• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

I've heard people say there's a huge difference between:

1.) not feeling like life is worth it

2.) being depressed

3.) being suicidal

4.) having undergone a suicide attempt


I would be of the opinion (maybe unpopular) that most "suicidal people" who are rescued have not actually attempted more than once. This isn't invalidating what people feel but from my anecdotal experience, the family members/acquiantances I know who all told me that they had a suicide attempt in the past and still thought about it are all dead. The ones who are alive never really attempted to go through with it in their words but had thoughts (which to be fair people have thoughts about things all the time).

Would you agree with this? I think even in psych wards, actual suicide attempts are very very uncommon.
