  • 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].

We live in a world of hope and wishes that problems will go away if we are just positive.

The groups who have singles out Sanctioned Suicide love to address it as a cult or single out the people who started the site or moderated it.

None of them ever address the basics of the problem which is at the core related to mental health.


The article above discusses the results of the mental health crisis just in terms of the numbers of impacted people:

In addition, there is an increase in severe mental illnesses among young adults (18–25 years old) and adults (26–49 years old) in 2018 (39). About 46.5% of young adults and 36.3% of adults were untreated in 2018 (39).

There are statistical unrefutable increases in suicides globally across all demographics and age groups. The cause of suicides is not a forum or website. The cause is emotional health and access to support. Yet this is not addressed in the angry Kelli @fixthe26 tweets ever. There is simply an addition to the bullying attacks that lead more and more people to seek out ways to take their own lives. I wish just one time I would be able to see a link and request to congresspersons by people like her to increase efforts to help with mental health instead of a vengeance fueled bullying campaign of Doxing and anger.

I too lost a child to suicide but my efforts in this space are to try and shed light on the actual problem instead of add vitriol to the world.

Kelli, you are free to use my stats and data on how to help suicidal individuals gain access to mental health when the inadequate call 1800 suicide lines are not helping them.

All the percentages in the article e.g. anxiety and fatigue, mental health disorders, and untreated mental health illness are high. 20% means 1 in 5 individuals, 23.9% is like 1 in 4 individuals (approximately). The ratios can go even higher if the pandemic continues for 2-3 years and mental health resources get worse.
