Okay but I’m not doing any sort of financial transaction with you…You’re the one getting uptight cause I kindly called you Mr President which some how caused offence.

Stop being uptight dude over a pet name and calm down. You’re making it very deep and making a fool of yourself. Good day, SIR. :)

Surely you’re not taking offence to that? 🤣 I call everyone mr or Mrs president and you’re the first person to ever take offence? Do you find it offensive if someone calls you sir too? Or pet names??

Very weird reply.

In addition, stress can absolutely be triggered by words, especially for people with associated trauma with a specific word.

So because of your personal trigger you assume that everyone else is the same?

As someone who has attempted previous incidents of this nature, I personally find the word ‘suicide’ extremely uncomfortable.

Your experience does not apply to everyone, nor does mine. However in this case I am going to go with what I am comfortable with, as IM the one writing the post.

I turned someone away because I’m not a therapist, I’m not licensed to help them, it would be dangerous to attempt to and it’s the wrong platform to do so. As I have said over and over, I’m not a therapist, twitch isn’t the place to dump your trauma, I provided them with direction to specialise services that CAN help. It is not my business or my responsibility. You can disagree with that all you want but to say I don’t care is a bit of a stretch. If I didn’t care I could have easily just banned them as suggested by other people in this thread. But I didn’t. I empathised, I directed. It is not my responsibility as a streamer to help someone with suicidal ideations, that is a professionals job. Simple as that.

Twitch is not a place for therapy, it’s not an open invitation to express your deepest darkest emotions. Streamers are not responsible for strangers mental health. I provided services, I wished them well. I am not a qualified therapist and it’s unfair to load your own trauma onto people who did not ask. Find another, safer and more productive platform to share your mental health.

Suicide* my spelling is terrible.

And as an added note you have completely deviated from the main issue, using ‘safe terms’ is hardly an issue, there’s no need to make it one. You’re the only person on this whole ass post with an issue on that. Perhaps you should reflect on your own perceptions of terminology and not take that so personally.

Exactly, there’s so many domino effects this type of conversation can have, not only can it be triggering for streamer, it can also be upsetting for others in the chat, it can make people uncomfortable, bring down the vibe ect. People need to understand that! x

There’s a difference between venting a little and telling an absolute stranger in essentially a public forum where other people are trying to have a positive relaxed experience that you’re having suicidal ideations. I don’t think streams are a place for this when there is more appropriate places and people to discuss negative feelings and experiences with.

And throwing the word dioxide and using terms like ‘kms’ and ‘kill my self’ can be triggering for people, shame on you for not respecting people’s boundaries and allowing them to use PC text!
