I have been reading lots of postings on here, I see that many of you who are suicidal are suffering from similar issues, one being that your friends have let you down and that there is no-one that understands what you’re going through.Â
Would it not help to have a group set up where you could all meet up and talk face to face? Maybe you will make friends with each other and your lives may improve – even is your lives didn’t improve, surely having others in your life that at least understand how you’re feeling can ease some of the pain?
I can’t help but feel like shouting at the screen when I’m reading what seems to be the same symptoms, over and over again – there’s a bunch of you here that all feel the same for Gods sake! Are you all too shy or too proud to make actual friends? From the sounds of it, you’re all about to kill yourselves so what do you have to lose? Surely life is worth one little extra attempt before you throw in the towel?
If anyone is interested, please let me know, just respond with a simple ‘yes’ and the area in the UK that you are from. If there are any responses, I will then post my email address and try to organise something.

Yes, I am interested, i’m in London

yep – london x
That is a very good idea. I wish we all lived closer though.
Hi I am from Indonesia, 28-yrs old guy,
it’s funny of how I just happened to come across this website just by instatenously typed “i hate this world + suicide”
and like you, reading all these posts have somewhat made me very much ‘connected’, and even heavily touched — to know that I’m definitely not alone.
This I can somewhat guarantee: that some, heck, MANY of the posts here in this website seem to be very above-average-intelligence posts (yes I would even actually firmly believe that most posters here are probably quite intelligent AND good-natured type of people!).
I am really excited about your suggestion about forming a ‘group’ thing, but since unfortunately I’m not in UK, I would suggest how about creating/organizing a sort of mailing list (group) like Yahoogroups for example? (or is there a better one?)
I totally agree and can see of how in fact -like many other ‘yahoogroups’ I have seen & joined- that it would greatly, immensely HELP so much for each of us here, and perhaps, start really changing/transforming each of us (that wise wisdom/saying that “Change has to come from INSIDE first, then OUTSIDE” feels very very true!)
just let me know how would it go, or what do u think.
I’m 100% supporting this idea.
Thank you very much actually for bringing up this wonderful idea.
it has really touched my hearts to see there’s still a GOOD person that do CARE, even we’re all totally ‘strangers’ (ie: don’t know each other IRL/in real life!) , such is the *beauty* of Internet, isn’t it!
I’m not from the UK either, but if we do some sort of other group thing then I’d like to be involved too.
Hi, thanks for responding guys.
Yeah, I think a yahoo group might be a good idea, I’ll get working on that and post back here when I’m done. What I don’t want to happen though is that we simply just transfer this site over to yahoo, I don’t see the point. Seen as a couple of you guys are in the US, this is what I’m thinking;
My main aim is to get you all off the computers and actually meet up or at least call each other up. I do agree that the internet is a wonderful thing, but you can’t beat actual friendships and actual conversation – words on a computer can lack emotion and also require no emotion in return. So I want to get a bunch of names etc and then arrange a meeting, just casual, not like an AA meeting or anything 🙂
I know it’s gonna be difficult because when a person is so depressed that they are suicidal, they have lost hope and will no doubt assume that this would be pointless – even if they did have the energy to participate. But I feel strongly that if that one last effort was to be made, it would be a good thing because either, you would find it to be the best thing you ever did, or completely rubbish and then you can go and kill yourself at least knowing you gave life that one last shot? Or maybe you don’t get anything from it, and so nothing has changed in your life. Big deal.
So I am concentrating on people meeting up – even if I only manage to get 2 or 3 people together, if it improves even one life then that’s a marvelous result. But I will set up a yahoo group thing as long as if there is someone else on there close by to you, you MUST make an effort to talk to them or meet them – you have to be a willing participant in this or don’t join, please.
Stanford.
My flat mate is on here also, she’s in London and she is definitely interested in this idea, I’m trying to get her to organise it but she seems a bit reluctant, so maybe I will continue to get the ball rolling and hopefully she will take over.
I think my last post is under her name as she was logged in before me, but I can’t see it so I’m confused! Haha!
But anyway, you can post back to either myself or her. My name is Stanford.
Hi, just wondering if there’s a continuation to this wonderful ‘join group’ idea?
Like I’ve said before, I see so many similarities, treads, characters, and good personality, that I would really hate if before any of you do & commit suicide, we don’t at least try this ‘group’ idea, and be a source of support & strength to/with each other!
There’s a good reason in the saying that “a stick can be easily broken,
but a group of sticks tied together will be hard to break”.
No human can live in solitary, nobody can stand the feeling of loneliness
and I would really hate if good people like you never KNOW the feeling of belongingness,..the feeling that you’re Accepted, and that you’re definitely not alone. scattered? yes, big probability (that’s why we’re all somehow got into here in this website). but alone in this world? no!
And who knows…one good/great thing might lead to another thing
just like many things in life, things are often UNPREDICTABLE!
the most important thing is to give this ‘join group’ a TRY (a Real TRY) first, before really totally give up on this life, and went into different plane/level of ‘Truth’ (as one poster here said elegantly).
Then maybe…living in this ONCE-only ‘physical’ Earthly life might not be so bad as you all this time thought…it might even got better! and having more ‘clues’ and ‘signs’ as what to do next (bigger things),…and more and more things we never thought before of capable doing, and the beautiful results of it!
It’s worth a try,..isn’t it, guys?
Please let me know the latest news about this ‘group idea’.
And even if there’s noone wants to continue or do, I’ll be so willing to be the one who’ll create the ‘group mailing list’ for all of us here!
Just….let me know!
