I'm new, please show me around

Just came in here and am new to the whole forum thing. I'd be grateful if someone took my hand and showed me the ropes. Don't want to be insensitive here, I'm just clueless and need some help.

Here is where you can ask questions, like you just did

Hello fellow terminal
I hope showing the ropes also involves showing you the nooses, if that's the case you should go to Suicide Discussion for methods and (you guessed it) discussing suicide
This is the OT section where you can post anything that isn't strictly related to suicide
Recovery is where you ask for help and help others that want to recover from their problems and not kill themselves (don't say "kill themselves", say Catch the bus instead, CTB).
The other three sections on top are for News, Suggestions to improve the site and finding Partners for CTB.
Hope you feel comfortable

So it's strictly asking questions but not getting answers?

Welcome Debiene! There is also a chat if you prefer it: https://sanctioned-suicide.net/chat/

I don't seem to be able to access the chat.
How do I get permission?

That's strange. Maybe you need to write some more posts or responses to access have to it. I can't remember if at very beginning I had it, but you need just a bunch more messages to have the ability to send PMs and, I suppose, to enter the chat

(don't say "kill themselves", say Catch the bus instead, CTB).

You don't have to do this, it's just customary.
