On days like these I wish I still had weed. I'm craving to feel relaxed and tuned out.
Already feels like we're locked down - inside of ourselves. And now its like the world outside of us is starting to reflect how we are internally. Its kind of weird like that.I can't stand following the debate about stricter curfew restrictions anymore.
I already feel trapped in this so called "life", I couldn't endure not being able to go outside at all. If hotels were closed, I'd also have a problem. Will I end up having to sneak into the forest at night? Is that what you want?
I'm going insane if this continues like this.
I used to be a workaholic, that worked for a while...My days are like: "okay I've taught the english lessons I was supposed to so, now what?"
(I end up depressed in my bed, thinking about ctb all day/night long)
What makes you say that? I think we're just limited in what we can do maybe, or maybe friendships these days are so much more strained and tenuous, but there's an emotional connection, it's more than letters on a screen fwiw, whatever you've been through.I realized something today. Nobody cares about me the way I thought they were, at the end of the day we're all just letters on a screen and to be honest I think I've finally come to terms with it.
I think you've got to have a lot of trust in a person and a lot of confidence in their genuine desire to end it to start talking to them about resources that will help them to leave instead of resources that would help them to stay. You're very right about the possibility of the person just not knowing how to express that they need help other than by claiming suicidality, or just being impulsive. So you're right, I wouldn't recommend sharing this site with them, even if it does have a recovery section.I have a friend who's as suicidal as I am but I really don't want to tell them about this site because there's a very real chance they could just be publicly tweeting about wanting to die all the time simply because they're trying to signal for some attention plus even if they're serious, then they'd be more likely to go through with it immediately on an impulse before my time which I would likely get blamed for so here's to hoping they never find this site, at least not until after I'm already gone.
That's all very true. Thanks for helping me feel better about not telling them.I think you've got to have a lot of trust in a person and a lot of confidence in their genuine desire to end it to start talking to them about resources that will help them to leave instead of resources that would help them to stay.

So you're right, I wouldn't recommend sharing this site with them, even if it does have a recovery section.
However, if they do find this site on their own, you're not going to be responsible in any way, even if they recognize you here.
Gotta walk/run my daily 7kms but feel so lazy!
