Anti Suicide is opinion based. They stop you from self harming or commiting suicide because it's based on their opinion as "bad" or "wrong", and because they THINK they can help you, whether or not if they can is unknown and depends on you and your choice.

An anti suicide phrase that pissed me off the most is, "I have trauma too and I managed to recover" or "I used to cut myself and be suicidal and I managed to recover, so can you." THAT'S NOT HOW IT FUCKING WORKS. Just because you managed to get over and live with something terrible that happened to you or something awful that you went through doesn't mean everyone else can, external factors such as financial matters and social issues can prevent recovery. Congrats, you survived and now you have a know it all attitude and have been persuaded by society to have an opinion on something that doesn't only affect you.

AND maybe people don't fucking want to recover and keep living with something that screwed them up for life, trauma can be unbearable to live and coexist with and there's only so much you can do before you run out of options, out of meds and coping mechanisms. And if someone's depressed by something deeply ingrained into society and can't be easily changed then WHY force them to live and put up with bullshit they didn't sign up for? Why make them live with mistakes that other people made and force them to deal with or fix them?

The involuntary commitment bullshit is insanely unfair, the system they support by working for causes depression and trauma yet they crucify you for reacting to it or doing things on your own terms instead of minding their fucking business and being aware of the problems they caused and can't and won't fix. Fuck psychiatry and wards.

There's no reason to be forced into one unless you're harming someone else or causing trauma to someone, if it's someone cutting themselves or trying to kill themselves then there's no reason to intervene, they aren't committing a crime, killing yourself isn't a crime, cutting yourself isn't a crime neither. These places made it extremely worse for me. I hope they change these dumbass laws soon.

Beautiful post! As far as I'm concerned, suicide prevention as it currently exists is nothing more than forced life slavery on someone who doesn't want it. I understand wanting to help someone who is suffering and wants to live still, but for someone who doesn't want to live, they need a different kind of help, and to me that would be doctor assisted suicide. Sucks it can't just be legal everywhere so we can easily get a peaceful way out whenever we want it.
