Just discovered my friend might have used SS

[cemetorium]

I've talked about my friend who passed away (CTB) on here before a couple of times. She passed away a few months before I registered on here, but I'd lurked on here for several months prior.
After it happened I checked on here for any posts close to that date to see if I saw anything that could be linked to her, but I didn't see anything.
Anyways. The reason I believe she might've used SS is that I just saw a photo of her being used on sites that oppose it... Honestly my heart sank when I saw her on there. I've never seen any of her family or other friends mention SS in relation to her.
I'm not taking this as complete evidence that she was on here unless I actually figure it out, I don't know if the places I saw where her photo was used were only using pictures of people that have been confirmed to have been members or just people who've CTB in general.

BTW small disclaimer that this doesn't mean I dislike SS now, just in case anyone interprets it that way, it's been immensely helpful to me over the last 2 years both before and after I joined. It just shocked me to see someone I knew have her picture used in relation to the site.

I'm sorry for all of the suffering that brought your friend to the point of ctb, but at least they are now at peace and they found what they were looking for. I wish you the best.

Update... after a bit more digging I can confirm now that she used this site prior to her death and that she used SN. It gives me a weird feeling to know that my friend was on here around the same time that I found SS myself and used the method I'd prefer to use... But since I most likely won't be able to source SN where I live I guess I'll have to go with partial when the time comes.
I still miss her a lot but I'm glad that she's at least at peace now... It's not like I can really blame her when I plan to CTB this year

Are you worried that other might think of you as a follower? Like you're just going with the crowd?

Sometimes I do, yeah. My gf and most of my friends know I've been suicidal for years but I still do worry that they'll think I'm "copying" my friend or something, even though I attempted myself some months prior to her death...
