Discussion Why do you frequent Sasu?

[Nemaki Arber]

I came here because I needed info on suicide methods, but then I found belonging to a place that needs to exist

i've thought a lot on an answer to this question, i think it's (aside from method research) a sense of belonging, even though i don't interact often, being here feels like a group hug with people who understand me

I searched for a place that people understood what it felt like. And to not be censored on certain things

+1 to this. Sasu is a comfortable corner of the Internet us outsiders can hangout in. Explore options. See if i read something that can help with my survival instinct

Only place people can be honest about wanting to CTB

Im new here, but so far this place makes me feel not crazy, and not alone knowing there's plenty of others feeling the same way I do. The world out there paints us out to be crazy, but in reality we just want a break from the world and unfortunately we wasn't given that so we resort to worse outcomes.

I come here when I'm feeling down, there was a time when I was here for CBT. every once in a while I remember the forums and come back

I've been suicidal pretty much my whole life. it's hard to find people who would even come close to understanding how I feel. It's nice to be in a community where we can freerily talk about our struggles and be around understanding people, even now that I put a halt to building my plan and tried recovery again

I just use this place as a way to vent. I haven't found something that makes me happy, so I cope with venting here when i need to. It's actually been very helpful and I'm a lot more at ease with things these days.

I don't know.
50% of it is good, as in thoughtful, beautiful, insightful, heroic, stoic, suffering, human beings, and a community that supports that.
10% is ignorant pro-lifers who just don't get it, or SaSu (including journalists etc in that who have a preconceived negative agenda).
40% is kids (undsr 18) suffering from teenage angst, that shouldn't be here at all, on a site where adults are supposedly free to discuss suicide. Surely there must be more suitable outlets for this (their angst). Imho this will be SaSu's undoing.
I get the impression that SaSu is changing/has changed from recent times, possibly into something that's out of control.

I wanted information on suicide methods. after browsing around i made an account pretty quickly. this forum gave me the same sense of relief that I got when I went into my first AA meeting to realize that there are people like me who understand me.

I wouldn't say I'm frequent. When I come here, it's usually to research methods. I'm not sure how to access fentanyl, which is my preferred method at this point. Plenty of drugs are sold in my city, but I'm not sure how to request a deadly dose of fentanyl or if it's even possible to get fentanyl straight.
