I'm very depressed and often on the edge of ending my life. I've never tried to, but all it takes is one attempt to end it all. There are times when I'm just about to kill myself. All it would take for me to go over the edge and end my life is three letters: kys. Something as simple as that could help me make up my mind to end my life. This is not a case of having thin skin. Sometimes people are in a vulnerable condition. They aren't thinking rationally, they're too deep in depression to make the right choices.
All I ask is that you think about what you say before you say it online. You never know who's on the other end of the screen. You can joke around with friends, but you may be giving someone the final encouragement they need to end it all.

Edited by gsRuckus: 7/5/2016 5:19:43 AMWhy do some of you egdelords think its so cool to tell someone to kill themself? You never know who you're talking to when you tell some random person to kill themself. I've seen countless people tell someone they don't even know "kys". Most people justify it by saying "it's just a joke", or "they won't do it". If you're one of those people, then take a look at all of these. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1088173/Teenager-commits-suicide-live-online-1-500-people-watch-video-stream.html http://fox6now.com/2015/05/28/teen-kills-himself-after-being-bullied-heartbroken-mother-pleads-dont-let-anyone-be-treated-like-my-son/ http://www.mediaite.com/online/teen-charged-with-manslaughter-for-encouraging-friend-to-commit-suicide/ https://www.theguardian.com/society/2013/aug/06/hannah-smith-online-bullying http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2246896/Jessica-Laney-16-committed-suicide-internet-trolls-taunted-told-kill-herself.htm http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3043651/Parents-teen-committed-suicide-suffering-vicious-bullying-Facebook-demand-greater-protection-kids-online.html http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/419885/Teenage-girl-kills-herself-after-internet-trolls-tell-her-to-drink-bleach If you don't want to read these are all stories of people who have killed themself after being bullied or being told to do it online or through text.
