Suicide Forum

I joined this site becaused I felt bad depressed and was suicidal. They really helped me feel better. I don't go much now but only when I feel depressed. The staff are nice.

Don't let the name scare you. This is not a pro-suicide forum, and most members are not actively suicidal. It's a great place for support for depression, anxiety and other mental disorders (and a lot of members are dealing with physical issues as well) and has good chat rooms. Definitely if you're having suicidal ideation, there are lots of people to talk to about it. If you're in a crisis and think you may harm yourself, it's still best to call a crisis line or go to the ER.

There were some helpful and reassuring posters, when I first joined. Someone recommended it to me, but there was one particular person (who I don't want to name to protect my privacy) that I had a problem with. That person said things that I don't think is helpful for people in crisis. I left the forum, and couldn't be happier. Other places in my life been more helpful for me. My life has significantly improved and is overall good now. I don't see myself posting on that forum again. If you had a negative experience here, you're not alone. It may be very helpful for others, because we are all different.

The fact that this is not a major charity and is not centrally controlled means that it does have helpful useful resources and comment, which Samaritans cant provide. Also an enormous lot of comments about a wealth of subjects

When I first joined that site, the members were all wonderful, supportive and helpful. I made some friends there, met a few people face-to-face who remain friends. I even had a growing relationship with another member who was distant but we were working on the logistics of meeting. But when the site owner takes a dislike to you, she and her sidekick will go to any lengths to insult you, to interfere with you, to hurt you. And if you say anything to them about it, they belittle you, talk about you with other people and pretty much destroy any progress that you may have made. In my case, The forum owner and her nasty little sidekick went in and red the personal communication between the lady that I mentioned above and I, then they went to her behind my back and completely poisoned the relationship that she and I had been growing. I was and am completely devastated over that and when I said something to the forum owner, both she and her little sidekick told me that they can do anything they want to because it's their forum, they own it, and they will do what they want. They went on to say that my complaints meant nothing to them because first they would have to actually care about me which they did not. The site can be very helpful but it can also be very destructive.

I had the pleasure of receiving a less than supportive reply on my thread from the site owner. I am dealing with an abusive husband, and she started shaming and victim blaming me. Another staff member came on the thread, was very hurtful towards me and shamed me as well. When I filed a complaint, the site owner became extremely abusive towards me and neither staff member would take ownership of their offensive behavior towards me. She even accused me of being the abuser in my relationship when I'm the abuse victim!!!! And the staff member who was very rude to me had said: "I wouldn't want to be with you with THAT attitude!" When I am standing up to abuse from my husband and am verbally fighting back!!!!! WTF?????? What kind of "support" is this? It's a suicide prevention site, and these comments and treatment practically made me suicidal!!! I went there for help with my abusive marriage, not to become more of a victim to more abuse and victim shaming and blaming!!!!!!! This kind of thing could send someone into a mental health downward spiral!!! Jesus. WARNING: do NOT join this site if you want improved mental health!!!
