On the original subreddit someone stalked me for awhile online, but it was another suicidal person who was, how should I put it kindly.. Quite unhinged and desperate. It put me off the subreddit for awhile cause I was anxious, but this site is way better than the reddit community was, imo.
I think everyone here should be careful especially considering the crusades against this site. I try to be careful with the advice I give people, and steer them towards the direction of things that might make their lives less painful and make them feel understood and not want to ctb.
UK Parliament wants to ban this site, and several here have been contacted in regards to their purchases of ctb materials. To me, I find this quite scary and an invasion of privacy. Yet, there is nothing I can do about it.
Sometimes I do get anxious posting on here because of that, but this is the only community where I feel understood. It feels like people want to censor this discussion and make us feel even more ashamed, which is why I feel like it's important to speak out and not feel afraid to share your true thoughts about these issues.
I do wish there was a way to keep this site more secure and keep people out who have no business here and only want to spy on or harass members, but I have no idea how the admins could manage that without more problems arising.
Also lots of people irl know I'm suicidal and they treat me like shit bevause of it anyways.
