Description
i dont support it because i almost tried it! i had inspiration for this stamp from this news article here news.deviantart.com/article/57...read it! it's very powerful, and very moving! it had me in tears by the time i had finished commenting on it! and the comment you can find right here and all the replies to it. comments.deviantart.com/2/5787...
let me know if you use it! so i can see it in action!!
template from $zilla774
Oh my god. you people realize that the artist doesn't get to choose what get's a DD. i still have no clue what so ever of why this was chosen as a DD so stop discussing it here. if you dont like it. tell the proper people you can find it here FAQ #873: What do I do when I disapprove of a Daily Deviation feature?
and as for "lumping cutting and suicide together", what can i say... i'm sorry. i'm not going to change it now, and at the time it was what was going through my mind.
for the people who are saying stuff about how cutting can be good. well. i wont lie, my best friend used to cut. she did it to relieve stress. but from my personal standpoint, i know it isn't healthy, and it is something i am very glad i never did.
and if i was refering to assisted suicide i would have put that so please stop using that as an argument as well. i was talking about self suicide. like slitting your wrists or hanging yourself and so on.
any other haters out there... well i'm sorry you feel that way i am not here to change your feelings however.
******UPDATE******
I just uploaded an apology deviation. I feel it's necessary

Having struggled with Asperger's Syndrome growing up, I can fully relate to that stamp. Lots of luck to you!

i am so sorry.. i have absolutely no clue what that is. can you enlighten me?
and thanks... surprisingly people are really reading into this too much

I do not wish people to commit suicide, either... but what are you going to do? It's kind of a futile statement... but a statement, nonetheless. Such is the way of stamps.

pretty much all stamps are futile. and surprisingly people are really reading into this too much

so true. i don't support it too. but who would support it?

surprisingly there are a lot of people who support assisted suicide!

... Overall, I don't like suicide. (It scares me a bit) But when you're suffering depression, anything is possible just to end the pain... I used to cut myself trying to get myself to bleed and tried to overdose myself with my everyday medicine. It pains me to bring it up, but if we want to prevent suicide we sometimes have to speak up.

i hope you aren't still cutting yourself. or trying to OD. Please dont... trust me it's not worth it! just think of your family and friends who would be questioning why you did it. and will probably be so distraught that they might follow in your footsteps... is that what you would want. this is one of the things that helped me not kill myself

Thanks. I don't do that anymore. (At least, not often)

welll.. lets try to reduce it to once in a blue moon, and work from there!

I don't believe anyone "supports" those things per se... Unless English is not your native language and "support" is a false cognate (e.g. "soportar" in Spanish).
"So don't even think about it" is also worded very poorly. It comes off as offensive, as callous rather than concerned. Suicide and self-harm are things that one cannot be intolerant about, because it's the very rejection these people feel that influences them to hurt themselves.
This stamp accomplishes exactly the opposite of what you intended.

surprisingly there are people who have said here that they support assisted suicide.
and what exactly did i intend? i dont believe i wrote exactly what i intended anywhere. i really wish people would stop being so foolish.
i have been suicidal. and i realize that if somebody had said to me "dont even think about it" i would have shrugged them off. but i wouldn't have been insulted. when you are on that path you dont really care what people think or say unless it's something that may help.
for me at least...i had already felt rejected. so this would have been nothing.
i was doing this lightly... not in a serious way. yes i have been suicidal and i dont want anyone to ever have to feel the same way.
i am not the one reading too much into a stamp. everyone else is reading into a stamp too much... enough where they get offended

I just loved your comment 
PS: in spanish "Support" can also be "apoyar"

FAQ #873: What do I do when I disapprove of a Daily Deviation feature?

No problem, nothing to apologize for :>

This comment is a much more eloquent version of what I was thinking.
The line "so don't even think about it" is what got me, otherwise I'm pretty indifferent to the stamp. When you word it like that, it sounds like you're trying to control others/like you think you have a right to tell people you don't even know what to do with their lives.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
well... that was not my intention!
please dont do it. it isn't worth it at all. just think about your friends and family. would you want them to kill themselves because you did?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well that was a tad corny
I was just kidding!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it is corny... but it happens. when i was sucidal... i looked up things because was asking myself why am i thinking this. and the survivors rather often wind up following in the victims footsteps.
not much of a kidding topic in this case.

You are a victim of suicidal thoughts?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
sadly yes. i dont know if you did or not... but if you read the article i linked in the artist comments, i posted a comment on the article, that is directly related to the article... anyway... my comment on the article is also linked in the artists comments.
but anyway. yeah i am a victim as you put it. and the only reason i am not dead right now is because of my best friend in the world
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow that friend is a keeper then.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh yeah! that is for sure

oh the 
Thanks!

agreed.
My mom's cousin did.
And my friend attempted. She will NEVER do it ever again. It freaked her out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i hope you dont attempt it from this. and i hope you were there for your friend to help her figure things out
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I SURE WON'T!
I'm too happy for that. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
good! i'm glad you wont!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Im glad you made this stamp. No one should support it. My dad says that if people want to kill themselves the government should just let them. But it's not there fault if they have depression and other mental illnesses ither.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
thanks!
and it isn't their fault. and i know this from experince... i didn't choose to be Transsexual
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't think it's their fault ither.
You are who you are thats just the way it is wheather your straight bi jewish christian afriacan japanese and we should all just accept each other.
I have depression And 4 different types of anxiety.
Including social phobia. I didn't choose to be afraid of asking the the burger king man for ketchup. I just am.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
but not everyone does accept each other.
i have depression too... it sucks don't it.
social phobia is new to me... i understand what it is... but i haven't heard of it before now
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Im afraid of people. Like terified. Im afraid to even look them in the eyes. It makes it hard to work or go to school. If I have questions I can't ask it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well... dear... i understand the feeling.. not perfectly... but i understand it somewhat.
personally i am extremly shy and i dont even like to talk with people. it took me three months to even talk with my now best friend.
you just have to find one person you can talk with easily and work your way very slowly from there
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I hope this doesn't sound like "drama-ie" cause it'snot my intent.
I physically when Im afraid can not talk to people. Im so scared I get jutterie. Some peopleareafraid ofheights and wontgo on the second floor or fly. Others areafraid ofspiders they run out of the room.
Mines people.
the only way I can really getmy gaurd loweris talking through the internet first. I knwo theres alot of problems and Im not saying mines any worse then the rest. I tend to get alot of " Well , it's different then spiders and and heights it's people so get over it."
I wish it were that easy to get over it. But i have a doctor and sometimes I think that makes it worse.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i wont lie... people scare the shit out of me. it's not a crippling fear. but i hate being around a group of people larger then 5. and even for that. i gotta know at least 2 of them well.
what's funny is i also have a small fear of spiders... as well as a small fear of heights.
so dont worry, mate, you are not alone in this world.
oh and FYI the internet is full of drama so no worries for that either
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Like I said I is not trying to be dramatic but I can't figute out a way to explain it that doesnt sound dramatic.';
:sweat drop
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
as i said... it's all good! dont worry about dramatic... i'm used to it.
no worries
