I wonder how beautiful life must be when you don't have trust issues, depression, mood swings, overthinking, paranoia, anxiety, detachment, isolation or fear

"HOW DO YOU GET RID OF A NEED?"

(1-17-2025)

a specific type of suicidism that i haven’t seen anyone talk about yet is that suicidal people are unable to talk about their experiences, unfiltered, in mainstream online spaces. you look up the word “suicide” on any social media and you get a pseudo-nice message about how much the corporation really truly cares about you :(🫶

a few examples:

what this really is (allegedly) is a signal of not being liable should you die. connection, community, etc. for suicidal people doesn’t matter because suicide is a no-no word for corporations. so instead of being able to talk about your experiences as someone who lives with suicidality, you’re either forced to use advertiser-friendly toddlerspeak (e.g. “sewer slide”) costing you your dignity, or you get hotlines shoveled your way - hotlines that can call the police on you if you are too candid about your suicidal experience.

TL;DR: being a suicidal person violates community guidelines.

[Pt: What to keep in a first-aid kit]

You can find most of these things at a pharmacy, if not they are easy to find online. Some of these times you can make cheaper substitutes for, here's how.

General:

[Pt: General: ]

Something clean and dry to keep everything in (bag, box, etc.)

Scissors (for gauze, medical tape, etc.)

Hand sanitiser (to clean your hands, not wounds)

Isopropyl alcohol (to clean tools, not wounds)

Pain killers, some pain killers can make bleeding worse. Acetaminophen/Tylenol does not.

Petroleum jelly/Vaseline

Medical tape (latex free tape can be a good alternative if you have an adhesive allergy)

Saline
