The new scene, which is in the process of being changed on the Netflix site, now features Hannah looking at herself in the mirror before cutting to see her parents' reaction to her suicide. There is no longer any depiction of the character taking a razor blade to her wrists and the immediate aftermath. Sources say Netflix will also monitor and issue take-downs for any pirated clips that feature the original, unedited scene.

The move has drawn the support from the American Association of Suicidology, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, American School Counselor Association, Dr. Helen Hsu from Stanford, advocacy group Mental Health America, the Trevor Project and Dr. Rebecca Hedrick from Cedars-Sinai.

Mixed feeeeeeelingssss

They should have never made a season 2

This really needed to be explained? People are so stupid not to have understood it without this being spelled out.

After reading what the original scene was (speaking as a retired teen therapist) I’m grateful it’s gone.

Streisand effect incoming

I’m sooooo tired of hearing the same ghost analyze how she was bullied in high school and managed to kill herself out of spite, that was good off of one season. Every millennial is watching Euphoria now, we good

No longer available on Netflix and so now unavailable anywhere.

welp, guess I'll just torrent the show

Netflix is admitting that this did lead to rise in teen suicides

Wow! It’s not enough to be told what you can’t say these days. Now you’re told what you can’t see. Bogus!

What? It’s not like people had to watch...

Netflix weak

Weak.

That’s so STUPID!!!!

Oddly enough for a Birdbox-esque phenomenon...

İntiharı sana bunları anlatmam 😂😂başıma ne gelir ,seninde yazdığın gibi beni öldürmeyen güçlendirir 😂😂

AVidyardi ?

How long after? Yeah, this’ll help new viewers. WTF.

This was over 2 years ago, why now?

How about just take this fucking waste of a show off the air?

Scene was meant to open niggas eyes
