Oct. 2018 I was a victim of a pedestrian v. vehicle collision. I know for a fact that I specifically was looking up videos of cars running into pedestrians on bestgore and I always had split-second urges of jumping in front of a car, as idiotic as it probably sounds. I don't have any memory of the day it happened, so I have no clue if it was an actual attempt or if the driver was at fault. When I got home after the 2 week coma and two week physical therapy, the first thing I did was apologise to everyone, and they were very confused when I did so. For some reason I don't even feel bad for myself.

Failed to jump - didn't realise how hard it is to do. I regret attempting it (that way) because I am now known to the mental health services and the police (I am assuming here.) Then there's my mum, who now knows and it's like being on a continuous guilt trip. I feel I'm in a worse position now than I was in before.

I tried first at 14 where I took 32 or 36 500mg paracetamol tablets, can't remember the exact amount. Again at 19 where I took a box of an asthma drug called uniphyllin continus. January 2019 tried to jump as well.

3 times failed partial and 2-3 times failed tourniquet.

Failed cause i didn't commit fully and cause i couldn't find the sweet spot. Worst of all, i actually found the sweet spot on one of my practice runs with the tourniquet, but never again.

Yes i'm ready to try again, i'm just trying to be smarter about it this time. No more failures.

When I was around 19 i locked myself in my parent's bathroom and started taking aspirin tablets ( no internet back then for research and used whatever was to hand!, I remember being out and making the decision on the way home that I needed to die) but my mom came home and interrupted me before I'd had a chance to take any near decent amount. Last year I tried mixing oramorph and paracetamol with alcohol but nothing happened apart from having a very sleepless night, mainly because I probably didn't take enough by far. When i CTB this time it will be thoroughly researched and there will be no errors (hoping to use SN) and I will plan in advance so everything is ready. All I can say it thank God I found this site! x

Back in september I tried to jump off the Golden Gate bridge but I couldn't bring myself to do it because I was too scared to jump.

Are there preventive measures put in place on the Golden Gate Bridge? Like nets? Or is anyone free to jump?

Last I read, they're actually erecting safety "anti-suicide" nets around it now. Sucks :(
