Suicide threads

So, let's say you have the urge to commit suicide. As in you really want to do it, not the "BAWW PITY ME" kind of suicide. Question is, why would you make a thread about it before you do the deed?

    not the "BAWW PITY ME" kind of suicide.

    For context's sake, most suicidal acts are exactly that and very very extremely serious. Not many people really, honest-to-goodness want to die, so suicide is an inherently communicative act.

    Yes, but there does seem to be a "over the top, it's painfully obvious you're not really going to do it, you're just trying to milk us for pity" line.

    Going through with it or not is beside the point.

    I don't even get the difference, don't you mean really threatening suicide vs. feigning suicide?


    And some people actually need help from other people to find reasons to be lulled out of killing themselves, just like how hostage takers need to be convinced/negotiated with to release their hostages.

    Sometimes when you are depressed you can't find the silver lining because the amount of shit you are going through is so immense it's hard to focus on something else.

    I'm sorry, it's the middle of the night and I can't think straight

    Doesn't matter whether it's pityfishing or not, procedure is pretty much the same: don't feel responsibly or guilty if it's one of the cases where the person does follow through, and try to find out who the person is IRL and contact emergency services/someone they know in order to intervene. It be suprising how quick the pityfishers stop once they find out their emotional manipulation has meatspace consequences. Plus, if it is a rare serious case, you might've prevented a legitimate an-hero.

    I've had encounters with suicide. An ex-girlfriend had a cry for help suicide attempt in my college dorm shower. It was emotionally distressing to shower in there after I got back from the hospital. Luckily it was cleaned out already. Recently, a friend had another friend that I don't know commit suicide by overdosing on helium. His friend left a note and had her accounts in order before she died. No one saw it coming.


    Basically, if someone really really wants to kill themselves, you probably won't know it.

    @OP: The usual "I'm gonna off myself....waaaah." thread? Bores me to tears, last I checked, nobody has gone through and done it; just the usual faggotry.

    Some people are indeed looking for sympathy, and it's not always a bad thing.

    ^Just thought your reply to Noir makes no sense whatsoever. It's like you skimmed the post.

    Okay then.


    The ex who attempted "suicide" just wanted attention in the end. Oh she got it until she tripped over her own lies...

  • BobBob
    What if they are planning on going through with it and just think alerting whoever they socialize with online is a good idea for whatever reason?

    lol JK, stupid whining bitches
