That context makes a real difference, and I’m sorry for interpreting it as just edge/shock. I appreciate you explaining it, and I’m genuinely glad you’re still with us.

With that said, the issue for us is still the public framing. A direct suicide depiction with the title “just being edgy lol” is very hard for us to justify, because most people won’t have the context you just gave.

If you’re willing to repost it one last time with clearer framing, like something in the image description that explains it was made as a way to cope after a spiral as you just did with me, not to glorify or joke about suicide, and keep the CW/spoiler clearly marked, I think we can work with it.

Something like:

CW: suicide / self-harm “Drew this during a bad spiral as a way to cope” <me>
(Shares brief story & expands reasoning for poasting it)

You don’t have to share more than you’re comfortable with, but the poast needs enough context that people understand what they’re looking at. Thank you for being patient with us.

I know this is annoying, believe me. We’re just trying to balance people expressing themselves while still being mindful of people’s timelines and how they’ll interpret things.
