M1 shut between J25 and 26 both ways

Suicide from a bridge ive heard near Trowell services. Awful.

Roads here are snarled up horrendously as diversion is past my bloody house Im stuck at work! Bugger!

Anyone pointing out its Christmas jumper day is sick and should be banned!

 

what, a Christmas jumper day?

 

Sad face icon.

What a world we live in where people feel the only way out is to do this. How much of a better place would it be if we spent one years worth of the money wasted on chemical weapons and nuclear bombs on mental Heath instead.

Don't you just wish you could have put an arm round this poor person. I know I do.

 

Theres more to come on this as its being linked to a murder locally. Im guessing you might not want to hug this one but I agree with your sentiment

 

sadly it seems to happen a lot around Christmas and New Year, probably loneliness and dark days and watching folks all around apparently enjoying the festivities.

a while back on a day just after Christmas, I was on a train going through New Cross station and the train came to a quick stop as someone had jumped off the bridge in front of the train. not nice.

 

I know ive made light of it but i dont really think that way. I agree, it would be awful. Ive been a split second away from something similar heppening to me, it happened to my mate instead. Complete head screw! Took him a long time to come around from it! It was an accident too and not deliberate. To be honest ive been first on scene at a nasty one and it didnt do me a great deal of good!

 

I'm sure they would feel the same way when they are of sound mind. But I'm afraid once the wiring gets screwed up all rational thought goes out the window. To do that to yourself and your family I can only imagine you must be completely consumed by those irrational thoughts above all else.

On many levels you have protections built in to stop you injuring yourself. It's why we have a flight response. Why we feel pain, why we develop fears of stuff like heights etc. How powerful must the self harm thoughts be to over ride all this subconscious protection.

 

You can't look at the mind of a depressed or any mentally ill person with the same logic as you apply to normal life

When the black dog had me pinned down I truly believed my family would be better off without me

 

Milton Keynes station seems to be the station of choice on the west coast mainline, the train goes full tilt right next to the platform there.

I was on one a year or two ago, you felt a thud, then the plastic bit on the front of the Pendalino went under the wheels.

Felt sorry for the driver, we were put on a following train and 'enjoyed' the braying of 1st class passengers as some people had to sit there in overflow. Some people are arseholes.

 

Us humans are funny creatures for sure
I dislike people who moan that someone's disfortune is hampering there normality

 

Brother's first wife & mother to his three kids hanged herself in his garage. Tbh she had been ill for a time, this wasn't her first attempt & there had been 'practice runs'. She managed it almost 2 years to the day since her own brother had done exactly the same thing.
Good mate gassed himself in his car, hosepipe in mouth, at a place called Anglezark (think that's how you spell it). He was 'born again christian' & had been complaining of seeing evil things. Strange!
Another good mate hanged himself from a rafter in the attic, was a saturday after we had played footy, been out all day, left his mrs in the pub, went home hanged himself, she found him when she got in hanging from the loft hatch. Left a 12 yo lad behind, totally senseless & a real shame when people are ill this way

 

Blimey

 

Yeah I know! There's a couple more I know of. When I was 15/16/17 (can't remember exactly) there was a few of us knocked about together & one of the lads who was sort of on the fringe of this group, Scott McGuiness was his name, threw himself off Preston bus station. It used to be famous for it. Lastly when I worked in a high rise office building (about 15 years ago), there was a girl in my team & she looked out of the window of the 12th floor & said "flipping heck" that looks like our Kenny just as her cousin Kenny leapt to his death again from Preston bus station. Apparently he had been atop the bus station for quite a while contemplating it & just at the moment she looked over, he jumped.

 

Seemed wrong to like your post
But I wanted to for sharing it

There's only one type of person that's better at hiding or changing emotions
Than a depressed person
That's a dependant drug addict
