suicide isn't a joke
3 years ago
the fandom lost
bendor last month to it. he left with a single message for us and was gone. it hurt bad and still does
I lost another friend to it two years ago and didn't find out until months later.
I've wanted to do it myself several times, the urges come less and less because I'm working myself out of the thing that causes it.
I will not tolerate people who use it to get sympathy and attention, that's very fucked up to do.
the people who are serious about it, are quiet about it, not once have I seen someone scream "IM GOING TO DOWN ALL THE MEDS" "IM GONNA GET ME A GUN" etc. all over FA and social medias.
do not take something very serious and use it to cry wolf, you will lose friends, and those that remain will have less respect for you.
if you are serious about it, talk to friends or hell, call 1-800-273-825 or visit https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/

I will say in my personal experience I have had friends tell me they were going to kill themselves and then indeed have. But I agree that people that try and say it for attention or drama reasons are the scum of the fucking earth.

Bendor made a very big mistake. He's caused permanent damage on others for that where they are not the same people as they used to be. Me thinks this pandemic is indirectly causing more young people to take their lives, but it goes beyond that since the causes of suicide varies greatly.



I wouldn't say he caused damage in the context of being rid of his own pain.

Hence I said damage on others. He may be free from his own pain, but the pain he inflicted on others for this is permanent.



I think you mean grief because I register "damage" as "harm." In which case, it would be like taking the deceased's name in vain by cursing him with hurting others.

I was trying to emphasize how suicide hurts others. Guess I wasn't wording it right.



Understandable for what you meant, given subject sensitivity

That's right, Draconas! Suicide is not a joke, it's really bad and very heartbreaking for ones' family, friends, and relatives. I am very shocked and heartbroken about Bendor taking his life away by suicide, but I agree with you, big guy. I will never use you to get sympathy and attention, because it's really not wise and I will never take something very serious and use it to cry wolf. Thank you for the message and R.I.P. Bendor. *gives you big fat hugs to you*
