World Suicide Prevention Day

[BipolarGuy]

Apparently today, 10th September, is world suicide prevention day.

The purpose of world suicide prevention day/suicide prevention month, is two fold:

1. An opportunity for organisations to inform the public about how to prevent somebody from taking their own lives, while more generally nothing is done to address the many reasons why people actually do it.

2. While there are many genuine and decent people out there, the main purpose of world suicide prevention day is to provide an opportunity for virtue signalers to upload content to social media in order to show everybody just how awesome they are.
Such posts might include, but are not limited to

- "I've been nominated to video myself doing 25 pushups to raise awareness of suicide"

- "I've stand with those effected by suicide....only 1% will share this post....will YOU?"

- "I'm going to display the suicide awareness ribbon on my profile picture"

- A picture of a mountain/sunrise/sunset/lake/beach with a 'inspirational caption'

- "I want all my friends on Facebook to know that if they're going through a tough time I'm always up for a chat....so here's the phone number for a suicide prevention hotline in case you need it".

I certainly don't want to take away from the majority of people who ARE genuine, but from my experience many of the virtue signalers are quite simply the most intellectually lazy, judgemental, ignorant people out there, and they quite honestly only upload supportive content to polish the image they're creating of themselves.

Huh. I wasn't aware of suicide. I don't think the majority of people on this site were either.

J/k. I wasn't aware of the ribbon, so I'll step up and do my part to make others aware. Here you go:



Repost if you give a shit. I bet I know who won't.

Damn you twisted my arm.

You should have said
"According to ancient Chinese tradition, sharing this will bring you good luck and wealth".

Oh, if only I was ready. It would be so good to go out on that day. Not that it should be a reason to kill yourself, but if you know you're going to ctb anyway, no harm in making a statement!

"Repost if you give a shit. I bet I know who won't"

I wouldn't be surprised if some members put me on ignore for even joking like that!

(I bet I know who will...)

OK not only does this World Suicide Awareness Day sound like a joke but it's probably overshadowed greatly by 9/11 awareness. And of course they have a stupid ribbon for it. I consider myself blessed to have never encountered either of these bs awareness days in my life.

I don't know. I just barely got here.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'll get to the bottom of this sui:cide mystery, even if it kills me.

It is suicide prevention day for sure, and I think suicide awareness month?

The day was started by WHO. The week was started by documentary film producers. I don't remember who started the month.

You are not aware?

Behold, a dark cloud of virtual signalers looms above us. Nevertheless, there remains a silver lining-- hardly anyone is actually doing anything proactive to prevent suicide. I mean stuff like trying to get substances used for suicide banned, and/or getting access to suicide jumping spots blocked.

Apologies, I'll do 25 more press ups to make up for my lack of awareness!

Reducing access to methods isn't that helpful. If you want to change how people feel, change the things that make them feel like it.

Apparently today, 10th September

Wait.... Youre from the future. It's still the 9th here. Hurry give me the lotto numbers lol

 

[VIBRITANNIA]

pro-"lifers" don't care about why people commit suicide. they just want more sheep they can manipulate and work to death.

i put life in quotes because they don't really care about people living and not just surviving, they just care about taking away people's right to ctb.

A relative of mine posted this on FB:



That telephone number is for the USA, we're in the UK

In Singapore, two mothers started the "Please Stay" campaign. Of course they went straight for the guilt trip.

I think the Jewish community is trying to start the "Suicide Will Kill Your Poor Mother" campaign.

Arabs have the "Honor Killings Prevent Suicides" campaign.

The US is heading toward a "Make Suicide Great Again" campaign.

@GoodPersonEffed @worried_to_death You two have me dying over here. Thanks for the laugh

I got more.

"In Russia, suicide does not kill us. We kill suicide."

China: "Suicide kills your social score."

France: "Suicide is boring like an American."

Germany: "Suicide: for me it is too easy. I will do something harder."

Canada: "Suicide is not nice."

They just keep coming, each better than the last.
You're a machine.

Mom is that you?

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

Is there a Harakiri prevention day?

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

I wonder if there's an opposite day to the Suicide Prevention Day. A day in which everyone let others do whatever they want with their life. Without saying some prolife shit
