  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at admin@sanctioned-suicide.net.

I'm trying to stick around for my family but there are certain things I keep coming back to. Mainly that the world feels like a terrible place and my existence is contributing to that. For example, climate change. I don't believe this will be solved before it's too late and what is the point of continuing to live if the world will become even more terrible? But I don't have the energy or willpower to do things like recycle or live responsibly.

The thoughts I have feel a lot like the ones I had as a teenager - that life is pointless and everything is meaningless so why not die. I eventually came to the conclusion that meaning is something you have to create for yourself and thought I was happy with that. But nowadays I feel like I lack the capacity to create any kind of meaning, and to do so is irresponsible and just burying my head in the sand when so many people are suffering.

I think thoughts like this should make me want to help people but they just make me want to die. I don't know how to get past them and I would really like some suggestions. I've told the mh team I'm under about my suicidal thoughts and all the ever say is that I should try to distract myself, but am I supposed to spend my whole life doing that? It doesn't feel like a solution at all.

I get what you mean... I often find myself in the same situation. Distractions are only temporary, and it can be hard, but think back to your roots and find reasons to live besides your family - then it will be easier to think of them when considering your reasons to live. This can be terribly hard as most of us have lost enjoyment in a lot of things, but find things you enjoy doing or try to find inspiration somehow. Drawing whatever comes to mind usually helps somewhat.
Sending love and good luck :heart:
