This website is comforting. When I come here I feel like I can say my most painful thoughts and nobody judges. Maybe nobody even cares, which is fine as well. I just like someone to read my words without any judgement.
I don’t even know if this website is healthy for me to come to. But when I feel like I’m about to explode, I come here and feel a little bit more calm.
Let me tell you something. I have no idea how to be good at life. No idea what so ever. I applaud people that are good at it.

I’ve often questioned whether visiting SP is healthy. It does offer reprieve from life whenever we need it.
I find a deep level of understanding and empathy here and people are openly honest. Maybe it’s that degree of insight which keeps us coming back. Maybe it’s artificial but there is a sense of connection in responding to posts, comments.
Also, I doubt my success at times but I feel better if I can help someone or at least put a smile on their face. I think this may also be Rocketmans philosophy and it’s a good one.
I don’t care if its healthy or not for me, leaving this website isn’t going to make me feel any better. Cuz being alive when you just want to be dead certainly doesn’t feel better
I don’t know whether it’s healthy either. I don’t even know what are my intentions. Am I typing my death wishes to hope for help? Or is this a way of coping to make suicidal thoughts less painful? Am I just crying for attention? Or perhaps I just want to be useful before I die? I do not know
I try not to think of things in terms of ‘healthy’ and ‘not healthy’. That’s the kind of boxes that are dangerous for a public, but we’really traditionally forced into.
I rather think of this site as falling somewhere on one’s scale of necessity…and that’s a sliding scale. When someone has an extremely positive day, some parts of this site can feel a little morose. Definitely less likely to appear those days, as rare as they may be. Conversely, when ideations get high or situations get manic or we’re really thrust into desperate situations where no one in our life can connect to our despair or bring us back- this site can be extremely necessary and helpful.
Anytime I can throw crazy out into the world instead of cramming it inside is a win for my life. This site allows the crazy.
Welcome. I feel at home here! Come here every day. Here is real life and people are true.
