Where would you go instead if SS closed down?

[jodes2]

I'd be so lost. I'd probably try to nestle in some of the few remaining pro-choice subs on Reddit like r/suicidal_thoughts but they're either very quiet or have a really specific non-suicide topic

 

[Smart No More]

Download telegram and search there. There's two official groups for the forum.

There's a twitter account too but it's not very active. Still a point of contact if needed though.

Same, I'd find my way back to Reddit to vent about the struggles that make me want to ctb, without actually talking about the ctb part.

I'd miss this place so much, and I'd worry about everyone who was here, hoping that we'd all find each other again somewhere.

Yeah it would be great if we could all meet up again!

Have Absolutely No Clue

 

[Silent.Tears]

Woah, I don't know.....I've never proactively thought about it but always been aware of the fact that it can be snatched away from me anytime.

 

[Forever Sleep]

Don't know. I get jittery when those error codes come up from time to time- like have the pro-lifers finally won?

 

[jackie_boy1337]

I'd probably just lay in bed and not communicate with anybody.

Man, those times are rough. I've developed a bad habit of almost always having the site open in a tab - it feels slightly less excruciatingly lonesome, and when that is suddenly unavailable...eugh.

Good to see from some others here that there may be other options. I've heard there is also a Discord - is that a thing?

If SS shut down, I would be 100% lost and have no family. Everyone here is my glue, no matter if you like me or not, I LOVE everyone here whole heartedly, hands down.

Everyone everywhere is entitled to happiness and love and at least for me SS IS that and more. After 2 attempts, I finally found a place where not only am I understood but can let my hair down with no repercussions.

Same place I would go if the website stays up, in the urn.

We love you too Walter!

I've never been on the dark web (or deep net or whatever it's called) but I wonder if that'd be an option.
I hope there's no signs SS will be going anywhere soon though?

I think since it's hard to find on search engines, SS is already technically deep web. But dark net would be the next step but that would make it a lot harder to use

 

[FuneralCry]

I don't care anymore if this site goes away. It doesn't mean anything to me. I just want to never wake again. If this site existed or not I would still be trapped in the same existence enduring endless days. I will always be suicidal no matter what as long as I exist.

Not A LOT — just a bit slower, you have it bookmarked and that's it.
I suppose they did not want to make it onion link because this site also has some hidden agenda, like data processing and the more people use it, the better. If it was such a hidden society, then there would be no twitter account for SS — if there is twitter, there is promotion.

 

[aladdin]

I'll hopefully be dead. I'm very grateful for this community and the support it offers. I'm well educated now and ready to go.

 

[damaged_soul]

Before I found this site, I was on r/promortalism (I'm still on there) and a pro-choice support group called ASH (Alternative Suicide Holiday). r/promortalism is great but suicide methods can't be discussed there due to Reddit policies. ASH allows discussing suicide methodology, but ever since the original forum got shut down, it's become kind of dead so there isn't much info anymore. I'm so glad I found this site because it's the best of both worlds. I don't know what I'd do if this site got taken away from me. That reminds me, I really should copy down more SN info from this site into my suicide research notes so that I have the info as a backup in case the site gets taken down. I don't want to repeat the same mistake where I wasn't proactive about getting N before D shut down.

 

[plan c]

With the site gone nothing on internet would soothe my pain anymore. Not reddit, not twitter, nor anything else.
Guess I'll drop out of academy, go on an exile and roam from place to place like a lost soul.

 

[SectOfValtiel]

I dont really know... I only found it recently and it was by chance, if it went down Id probably be pretty lost again
Id probably just go back to complete isolation
I mean, Im still struggling not to right now

 

[HermitLonerGuy]

yeah this site getting shut down is one of my biggest fears.
I have some good friends here who i like chatting with.
I better get their discords or something in case.
I do feel SJWS will get us shut down.

 

[Gray Wounds]

I'll kill myself. Losing this site is an ultimatum I cannot take. This site is the only home where I can be me.

 

[Bigpink]

Nowhere

 

[Hirokami]

I could find something like this on the dark web with a bit of digging if this site were to get shut down. The only caveats are that the site would be terribly slow and would have to look like it came right out of the '90s to be remotely functional. Beggars can't be choosers, though.

Yeahhh I just discovered there's a twitter and didn't know how to feel about that…

 

[Meaninglessness]

Sanctioned Suicide is the best website for people who want to write about death and suicide. If I write the same words somewhere else, I will be switched off. It is good to be able to communicate with others who are in the same situation, when it isn´t possible to talk to people about suicide. But writing about death will not make it happen. I must find the courage to die myself.

 

[BipolarExpress]

I don't know where I'd go. This is the only forum I can think of where you can talk openly about having suicidal urges without being pelted with platitudes. I'd like to know how I can go with the minimum of fuss if I get to that point.
