How did you find out about this forum

[SHThrowAway213]

Interested
I was on the SS subreddit

 

[Pilum Muralis]

I use to browse r/suicidewatch, and someone had mentioned this forum. I lurked for awhile, as I have never really participated in forum discussion before. I'm shy, and am always afraid of saying stupid stuff. You know, that awesome low self esteem. But everyone here is so genuine, caring, and welcoming. It has actually helped me mentally to be able to express my feelings and thoughts to people. It's nice to be able to say "I wish I were dead", and not get preached to about how great life is, if I only tried.

A simple search engine search, and I ended up finding it, and I'm glad I did!

Somebody on r3ddit sw mentioned it, they were subsequently banned, or whatever r3ddit does to naughty people that don't fit the agenda of the particular sub.

I heard there was something by reading a R3ddit post, can't remember where. I googled and found this . I was a poster on the old SS R3ddit.

 

[Grey-zone]

I think it was from a book about the "dark web" which mentioned suicide forums. It either talked about SS directly, or led me to search for pro-choice forums that in turn brought me here. These kinds of forums have been around since the early 90s.

Was on the subreddit then after it got shut I googled SS and presto.

 

[21Neberg]

I remember searching for methods when I found this forum. All of the sudden I felt so much less alone, which was great. I just hope nobody finds me obnoxious sometimes.

 

[inconsequential]

Googled "sanctioned suicide". It's what the sub was called, as well as an old Discord chat.

 

[DepressionsAHo]

Reddit. But not in the way you might think
Someone linked it on there because someone was asking for a suicide forum

 

[blanketyblk]

Reddit. poor bugger that posted the link got banned too :-(

 

[Morphinekiss]

Someone I know mentioned it a long time ago. (Hey if you're here ) I joined only because I really wanted to comment on something but I don't think I did.

 

[daikon]

I think I was loooing up methods which brought ne to r/suicidewatch, and after wasting my time with the idiots there I think I searched "pro-suicide forum" (which brought me back to a r/suicidewatch post with a link to Sanctioned Suicide.)

They did him a favour. Reddit is trash.

 

[not_a_robot]

lol Buzzfeed and Google News pointed me here with "prevention" articles and the Streisand effect.

Thanks, Google and Buzzfeed.
So grateful to finally know I'm not alone in thinking the world is stupid and wishing to leave it.

I was desperately searching anything i can about nitrogen exit bags and other similar methods. Hanging is not for me, and i had huge breakdown at the time so i dive in deep. After looong Google search, somewhere on page 17 i found ONE link do this forum, exit bag mega-thread to be specific. Then I've read some user stories, then another one and another, and i just fell in love, realized this forums is EXACTLY what i was looking for. My new safe heaven, filled with good read and people who can understand.

 

[Kikoo Loool]

I was just looking for long drop hanging tips on serach engines.

[SinisterKid]

I went to see the Vicar and told him I was suicidal and he offered to pray for me. So I went to see the local psychologist and told him I was suicidal and he gave me some tablets to take and said I would feel better. Neither appeared to work out very well for me so I went to see Mr Google and told him I was suicidal and he recommended this place. Nice fella that Mr Google.

Exactly! I have my 3mo psych med check up on Tues. 1st since this bout of depression/suicidal thoughts, feelings hit. And I'm so anxious about it.

I was researching SN poisoning which led me to articles about Shawn Shatto, which led me here.

I saw a subreddit where someone complained about the closing of the SS subreddit.
