Consensus on train suicide?

[tryme]

People flip flop between saying it's a 99% sure method to saying it's a complete gamble. As far as I know it's not even listed in PPeH. This is the only realistic method available to me unless u want me to jump from 4th floor or try drowning without any way to ensure I will resurface. So, anyone on this forum did it? I know several ppl in my city did do it recently and if it worked for them then it has to have some merit.

Unethical, possibly painful. Traumatizing a driver and potential EMS is fucked up, that and the passengers might see your corpse, resulting in more trauma.

I dont care. I just want to die. I cannot gain access to firearms (otherwise I would have done long time ago) there are no high building is my city. Overdosing, I dont trust it, it is dangerous, you end up vegetable. If I lay on train track middle of forest, my neck on it. When it is night. I dont traumatize anyone.

Yet you do, to the train driver, they will see it through their headlights and even though train drivers here have been told to "close your eyes and cover your ears while screaming" if a train CTB happens, it still fucks them up. But yeah its up to you, but I'll still say its unethical.

What else can I do? I know overdosing on shit wont work on me. I wish someone would give me a gun, so I could shoot myself into my heart in my own apartment.

I did not ask about morality. Go with your dilemmas elsewhere neanderthal, you sit in your ivory tower discussing higher values while I crawl in agony looking for a way out. Don't spam this thread with useless things.
I also forgot to mention I could probably get pure oxy or morphine from pharmacy and mix it with tons of Xanax that I have sky-high tolerance on, no tolerance for opioids, but i feel like that is also extremely unreliable since I can only try it once and my stomach tract is destroyed.

Since it seems impossible to get SN I've been thinking about this a lot more. Yeah it sucks for the driver but it's not like society is leaving me many other options.

Same situation, cannot gain access to firearms, no high buildings in my city etc

You asked for a consensus of the method, in a public forum. That involves me giving you the potential consequences of the method. The method also has a lot of SI.

I think it's a gamble, but hey.... Do what you gotta do. Thoughts and prayers in whatever may happen. ♥

I have no issues with the ethics of it any longer. I used to, but have since changed my mind on that - all is fair in love and war and death, afaic, anyway.The only way I see this method as 100%, well 99.9%, since nothing in this world can ever be 100%, is by placing your neck on the track and letting a train's wheel(s) run over it. Just too many variables out of your control with jumping in front of a train.

If (and it is an if) you're impacted by a loco, or succeed in keeping your head on a rail until it passes over, then yes,it does seem like a very high prospect indeed of instant oblivion.
The downsides are the obvious ones, survival instinct or panic mode take control at the ultimate moment and you try to jump up or scramble clear, a part of the loco impacts you and flings your damaged body clear or the impact is a glancing one.
A Police Sgt here in the UK lost an arm and a leg last year as I recall, whilst attempting to remove a would be suicide from a railtrack as a loco approached. The would be suicide had, however already panicked and got clear uninjured.
I pass no comment on the morality or otherwise of this method, as I appreciate you're just looking for a way out.
Best wishes whatever your decision.

If SN will fail me I will have no other option than train and that scares me as trains in my country are pretty slow.

Seems to be a daily occurrence in the UK
Another reason why they should legalise voluntary assisted euthanasia so people don't have to use violent methods of exit that may fail or impact other people
