Trying to find a potential suicide victim

Jul 20, 2011 21:39

(Off-topic, but I got in touch with the mods to make sure it was okay.)

Last night, favoritezipper posted a goodbye note on her Tumblr reading "I believe I’ll be closing down this blog, not least because I’ve taken a rather high dosage of sleeping pills and chased it with a slug of vermouth. Thank you, everybody, for everything you’ve done for me ( Read more... )

Do you know if she is on LJ, too? If so, I'm sure we'd all be happy to get in touch with any of her LJ friends we might know to try and get more info for you.

I know someone who's friends with her on DW. I'll ask them.

So happy to hear she's still with us! (And in awe of some of the sleuthing below.) Hopefully with the help of great friends like you she'll be able to get through this and find a happier sort of peace.

if it's helpful, i just did some google sleuthing and found her lj/dw names...

on lj: pgmoonshine
on dw: bigbrasskey

i also found her e-mail address, if that helps?

evewithanapple July 21 2011, 02:07:15 UTC

I've linked both LJ and DW on Tumblr- someone might recognize the name. Thank you.

Did a missing person alert on Tumblr as I dont know what else to do to help, but I hope she is okay.

We've had a few updates going around- I think this is the most recently updated one. But every signal boost helps.

ladypolitik July 21 2011, 02:54:33 UTC

Okay, I added your link into my post; thanks for this.

Thanks for that post! I hope someone gets through to her in time!

I hope everything turns out all right. Let me know if I can do anything.

I just e-mailed abuse@dreamwidth.org about the situation -- hopefully they'll do something about it. (It might not be the most appropriate avenue, but it was either that or open a public support request. I can't say I'm all that thrilled with some popular sites' policies regarding suicide threats, TBH.)

evewithanapple July 21 2011, 02:49:04 UTC

PUBLIC? Good lord. I know another friend of hers' also contacted one of the DW admins, but I don't know if she's responded yet.
