Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

People will say one thing but turn on you the second you open up to them. They'll spread roomers or just back-out with an excuse like 'you're to negative so I don't want to be your friend." Yeah, REAL friend there. The chances are if they say something like that they never were your friend. REAL friends say, "we'll get through this" or "I respect your choice" or it doesn't even have to be words; it can be actions like listening without judging, making you laugh, giving you space when you need it. or giving you food/a gift.
This is sad but true most people won't stick around. they think more and more about themselves and society frowns upon venting, calling it "negative" and "negative" people are widely hated, even if they're suicidal or just think differently. I'm sorry for people's attitudes towards venting, they say we all need a safe place and then the second you vent they just use "you're too negative" as an excuse to not help. They're so shallow, its depressing. So yeah, I hate people.
This is dogshit advice. Stop alienating yourself from others. A lot of people here are in ruts and need all the help they can get. Nobody will completely agree with you.
A few of these aren't so terrible though...some people actually believe in others...even need it just to survive themselves or would also CTB. It's almost like life is one giant ponzi scheme.
It can help. If you want to spend all your time meditating. For me it's a temporary remedy with a very subtle effect that works only while you're at it. As soon you stop, everything comes back.
Maybe with more training.
Even so, to me, not everyone adapts to meditation. It simply won't work.

I feel strange and confused….. I do tell people here they can talk to me….. I really mean it. I can't be always helpful, but I'm trying to be understanding……

I don't know. "You can talk to me" and "You're amazing" are things I wish I was hearing. I do wish someone would say that to me and mean it. It could really mean the world. Instead I hear "You need professional help I can't provide" and "I can't deal with this too".
I get the point, just... if only.
Excellent post. Thank you for pointing all of this out.
Yes, the same people who didn't want to - not couldn't, didn't want to - simply be there for you when you were in crisis - and a lot times, not all, but a lot of times those of us who are brought to suicide tend to be the sensitive, perceptive types who were there for these same people when they needed someone - will roll their eyes at your "weak" and "selfish" desire to leave this life (there is nothing "weak" about soldiering through what we have soldiered through and if we were that "selfish" we would have ended a long time ago but we "selfishly" kept going in order to avoid hurting the very people you are posting about), poison others against you and thereby making you feel all the more isolated with your anguish will want cry their tears and ring their hands in shock and sadness and wail, "Why oh why oh why didn't they reach out to me? They seemed fine, why oh why oh why didn't they at least give us some indication that something was wrong???".
Yeah why DIDN'T we reach out to them...oh yeah because they would just call us negative as an excuse to ditch us when we helped them through their hard time. Friendships are so one sided, sometimes I wonder if there are any real ones out there. Most ae super shallow because normal people don't suffer like us.

this really just applies to people who aren't on thjs site. we've heard it all and mean things when we say them, thats why this wenbsite is so private, because people can't handle the truth
And a lot of responses here say that it's absolutely correct, to steer clear from people like me, I guess?
awww. @Midgardsorm!! Of course, you can always vent/ talk to me, if you want to!! I'd love us to talk about anything!!
I think, at this point, it just goes without saying.
I like the bingo comments. I demand SS platitude bingo night.
We'll make bingo cards out of these, someone can stream one of those "how to deal with suicidal thoughts" videos, stamp whenever the person in the video says something on the card, and the winners get free N. (You know, in my fantasy world where that is a reasonable prize.)

Agreed, I feel like most of the time they just say that and then never actually talk to you, they expect you to talk to them. But it's not easy to do that.
Those brain dead bros can take all their showers, pizzas, video games, and gym equipment, and stuff them up their asses like Thanksgiving whales. Well, not their showers. They would unleash a sugar-coated shit tsunami to drown all the world's pessimists.

I'd tell someone to live for the companion animal depending on them, if there was one. That's about moral decency. Not much different to adopting a very young human child depending on you, then abandoning them to suffer (other than the human child probably grows up to develop rational thought that can help them learn to cope, but the other animal can't). Other animals aren't insentient decorations you keep around for a bit & throw away whenever you want. Suicidal people aren't complete victims that can't do bad things. They're still moral agents. Someone can stop talking to another who'd tell them that, but running away from someone telling them the truth & holding them accountable for such a serious thing isn't good & I strongly disagree with encouraging it. I get that it sucks to be forced to live, I have to stay alive for my bunny daughter, but this is what we sign up for when we adopt/rescue. We're not the victims in this situation, we need to stop acting like it.
