"Maybe you should stop seraching for different ctb forums and do something beneficial to society ?". The author of these words was the person who actually wanted to end her life. I am not a prolifer, i just talked to her and later she said i helped her, but i did not actually. I never said a single word about how life is beautiful and other bullshit, neither read any notations to her. I was just supportive. Yes, i actually felt BETTER when she said i saved her life, the problem is... she did not understand my pro-choice predisposition. I feel guilty now, she is an absolute dumbass and she thinks SHE does a lot for society (she is an english teahcer now, but not volunteer. This is just a job, you now. Good one of course. And she gets paid for it). This was so stupid, i had some second thoughts like "i should not try help her at all"

Sorry everyone, it happened so that i raised new prolifer... i did not intend to do that

"life is so precious" "it gets better" "have you tried exercising and eating healthy?" lol

As if I would even want to lol

That's a shame, but it's okay.

Close your eyes, picture a box, put all your troubles into the box, seal it, pass it to the person next to you.

Only problem with that was, the person next to me gave me a box full of troubles in return

CBT, the biggest load of BS I have ever had the misfortune to have to listen to. Not exactly pro life as such, but just as condescending.

"The police have confiscated my N and I'm now in a psych ward and here's a picture of a hospital bedpost and printable form to prove it! (cue thumbsup by loads of random accounts that are clearly not alts)" was a popular one last month.

If they can't stop you with their cliches, they will try to stop you by scaring you.

 

[woxihuanni]

Everything, really. Even the small interactions, not just about ctb. They don't care to listen and learn what you think or feel, so they keep pushing irrelevant and unpleasant stuff on you. Like awful entertainment stuff.

There are people worse off than you.

Oh yes, that's a favourite. As if I should be orgasming thinking of little kids dying and knowing I'm luckier or something.

 

[eve2004]

After seemingly exhausting all options that I was willing to try (and I am not willing to "try" much...) "What can I do to help?"

My pdoc said that. I'll always remember. I can put myself in his shoes... he didn't show any frustration, just sincerely wanting to help me feel better. Although he knows I don't want to try any other meds he still wants to see me regularly, like every 2 weeks (covered by medicare) to see how I'm doing.

You confuse those who don't want to screw up work
they are preparing for CTB and are looking for reliable ones

members) with pro-lifers.

They forget the bit where Jesus can't fuck you. Religion has its priorities completely wrong.

"I understand" . Yea, i'm sure you do

By that logic I suppose the only reasonable thing to do is to decapitate myself and place my head in a box. Would hate to be the next person to receive my ugly mug.

I laughed so hard at that one.

Jesus lol you have a way with words!

That's a great way to put that "people have it worse than you" line in its place.

This is pure gold haha. Now I am tempted to say that to the next prolifer who says that to me XD

Jesus spoke about the presence of God (His Kingdom) among the living people and within us.
Pro-lifers do not read apocryphal gospels and do not know the whole
Jesus' teachings.

I agree, life of Brian will be my film to watch before I go!

"This will pass"
"I want you to know I'm praying for you"

...telling me you're praying for me sort of defeats the purpose. What you really want is my gratitude and attention for your prayers. Just tell me you don't know what to say, there are no words for something this profound. I'll never thank you for praying or judge you for your beliefs, but it's a dumb flex. My understanding is that your God rewards you for the good deeds you do in private (I was told this by a Christian).
It also makes me feel like they think that once they've prayed, they've done the most and can feel proud of themselves (although I realize this isn't always the case--again, no judgment).
People have good intentions but sometimes it's so exhausting to hear this kind of talk when there are so many other things that can be done to help. Praying may help you, but it doesn't help me. Show up. Or don't. But don't pray for me, tell me about it and then act like you're so special that your prayers will cure me.

The Suicide Hotline says, "take a bath", "go for a walk", "read a book".

As if suicide is totally treatable by just distracting yourself. Maybe that's valid in some cases, but certainly not in all. It's especially insulting when you've been living and fighting for YEARS. I bathe daily, the water falling down on me "should" feel cleansing, but personally it's where I feel most vulnerable and self-harmy. Like all my sins and failures are raining down on me.

This forum on the other hand has given me more comfort and made me feel more understood than anything/one else. Having control over how I go, having access to resources and reading about other experiences has given me more relief than anything.

If you haven't personally been through this...I really don't want your comfort. And if someone thinks they can give me some sort of quick fix then I'm sure that's really satisfying. For them.

 

[Sweet emotion]

The few that piss me off the most are...
No matter how bad what you're going through is, someone else out there just going through something worse. I mean is that supposed to make me feel better? It's morbid to feel better because if someone else's pain and I'm the only person who has to live MY life so if someone else is worse off than me it makes no difference to me. While I feel bad for them it just doesn't matter. I have to deal with what I'm going through. I have the highest ranking pain condition in medical history and it's taken everything from me and left me in physical agony and isolation. When you can't get out of bed it doesn't get much worse than that.
Another one that pisses me off is everything happens for a reason. Umm. No it doesn't. There should be no reason to make someone so miserable to the point where they kill themselves.
And the last, God has a plan for you. I'm not even going to get started on that one.
