Is train really worse than other options?

[ZoloftSüchtig]

So as I'm thinking about what method to do for cbt I'm often thinking about cbt by train. Putting my neck on the rails so for the train to decapitate me. I once tried laying on the train tracks and it felt kinda peaceful with music on but I didn't commit. I do not want to traumatise anyone but given SN and N don't seem to be options for me aren't all the options I have sadly gonna shock the person finding me? Is it gonna be worse for a train driver for having run over me then it is for a person to find me having jumped or hanged myself? The train option seems like the option I'd be able to commit the easiest to out of the three options in my mind (jumping, hanging, decapitation by train), but if it is gonna ruin some innocent persons life I do not want to do it.

Train, like jumping, destroy the body and makes it horrible for those who see it, and those who will have to clean it, moreover in public place, it's already traumatizing for adult but for children...
Hanging is the most peaceful of the three, but you're going to have to train (pun) by hyperventilating to make the hanging easier (for partial).

Decapitation by train is possible but difficult. There is something they put on front of the train called a cow-catcher that is made to know things away instead of running them over.

As others have said, it makes other people involuntarily become involved in your suicide. It makes your body gruesome (true for many methods though) and they results of failure are very bad.

I guess you are right. I wouldn't want to jump in front of the train though. I would want to put my body on the train tracks in a way that would decapitate me.
I guess it is gonna be jumping then because I absolutely have no idea how I would hang myself even though I've read many times how to do it. It just seems so complicated and I need an easy option

I've heard of these cow-catcher things and so I tried to look out for them and I think the ones I looked at didn't have them.

I sadly don't know wich method I can do that won't make anyone involuntary involved in my suicide? I guess though jumping and hanging might be less shocking because at least no one is gonna think they actually killed me and the train driver might.

If survival instinct kicks in at the last moment, or you make an involuntary movement you may finish up surviving, but horribly maimed with life changing injuries.
If you succeed in ctb the train crew may well finish up with serious PTSD and lifelong mental issues which is less likelyfor the person who discovers your body in the event of hanging, as they will have played no part, even involuntarily, in your death.
If you are successful in achieving decapitation remember what is left after a train and carriages have run over the body will not be a neat, headless corpse. Believe me, the people who have to clean up the remains will be impacted by the event.

You are right. I guess I just hope it was different because I feel this method would be the easiest for me to go through with but reading what you all wrote makes sense and I'm quite likely not gonna choose suicide by train! I would love a method that is quick, easy, painless, not possible to go wrong and that doesn't traumatise anyone else.

 

[SVEN]

Gosh, wouldn't we all love such a method,ZoloftSüchtig, if only. I know of none such which are easily obtainable, I fear, sorry.

In the area where I live it is not uncommon for people to commit suicide by being hit by a train. Too much pressure to succeed.. it's sad but I'm not sure if there's many conductors that have not experienced that situation. It would be the last option I would consider but being sick my entire life things are only getting worse for me. I know in the future I'm sure I'll be homeless and too sick to take care of myself. I hope I find a different solution. The last thing I want to do is traumatize someone since I've experienced a life full of trauma. As I write this I can hear the train go by.. until recently it was one of my favorite sounds

Yes. It would be very painful, there is a good chance that you would not die just end up paralyzed, and on top of that you would probably traumatize the trian driver for life. Aside from the fact that you would then make quite a bit of trouble for the passengers on the train and probably traumatize many as well.

Wouldn't be my first choice by any means but after being sick for 5 decades nothing but a long painful death in front of you might start thinking of ways that you would not have when you were much younger. The light rail here is twice as fast as a train and for some reason everyone as far as I know that have attempted has succeeded. It happens frequently here. Where I live there is a very high expectation to succeed.. probably more than any place in the world. At one time they had to have people posted at the railroad crossings at all times. If that gives you any idea of how often it takes place. Probably couldn't make it to the tracks anyway even though I live close.. I am pretty much bedbound so don't have too many resources. No worries I'm not going to be traumatizing any strangers. But if somebody is planning or considering CTB and they have any friends or family someone is going to be traumatized. After decades I have taken everything into consideration as anyone should.

It's not fair on the driver. When this happens, the driver usually has to take a long time off work and attend counselling.

Believing you have the right to die is one thing. Co-opting the unknowing or the unwilling is a different matter.

one of the problem with train is the fact that it's far from guaranteed, especially if the train isn't particularly high speed. If you rly have no other option, do it in a place that's somewhat far from hospitals, it'd be nice if you can do it at night, and the most important factor would be how fast the train is. Because if you fail, it'd be hellish.

Do you think jumping from a high place, death is more certain than from a train?

 

[gardenfairy]

my father is a train driver who had someone jump once. the guy survived, ended up without his arms and legs (if i'm remembering correctly), then died. my dad coped well (on the outside at least) bc he's a very strong man, but some of his colleagues are wrecked with ptsd from multiple jumpers or jumpers who are young etc. i know this is probably not what you want to hear but i hope it helps.

I would really like to take a walk along the railway tracks. And kill myself by putting head under a train.
Unfortunately, my condition has now worsened. Dysphoria increased. I haven't gone outside for a very long time.
So I'm considering the inert gas method.
