I might be late, but there was already a suicide website before Sanctioned Suicide. Does no one on this thread remember
alt.suicide.holiday? I remember perusing it when I was a teen back in the mid 2000s. Never posted on it, but I found it really helpful during my suicidal phase. There was also a chatroom and archives, that had way more detailed posts of suicide methods and the consequences. It borrowed heavily from Geo Stone (who wrote the book Suicide Methods and Consequences). It was way more focused than this site, and let you know realistically what would happen if your suicide is not successful. Such as lethal doses of various medications and poisons, asphyxiation, hanging, gunshots, jumping, slit wrists, etc.
I found it sad that it became defunct, because unlike Sanctioned Suicide, the posters were way more informed and way more open. I'm guessing more adults were posting than teenagers at it's height.
I'm not against suicide, though I think all options should be exhausted before one decides that suicide is the way to go, unless you're facing an incurable and painful terminal illness.
But I believe it is healthy, and can sometimes be helpful, for those who are suicidal to have a place to talk about it, honestly, and not "TRIGGER WARNING PLEASE!!". You realize you aren't the only one who's having these thoughts. You realize that you're not alone. And you also realize, "Oh god, is that how I sound when I'm whining about my problems and talking about killing myself?"
You also heard from people that had a botched suicide attempt, and realize they can never reverse what happened to them because of what they did. People who fucked up their liver with their drug overdose. People who are brain damaged. People who can't use a hand because they severed too many tendons. You get the picture.
And I have no goddamn idea what this fag fight is about, but merry fucking christmas. It's Jesus's birthday! So get off your heathen faggot ass and fucking celebrate!
