  • 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.

You don't have to be depressed or sad all the time to be suicidal, some of us are just fed up with all the challenges that we've had to face in life and wanna leave this world.

I hate it how people say "oh get therapy, seek God, talk to someone, seek help", when we don't want help in the first place. The only help I need is someone shooting me multiple times.

I agree completely. People should be allowed to do what they want with their own body, if that means suicide, so be it.

Being in this world is an utter burden, and the challenges make it not worth living. I'm with you on hating being told to talk to my therapist or lean on God, who by the way I doubt very much exists.

Savior complexes trying to fix your problems or guilt tripping you. People you barely know saying "stay alive for me I love you!"

The fuck out of here. You don't know me, you don't know at all what I'm going through. Go ahead and fucking guilt trip me and make it worse.

I don't discuss my problems anymore for this particular reason. I never asked for help, and if I ever vented, I just wanted to vent. People fail to simply listen and have this desire need to feel needed and help others. I'm just sick of everyone! If I don't discuss my problems, I'd wish to stop others from venting to me! If I log on this site, that's different.

I wish more people would understand this. There's even people on this forum who have savior complexes who go around trying to discourage people from CTB. In a way, pushing help or discouragement is infantilizing because it undermines a person's autonomy and rationality. Sometimes outright ignores it. It gets on my nerves when people do this specifically on the suicide subforum. Especially when the person obviously isn't being irrational or impulsive.

Perfectly true. It's ultimately 'help' to receive more life. Life itself can be the problem if we can't fix the things that are wrong with it/ us. My feeling is that a lot of 'help' is simply a bandaid and a shove on your way. To truly 'fix' some of the issues troubling us would take a hell of a lot more work.

Work from us too. It's not like other injuries so much where a surgeon can do their bit and we recover. It's like being challenged to climb Everest with a broken foot and on crutches. Can you really expect people at such a disadvantage to put up a really solid fight?

That's not to say it's impossible if the motivation is there but I think that's one major issue really. Surely, we've got to really want something in life to fight for it that hard? If that goes, we're left with a degree of suffering and only the things that prevent suicide. Restrictions of peaceful methods, fear of attempting and/ or harsh judgement and an afterlife, concern for loved ones left behind. I'd hazard a guess that the latter is where a lot of people here are. Trapped between a rock and a hard place.

I totally agree. People don't get that I just don't want to exist in this world anymore. They are all about "get help and try to get better", but I do not want "better" (whatever that is) anymore. I can't imagine myself living in a "normal" state in this cruel world. It is all f*cked up, just let me go.

I kinda see it the other way. Genuinely wanting to leave this world, for a lot of people, is probably a really good sign that they actually do need help. Sure, that advice probably isn't gonna help me but I don't particularly care if someone well meaning tries to help me ineffectively if it might help someone else who actually could still have a life ahead of them. Maybe every time you hear it just think of it as the cost of looking out for kids who might actually enjoy their lives if they can get a bit of support? I dunno, it doesn't bother me, it's a little repetitive and I learned a long time ago I'm not actually the target audience but whatever.

I really understand as I also just wish to be gone, all I want is to never suffer ever again, I just wish for this cruel, torturous existence to be all forgotten for me, non-existence is all that's desirable and is all I see as positive. I'd just never wish for the burden of existing rather I just wish I never suffered more than anything, it's just so dreadful to me how there is no acceptance towards the right to die with the suffering and torture of human existence seen as to force and prolong no matter what.

I cut someone out of my life because they constantly asked me to go to therapy and asked why I wouldn't take better care of myself and why I wouldn't try to get better. The final straw was when they said they "wouldn't let it be easy" for me when I mentioned suicide.

It's also just a natural way to try to contribute to the conversation isn't it? I often find if I'm not trying to look for some sort of solution, what am I contributing by replying? Not always, but also not unusual. This isn't just online either. When my best friend told me about his previous attempt and how everything that underpinned it still existed, on some level I knew he wasn't really after advice, but what else do I say? Like I'm trying to fit myself into the conversation so that he's not just talking to himself, and that's where my mind is going, so that's what I talked about, albeit prefaced with things like fwiw and ime so it doesn't feel impositional. I think it's just going to come up if you want to talk about it, particularly with non-suicidal people who struggle to relate.

No one should be forced to live in this world just because of shitty governments who will lose elections because they allow a right to die so they dont -_-

The mismatch between what we desire and the reality of the world is a common experience. While it's normal to have hopes and desires, expectations can often lead to disappointment when they don't align with actual outcomes

ב''ה, it's disappointing that while the random shooting is probably far less pain than existence, y'know, like putting a hand down on a wasp, it's just more pain I could do without.

Somehow I remain 'how about global thermonuclear war in my sleep' or catching a stray then when I won't have to feel it.

Yes, exactly this. Even if I would be happy, I just don't want to live. You just suffer for nothing and then still die in the end. Why would I willingly put myself through life If I can also just die right now so don't have to face any challenges.
