how things were unfortunately.

I find lots of threads in this forum about stuff other than specifics of method. I try to engage with them, too. I do refresh the forums regularly though. I find that when I post stuff people interact with me.

I DO, however, find that there are always a few fresh posts listed about SN method specifics, as you point out.

It's posts that don't really have anything to do with suicide that annoy me. There is an off topic forum here for that. For God's sake there's a post on here asking for gore sites.

Sometimes people are genuinely looking for help and support but they get lost among fluff. If we cannot help and support each other we are everything the media paints us

Aren´t you considered a new member, too? who cares..

Are there secrets to keep on your method. Got it all figured out? Whoo..

Get over that one person, will you? I takes me now just over twelve years, haha

Since twelve years almost everyday is like break-up day.

Nightmares, shiffering, constant states of loneliness, demise, anxiety.

Yea the difference could be because of the back and forth of losing the channel and having to use Telegram. Some people probably did not come back to the main website
