10 Online Games that Promotes Self Harm and Suicide! WTF!

It is absolutely disgusting and vile to see that most people use their talents in software developing and game creations to make very stimulative games that would promote self harm literally :(
However, on a further note people say that it is a reliable way to not act on the urges or emotions in real life situations.

But does it PROMOTE or actually REDUCE such urges? That requires experimentation. In my personal opinion such self harming urges and suicidal urges are unbelievably complex and it is hard to say that playing these games would undeniably cause a person to reduce such urges or increase it for that matter.

WARNING THIS POST INCLUDES GRAPHICAL CONTENT!


Please consider if you are doing self harm or contemplating suicide,This is not the correct thing to do and get some professional help or talk to someone who would listen to you. You sure can do anything with your life but displacing your frustration of the world by cutting yourself and being in pain would just create another cycle of frustration . Instead just focus on your frustrations on hobbies and other productive activities. 

And now on to the post.


Play Self-Harm - GAME GAPE


 This game requires the player to press space repeatedly so a sharp blade razor could be driven into the arm of a person. Truly horrifying. And depending on how much you could press you will be given points and the end result would tell you how much emo you are .... :/





Self Portrait Cartoon - Flash Games Player 


I don't understand why this thing is categorised under games in the first place. It provides a very sleek animation on how an Artist would kill himself using a gun. Watching this animation over and over again would cause a suicidal person to kill them selves or what else? 




Suicide -  Dan Doyle III

This is basically like a text adventure that you could type out the responses that would make the game progress. I did not make it to the end of the game and I was baffled by it as you can see from the gif below. 


Hang Yourself Simulator - UNKNOWN



I don't know who would made the game. Apparently all you have to do is to press "e" to hang yourself. This is a small .gif I made of OIHighRollerIO playing this particular game.  Apparently if you die you become game over also. 





Slit your Wrists - Newsgrounds


This is a game where you open up your hands to either bandages or blades that keeps coming at you. You have a meter below which fills up if you have a lot of points, which I assume getting cut by blades would give your more points. If you loose like I did you would probably be classified as a *insert p word here* by the game.



Fataltotheflesh.com  


This site seems really popular among the people who would like to self arm. I found various forum threads and posts about this site. 

How people promote such things is truly disturbing :(

So I went to the URL of the site and all I saw was just a blank web page. I was confused so I tried watching a video and it suddenly dawned to me what to do.




Kill Yourself - Text Adventure


Another visual novel game related to committing suicide. It looks harmless and much ridiculous compared to other games I have seen, but the game developer does say that
there are nine unique endings to kill yourself. I laughed at the point where the game programmer classified himself as a douche.



Simulation of Suicide - So Gore


This game just has one option of killing yourself and that is using a gun. It is accompanied by some cool country music which I don't get the point of.



Pocket Emo


This could be one of the worst things I have ever seen. The description of the game itself just made me shudder. Basically you have all the options in here to make your own pocket cute little emo boy which you can feed it, make it write diary entries and of course cut itself.

I Will Die


Basically this online game starts off with a intro that involves a man and a woman in a romantic relationship but the woman gets killed and the man wants to kill himself and you help him do it. It is like a small platform game where traps are there and it has a lot of levels.



Conclusion
It is unknown on what happens to people who play such games. It could be that sometimes they might get motivated and other times their urges to self-harm might get reduced due to the stimulation via these games. Whatever the context or the cause might be- it is important to get psychological help before attempting anything. In my personal opinion just as how social comparison is ineffective against people who has intellectual disabilities to promote self-esteem, there could be a chance that such games are ineffective against people with suicidal and self-harming tendencies for others of course it could be effective.
