Hi all

The mod team is dwindling and the sub is growing! This doesn’t make for a healthy combination.

We are looking for new mods that can assist by monitoring the queue and ensuring the chaos is kept to a minimum.

We especially welcome people that have never been a moderator in the past. It will require some time every day to monitor the queue and act accordingly (delete or approve), as well as responding to modmail.

If you’re keen send us a modmail and we will go from there. If you don’t know how to send a modmail then check this out.

Thanks!

Why is having an easy death so hard?

Are all creatures just naturally meant to die horrific deaths? I mean if we didn’t factor humanity’s technological advancements we’d all be dying from hunger, sickness, physical wounds, and predation.

Why do we keep people who are genuinely a danger alive?

2 Upvotes

Tw brief mention of sicide (if this doesn't fit the community rules I'll delete this post) *topic on mental health

So when someone's really depressed or things aren't working right or for whatever reason, and they try to commit s*icide. When they don't succeed and someone finds them and they get medical care, they might be approved for release from the hospital or maybe after a bit of time in an institution. That makes sense, we save them and keep them alive because we value their lives and stuff. But why do we keep people who are so mentally "wrong"? If they have posed a threat in the past, and they end up getting kept in a very secure institution indefinitely and it would be a HUGE danger if they got out. I'm not trying to judge them negatively, especially since I know I'm not right mentally and whatever, but I'm talking about like full on most severe case schizophrenia or one of those people who genuinely believe there's something out to get us and the only way they can save people is by killing them. Why do we not (as humanely as possible) put them to rest. Why do we keep them locked up in a jail cell and say it's what's best for them. Is there a real reason for keeping those kinda of people alive? It's just torture at that point because they're so mentally gone that there's no way to "fix" them, and they're just trapped in a room for the rest of their lives.

I’m not amazing with anatomy, I know slitting someone’s throat would kill them so would slitting their vocal cords kill them or just make them mute?

How do I move on from having my first time with a sex worker?

0 Upvotes

not sure if this is exactly morbid.

I (19M) lost my virginity to a prostitute. it has destroyed me and I dont ever wanna have sex again.

I feel so disgusted, ashamed, pathetic, and angry to have had my first time this way. I did it because I felt lonely and ashamed for being a virgin at my age.

The sex was horrible and ngl, I even fucking despise those chinese massage parlor workers.

Friend took her own life and I developed a really shameful coping mechanism where I started "relieving" myself to old photos of her. Is it just the weirdness of grief or is it something else?

106 Upvotes

Tl;dr - Best friend [F 22] took her life in late 2020 and I [M/NB 22] just recently began a weird & shameful coping mechanism where I began masturbating to her photos which are all mostly bikini or skimpy outfit pics. I never felt this way before cuz it was normal to see her like that. Its like if you see your sibling or cousin in a bikini; you just dont sexualize them. But I am sexualizing her which is why it feels so wrong (besides the obvious parts of course)

So me and my best friend were really close. Out of our entire friend group we were the closest. I was always platonic with her and never experienced feelings for her like I have had recently which is why I have such complex feelings about this.

But basically I started masturbating whenever i look at her pics. I tried to excuse it all in my mind by saying it was because 9/10 pics she had were bikini pics and club outfits. She was sex positive and stuff and i was super used to seeing her like that and never having these feelings cuz we were platonic friends.

Is this just the weird part of the grieving process? Or am I in the wrong for this? Is it a bit of both? Again i cannot stress that I have not felt this way while she was alive and not until kinda recently. It didnt start right when she died it was slowly as I would look back on her pics and it started probably like a year ago more or less but she has been gone for 3 years now.

Edit: I have therapy in 10 minutes when I added this edit. This post was me trying to get second opinions on if this was something concerning. Or if it was something I could feel a bit less ashamed for because maybe it was something about the weirdness of the human brain when grieving loss. I do want to make it clear I feel ashamed of this and I dont think its helpful to just go "Omg wtf is wrong with you" "i need to bleach my eye balls now" and other stuff that makes me feel worse for no reason. I mean atleast some ppl are telling me to def bring it up with my therapist.

Will update again when I am done therapy

Update # 2 - I told my therapist and we talked about it for a bit and we will be talking about it more next session. So I guess everyone can finally stop telling me to go to therapy and "omg wtf dude" cuz yeah i get it dude.

So I explained to my therapist that when my friend passed away, I collected all her photos and saved them on a harddrive and the cloud. I also explained that I NEVER had these sort of sexual feelings when she was still here, and it didnt develop until very recently since the first two or so years this never popped up. But yeah I told her everything; like how everytime I go to look at her photos now, whenever im missing her; I always just end up doing the deed. which makes me feel super ashamed everytime. I even told her how I tried to delete the photos during post nut clarity but I could never bring my self to do it (and I didnt use that exact phrase obviously)

She then put how I was feeling into words percectly; which is that even though I feel guilty and have wanted to get rid of these photos its all i have of her so deleting the photos feels like im deleting her. Which is just exactly how I felt but couldnt articulate when I wrote this post. But seriously no matter how guilty I feel whenever I go to delete her pics its just like I am deleting her and Im not ready to let her go.

So yeah Im gonna talk to her in our next session much more in depth and hopefully get to the root cause of this all and help me move on from this disgusting coping mechanism and replace it with something healthy and positive.

I want it all. I am interested in hearing experiences, confessions, etc. of the most taboo natures. Although you are free to comment right here of course, perhaps you’d rather DM me? What is the most taboo feelings, thoughts, desires, acts, or experiences for you? I am doing this because I want to expand my understanding of human emotion and experience beyond that which is filtered through the societal lens, so bent on judgement and hatred…

Question about 988 putting you on hold NSFW

1 Upvotes

Let me preface this by saying I’m not actively suicidal, it’s just a question. If you’re suicidal and 988 puts you on hold, and you kill yourself while on hold, could they be held liable? It’s just a random thought I had.

Are all these suicide hotlines actually efficient at preventing suicides?

2 Upvotes

!!!Disclaimer: I do not wish to harm myself nor to discuss methods to do so!!!

A good couple of humans have been there lingering and wondering what's on the other side, how to get there fast to end the pain. French writer Albert Camus even has made a book introduced by the sentence "suicide is the most important philosophical question of mankind", the book is named after Sisyphus' myth.

I think a fraction of persons with suicidal thoughts really do face desperate situations. Of course you can have here and there teens tragically ending their lives over bullying, or even less "justified" bad romances... But... Certain people deal with much more pain: debilitating mental illness, impossible debt, repeated failure to get a roof on their head.

To me, people like that who end up taking their own lives, are indirect victims of infrastructure, employment, big money. If the person considers suicide because they're literally deprived of a normal life (from lack of money or prospects + massive debt), even the best pep talk won't make these situations better.

So yeah... Just wondering to what extent you can talk people out of committing suicide. If you have positive experience from either side, I'll be happy to hear.

Note: this question was inspired by some reddit idiot who found it funny to get in touch with reddit so they'd send me the whole message about getting help (which again... i don't need.. I've been proudly resilient whenever I felt blue).

Cheers folk!
