I once had such thoughts, in that sense, although I would not say about uselessness - this site, first of all, is a very stable and specialized community, . When I needed to describe to the moderators why I wanted to register here, I wrote that here is the place where it would be quite possible to talk about the topic, namely suicide, first of all
- Without odious banners on 70font size with hotline numbers
- Religious intimidation from believers
- without pro-life Bias
If somewhere you can find a discussion of suicide without the first two, then the third will almost always be present, because this is a universal fearful taboo topic, about which no one will even think to talk about it as about some kind of disease, and in no case to talk about it in any other key, except prevention.
The second, important for me personally, if your ultimate target is CTB, this site can have an inspiring effect.
Why do you think the media always talks so little about someone's suicide? Because it will be easier for others to do it. People are so designed that they can do something when they see a worthy example next to them. Accordingly, the media needs to discredit the person as much as possible in the context of the news about suicide, so that each of us would disdain to follow his example.
Here, when someone says goodbye, it is discussed in a completely different way. Look, for example, at the case with Atheist Joe, "All the best to you there" "Rest in peace" "You are a brave soul"
You see a successful example of ctb, and you also see a reaction of universal understanding and empathy towards you. Yes, we are social creatures, and even such a form of , very excuse me ,"approval" of the behavior that you would like to adhere to can have a striking effect on your motivation to ultimately act as you wanted before.
