  • 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've talked to about 5 people in my life about being depressed and wanting to die and literally all of them have responded the same way. They either tell me to talk to someone else like a doctor or family or they just refuse to talk to me. They all left me after too. I finally talked to my best friend after years about the problems I had with him and he refuses to talk to me again about this kinda thing. Literally all I want is someone to talk to when I'm having a panic attack that's not gonna just immediately abandon me. But that's too much to ask for I guess. Has anyone else had people react the same way?

People certainly see us as a liability and a burden, which is why I strongly believe it is best not to mention it to people.

There's really not much anyone can do anyway so I don't see how it can do any good.

Yeah. At the time I wasn't entirely suicidal but after telling people about being depressed it's almost comical how they immediately abandon you and act like it's supposed to make you feel better. The biggest regret I'll have is not knowing how they responded. Like I fucking asked them numerous times and they still act the same.

That's the irony of it really. Those same people will likely be the ones telling everyone they should reach out and talk to someone!

Most of the people I have told are those I have strongly suspected to feel the same way. That's why this place feels so valuable though. We can vent here without people freaking out, giving us platitudes or abandoning us. I'm sorry your friends have been so unsupportive.
