"Been through bad time lately with suffering with this. Dark thoughts as well. I know some posters on here suffer with this. Anyone come through the other side of this shit?

"A number of posters have been yellow carded and told to stay off this thread unless they have anything constructive to add.This is a thread that has been very useful to so many, for any other posters with scores to settle, argue on another thread. This thread is sacrosant.Thank you"

I have good days and bad days Norman. Helps to talk about it. When you’re ready to admit you’ve got some problems then people will be happy to help. Probably start with your alcoholism and work from there. Good luck.

Diet & exercise and sleep helps hugely and cutting out bad habits. When the Black Dog chases you kick it in the bollocks!

"One of the hardest things to go through when someone close to you has killed themselves is the morbid fascination and excitement that some people have with it. People thinking they had the right to turn up at the inquest to see what happened, like it was an episode of eastenders. That ""jumper"", or the person hosed out of the front of a Eurostar train was someone's son, daughter, mother, father."

"I used to know a fella years ago who was a tube driver. He said if you hit a jumper you got six months paid leave, if you hit a total of three in your career then you got to retire on full pension"

Not 100% sure that this is really the right thread to discuss the right and wrong way to kill yourselves...

"My friend used to work on the underground as well. Seems the platforms are constantly monitored for anything out of the norm, and they kill the power of it looks like someone is going onto the track. Told me he once arrested a post op transsexual who wanted to die because he couldn't have his dick back. He regularly had to attend scenes where there was blood and brain spattered on the wall. Personally, I think it's a highly inconsiderate way to kill yourself. Drivers aren't soldiers and aren't paid to kill people and get a medal."

"I have seen the results of a few jumpers and an accidents. The railway and cutting tunnels as the 2 most dangerous environments to work and play in What people do not realize is when you are standing on of next to the track you cannot hear a train coming . If you have your back to on the track itself it will be the last thing you here At 125mph a body explodes . The procedure for trains and workers on track is the train with blow the horn and you acknowledge by raising your right, basically to let the driver know you are aware there is a train coming your way I was walking through Harrow and Wealdstone station and the way the driver blew the horn I knew there was something wrong and I walked back and there was a leg in what we call the 4 foot , the middle of the track. I was working in Kings Cross platform area and they took all the passengers off of the platform and brought a train in and there a hole where a head hit the canopy ribbons of light blue cloth in the cloth and a red mist down the side of the engine"

"On balance, that would seem the better way to go!"

[Cheezey Bell-End]

"He told me one about someone who got hit square on by a Eurostar at speed. Seems they have a nose cone that opens up to reveal a coupling unit for when they join trains together. Seems the forces involved drove the body, in liquefied form, into the nose cone. So they basically opened it up and hosed him out."

[Bungo]

"Cheezey Bell-End 10:59 Sat Feb 1 When my wife worked in various London A&Es, the paramedics she knew had many stories about jumpers. Apparently it is not uncommon to still be alive when run over by a train. The weight seals the arteries and stops a lot of bleeding. It's when they back the train off that they quickly bleed to death."

[Cheezey Bell-End]

"I have a good friend who is an inspector in the British Transport Police. He doesn't talk about his work much unless you ask, but once he gets started, has many interesting anecdotes. He currently heads a team dedicated to suicide prevention. In purely financial terms, each suicide on the railway costs the rail company about £1.5m, whereas this team of 8 costs £600k a year, so even stopping 1 jumper is worth it to the company. It seems that when someone is killed by a train, the ambulance people and fire brigade don't want to get involved, so his team have to retrieve the remains. Sometimes the body is intact, sometimes it is disintegrated and scattered over miles of track, but other times it gets wrapped around the wheels and he has to get in there with a bone saw to cut up the body, photographing every step for the benefit of the coroner. Occasionally, one will turn out to still be alive up there. He said the worst ones are when the person's family go to the station to wait for news. Seems to prefer that to getting back into IT though."

"A think a lot of us have a condition called disthymia. It's a constant low level depression that becomes your normal state, but can turn into something more serious depending on circumstances."
