  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

Interesting take. Kudos to the original author if he didn't personally experience the steps, as it would show a sense of empathy and understanding that's often lacking in professionals.

Some details don't seem to apply to me, but the general steps certainly brought up memories. Nevertheless, it's nothing that I wasn't aware of and haven't brought up here already. Simple awareness doesn't make me less inclined to CTB.

How did it make you feel to read this?

It seems like I am nothing like the average suicidal... most of it is not applicable to me. But I don't think that I am an anomaly, it has more to do with the fact that you simply can't put all or even most suicidals in a neat box and generalize their motivations and experiences. Psychologists will try anyway because it supports their worldview that suicidality is a symptom of a disease, rather than a rational decision.
