These anti-choice people remind me like a bunch of mormon missionaries

I can't watch it to the end because it makes me cringe really bad.

I was a Mormon for under 6 months. Got baptized at 18. Quit the church the same year because of the doubts and the fact that everything they did seemed pointless and weird, I should have used my intellect instead of my emotions. I guess I was desperate to feel good. To get help when in fact nobody can help me. My aunts side of the family got baptized in the 1940s. My grandma was a Mormon until she died. My aunt was a Mormon until around 2006ish. Maybe 2007. I talked her out of that crazy crap.

Also the "spiritual underwear". I didn't even know people wore that when I got baptized. That's how in the dark those hot missionary women left me. They told me to pray to "god" to see if the church is true....then just feel not think. When someone tells ya not to think, that's a red flag. I felt what I wanted to be true instead of what is true. A placebo effect that didn't last long.

I did learn a lot from my short stay in the church. I have ammo against religion during debates, and I learned a lot about how the mind can play tricks on you.

Yeah it does have that cringe factor going on.

Every time in my life I have opened up to someone about my feelings for self deliverance. I have deeply regretted it. Except once maybe.

Was it because of their disapproval?

 

[Zzzzz]

No. Not their disapproval. It was the threats that disturbed me.

Dang. I'm sorry they threatened you. Nobody has the right to do that.

Finally i was able to watch this from my laptop. And whoa ! wai-wai-wait a second. First, where did you see it in real life that your friends actually talk to you and trying to help you ? And what's the deal with all those people saying "it always gets better". What if my "better" means it will be actually better for me to ctb. So weird, yet i liked this acting

It's all nuts! The anti-choice movement is insane. When I was in my late teens and early 20s it took one panic attack to lose friends.

A couple years ago I was getting beer and this cashier said "you look lonely". I was thinking - god damn am I THAT ugly? I told her I recently got divorced...as if it was any of her business. She handed me the change and said "it gets better".

My first thought was - wow maybe things would have gotten better if she gave me her number. Seriously...who would want to touch me anymore anyway.

She could have came over, turned the lights off, turned her head, and used heavy duty gloves. People don't wanna do the dirty work to help those in pain. They may say a prayer. No physical contact needed. No orgasms involved.

I know that sounds crude...but I really would like to be touched after being alone for so long. Just for someone to even hold me would be enough.

I totally feel your pain, bro ! People here also don't bother themselves even to hug someone at least (believe me, this generic thing means something for suicidal person). Moreover (and more often) they just say "you're complaining too much, jerk. Get a grip ! Nobody likes people like you". Is it supposed to be fun ? Telling such things to a person with already destroyed psychic. Another common thing here is when girls say "wow you're a nice guy. I really wish i have a bf like you". Goddamn ! This makes me angry as hell. Why search someone like me, if I'm already standing right in front of you ! All this society around me is a bunch of hypocrites, I hate them and their thousand years old rotten advices like "everything will be better later". What about phone number ? Maybe a hug / a simple handshake / maybe you have friends with similar problem and you can establish some contact between us/ e.t.c. Man, this is so easy just to tell words and do nothing (i mean for people who can actually do something)... i've no faith in humanity at all. We don't have any kind of anti-choice or suicide prevention movements, except few hotlines for teenagers from difficult families. But the funny thing is we have a forum (probably sponsored by government) where a lot of orthodox priests post topics about hell, religion and something like that. They compare every person's life with war. And if you ctb - you're a bad warrior and you should be hated for eternity. Think twice about that. They want to prevent suicides, but they actually humiliate suicidal persons and force them to ctb faster. Worldexploder, all these anti-choice movements are not just useless, they are potentionally dangerous.
