Thinking about talking to a suicide hotline and see if they can at least be a bit helpful. If you've ever called a suicide hotline, how were your experiences?
An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

Other people did this too? I thought I was the only one lol.People always say to call the hotline like they'll magically fix everything. But really, I think the whole point of the hotline is to send out people to do wellness checks or stop you from CTBing. It's like being institutionalized. As soon as you realize it isn't working, it becomes a strategy game where you have to pretend to be recovering in order to get out.
If I ever give it another shot I'll definitely hit them up instead. Appreciate the tip, I wish all hotlines maintained anonymity and had a guarantee not to call someone on youOther people did this too? I thought I was the only one lol.
I've never called a suicide hotline before but maybe try the Samaritans, I've heard better things about them than any of the other hotlines, AFAIK they also can't call the police on you.
Samaritans are just as bad as the rest, I mean they'll keep it confidential and not send people your house to do welfare checks etc which is okay I guess. They left me on hold for ages when I called them, to the point when they picked up I said "you do realise I could have killed myself about 30 minutes ago by now right?" Talking to them also didn't help, it ironically made me feel worse because they were so superficial. Never called a suicide hotline after that. This was just my personal experience though, so take it with a pinch of salt.If I ever give it another shot I'll definitely hit them up instead.

I totally get that. It's why I don't really have plans to call a hotline, even on the off chance that I decided to go in recovery or thought I would need help.Samaritans are just as bad as the rest, I mean they'll keep it confidential and not send people your house to do welfare checks etc which is okay I guess.

lol me tooAs soon as he asked I knew all I wanted to do was get out without raising suspicion/dealing with any follow ups. So I told him and then spent about 5 minutes pretending like I was magically "doing better" and making up some bullshit about how it felt good to "let it out". All lies, but the guy seemed to want to go just as much as I did. That was pretty much it.
It's not that the guy was rude, but he wasn't nice either. I don't know what I expected, I'm not comfortable around any strangers at all and I don't know what the man could've said to make anything better.

They threw me into the psych ward and the next day police show up and trespass me from my school.Thinking about talking to a suicide hotline and see if they can at least be a bit helpful. If you've ever called a suicide hotline, how were your experiences?
