Then, she posted to a forum saying:
[quote=Chloe]I've failed.
I've failed at everything I love, I've even failed at saving myself countless times, all because I'm a coward.
If it wasn't enough, everyone was quick to tell me that I had failed, as if no one else had bothered to tell me. Constantly barraging me over and over and over, as if I needed to know.
Just keep telling yourself that I'm just a drama queen, and I don't know what pain is. It hurts so much, and I'm tired of feeling it. I'm tired of being afraid of everything, I'm tired of wearing this mask that kills me everytime I take it off.
Everyone has to be so sure of themselves, and would rather subject someone to a lifetime of pain than to bend just a little bit.
I don't care anymore.
To the people I love and/or care about the most, Morgan, Mike, Katie, Jesse, Kathy, Jessica, Eddie, Indy, Kyle, Santino, Keone, Isaiah, Amari, Ayana, Jaylin, Elija, Jutta, Andrew, Dawn, AJ, Jake and Connor, it's not your fault, and you did what you could. I also want to say I love and care about you, my family. I also wanted to thank everyone who did try to support me over the past few months while recognizing that this is a private matter, and especially thank you to the ones who did not choose to help but still realized it was a private matter and didn't harass me or anyone else who chose to help.
And I wanted to say fuck you to my family, everyone who felt the need to say something nasty to me in this last month, all those people who are so sure they know what's going on with me, those doctors who never took the time to properly work with me, the ones who antagonized me for my situation, and those who just turned me away. I could only hope you feel bad for putting me in this situation, but odds are you won't learn a damn thing from any of this, and continue to hurt more and more people with your ignorance. You can't hurt me anymore.
I don't know what else to write. I'm tired of talking.
If you're sick and want to watch my final moments,

This is very tragic -- we need to get the word out about this to prevent anything like this ever happening again.
EDIT: She's still alive: [url]http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=57538324&postcount=303[/url]
Here's to hoping the best for her.
EDIT 2: It's been revealed her story about getting shrapnel stuck in her throat is fake, but she was still very depressed.

Well...fuck.
I wish I had something more to say than that, but I just can't think of anything.

Why do people have to be so disgusting to eachother?
I'm literally without words, this too fucking much.

Scam or not being that assholish to someone ain't cool.
Wait so why did she commit suicide? Were the metal fragments inevitably going to kill her anyway?
I don't understand why people would say she failed because she was in a car crash.
That's horrible, rest in peace.
Thanks people at Indiegogo, because of you, someone died. Thanks.
I'm not sure how to interpret this whole situation...

she couldn't pay for the surgery because indiegogo fucked her over. being faced with a slow and painful death and collapsing under the emotional weight of unfounded rumors and abuse, she chose to end her life.
[QUOTE=The Rifleman;40622767]That's horrible, rest in peace.[/QUOTE]
Agreed, Indiegogo fucked up on this one bad and not only that. The people commenting on that shit is just ridiculous, how can people be such dicks?

Great site, I love the part where it says:
[quote]Anyone who doesn't see her suicide as anything other than a selfish act is an idiot. Got problems? Yeah, well so do I and everyone else, but if you have kids to raise, you raise them. FUCK YOU. Tough it out, do your job and suck it up.[/quote]
Just kidding. The person who wrote that is a fucking moron.

Well that's terrible.
Was she actually a transvestite? I just can't fathom why her "last words" would be fuck you to her family, unless it was because they hated her for it.
Tragic :(

I feel like raiding these people. But, as mad as I may be, that's bannable here. So I can't. It's a shame assholes like these still exist to this day.

While i understand where he's coming from, people with severe depression, issues, etc dont have the same way of thinking as a normally minded person would have, thus pushing them past the limits to commit these suicides. You can't tell someone who's severely depressed: "SUCK IT UP BITCH". It doesn't work like that.
do we have confirmation that she's dead?
Rest in Peace....
[QUOTE=Occlusion;40622761]Wait so why did she commit suicide? Were the metal fragments inevitably going to kill her anyway?

She committed suicide because some guys from Reddit started doubting her for no reason at all other than to sound smart, and then a bunch of people listened to the people from Reddit. Eventually, they started flaming on her, and Indiegogo shut her campaign down. After that, the word got out that she was transgender and then it spiraled out of control.
Not to mention, her family abused her and said that they hope she dies from this accident.
Did she actually go through with it? cause I don't particularly want to click on the twitch stream and I'm really hoping she didn't.

Tragic :([/QUOTE]
As far as I know she had metal fragments in her body from a car crash. Think Iron Man but shittier.

I'd like to see you get thrown away by your own family and having to deal with shit like the above comments while you're trying to get money to prevent yourself from dying.
Please understand what depression actually does to a person, or, you know, try to have a little empathy before posting stupid shit. Thanks.
Did she actually do it on a live stream? This shit is terrible :\

suicide is a selfish act, and she publicized the fuck out of it. congrats, she gets what she wants. people are talking about her suicide, and she will be forever cemented as the "person who proved what a terrible site indiegogo is, oh the humanity!"
just kidding, everybody will forget

You're absolutely right. They don't have the same way of thinking. That's why it's absurd to blame anybody else. It's like a seed of doubt that dwells in your mind that prevents rational action. Depression brings people to absurd lows. While it sucks, and the abuse didn't help, I don't think I can blame Indiegogo for her suicide.

the twitch stream got taken down for ToS violation.
