this place saved me

[zombiegirl]

every time im depressed or even a little suicidal i come here and browse, suddenly im way less suicidal than i was before. which is weird cuz you'd think being on a place like this would encourage someone but it really goes to show how important community is

 

[nihilistic_dragon]

It's because here nobody tells you that god will send you to hell if you ctb and no one tries to fix you. It's nice to be around people who understand that the choice to ctb or not to ctb should be available to all.

This is how I usually end up here. I start to think about suicide seriously and get sick of hearing it called "unalived" or some other cutsie euphemism elsewhere. I am tired of hearing that it is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. That's like calling a flare of sickle cell or arthritis or IBS temporary. Yeah, it's temporary but it will always be with me. I will always have another episode around the corner no matter how well I do in other areas. The higher my achievement the deeper my fall.

It's really comforting to read such considerations...

 

[SteamaHorns]

Even when I'm not reading or posting about anything that's explicitly suicide related, I feel far more comforted than when I'm with the people I know. I guess it's because simply knowing that I can talk about these things without worry brings me a sense of peace that I can't get with the people I know personally.

Same. Some of the shit people have gone through on here is so sad. The fact that some people here can carry on going makes me feel like I need to aswell as my problems are so much smaller comparatively

It's nice to be around (even just online) folk who aren't judging you or trying to tell it'll all be okay and get better when you know that it really won't.

Same for me. I can talk freely without being judged and mostly people are allowed to make their own decisions. I find this site so supportive. If it was gone, i would be devastated. Not because of the loss of information of methods. But because of the kindness and support I find here even from people who are suffering greatly themselves. And people on here understand like very few other people do.

Same for me, I have been lurking around SaSu for over a year now, and it has saved me multiple times, so I finally decided to make an account—yay!! ૮₍ ´ ꒳ `₎ა

I really love the majority of this community, and it just feels nice to be around people who understand what you're going thru. When I'm feeling suicidal, I spend hours on SaSu, have a good cry, and I end up feeling better.

Honestly, it's very comforting for me knowing that I can talk about such heavy topics and be really open about what I feel without fearing judgment. I don't have to sugarcoat my thoughts or keep a lot of the things I do or feel secret here.
but I guess that could also be the comfort of talking to strangers too, lol.

 

[MyaMia]

Same, it's comforting reading that so many other people share your feelings and not feeling judged or scared to discuss them.

Checking out the methods is one of my coping mechanisms atm!

 

[Worndown]

We are all glad we can help.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

I'm glad that you feel better when you're here. It's a great community. :-)

It's a pity you feel the need to voice ridiculous opinions that make other people far more suicidal. But as long as you feel better......

 

[JoysoftheEmptiness]

I'm here because I can relate to everyone else here, I'm EUPD/BPD, I'm suicidal, I self-harm, but I want to live, not die. I really want the choice to either without pressure, and I think the people on SaSu accepts that.

what i ever do to you man

what i ever do to you man

"Everyone has BPD now"

 

[maniac116]

I couldn't agree more with you!
Lots of compassion & love here.
I think I'll possibly still CTB at some point.
I came here to look for the most dependable way out but in the process met some very cool people here. And this site isn't "pro suicide". But it's judgement free except for some trolls which is to be expected in an open forum. It's the only forum I belong to. It hits me hard when someone ctbs

sorry i was exaggerating, i didn't mean that in the way you think. i was also very drunk so i understand it came off in a bad way and i don't fault you for misinterpreting that

I have chronic illnesses too & people don't get it. It's very easy to feel alone!

Right??!?! I get so tired of "are you taking your vitamins and getting enough rest/exercise/salad" do-gooder types who think somehow that wasn't the FIRST thing I tried ...
