I tried hanging myself earlier. Partial. It was a lot harder then what I thought it would be. It was hard to let your legs go, but when I did I blacked out without realising but suddenly I was awake leaning on my feet in the corner of my door felt like I was having seizure. I think what I experienced were convulsions, I panicked and took the rope off. If only I had dropped my legs properly I might of died. So I'm thinking hanging isn't for me.
A 20 minute walk from where I live there's a motorway bridge, I'm planning on jumping off of it tonight. I plan to land on the centre of my skull bonus points if I get run over too. I'm thinking vodka may help and give me that Dutch courage?

I'm going to be direct here.

You were able to abort because you panicked. Someone driving a car doesn't get the same option.

Imo, it's really unfair to make an innocent person take part in killing you.

I hope you find a different place to jump if that's your chosen method.

You're new to the site, there is a list of method megathreads in the Resources Compilation, as well as a link to the PPH. Perhaps you will find a method that feels safer for you. A well-researched and well-planned method is more likely to lead to success.

I think this option is more hardcore than hang you

I don't think so, because at least when you've jumped you've jumped. With hanging it's hard to find the right spot.

You're just as likely to end up landing partially on your neck injuring yourself, maybe causing a mass pile up and being known as a mass murderer.
Unless part of the bridge is a sufficient distance from traveling vehicles, it's very hard to fall in a position you want, unless you're an Olympic diver, even then survival instinct will likely be a problem.
Please research and best wishes in what's best for you.

I hope you don't end your life by jumping off a motorway bridge. The trauma from killing someone will hurt the motorist for the rest of their life. I am sorry your life is so bad that you feel the need to CTB.:hug:

@ICan'tStayHere, how are you doing? I've checked this thread several times today and always click on your name to see if you're here, every time you've been on within an hour. No reacts or comments from you, so not sure how you're feeling about all the comments or how you're feeling in general.

It's evening now and you said you were going to attempt tonight, just want you to know that no one here will judge you for backing out, and lots of folks would be glad to support you if you'd like to talk.

I hope you're not hurt that you didn't get support for your method, anything that involves others is generally not too popular here, but that doesn't mean no one supports *you.* I hope you'll comment and let us know how you're doing.

Not really high. Something around 15 meters. I fell down, broke the waters surface. Heard a crack. My arms and legs went numb. I drowned because I couldnt move them, but was recovered by water police. Barely remember a thing until I was tied to a plastic board with a tube on my face with people screaming and slapping me repeatedly on both cheeks to wake me up. And when I woke up, I couldnt move.
Couldnt walk normally for months after that.

No No No NO !you will end up seriously injuring yourself and will not die instantly
1) You will facture your bones , you could even up in a wheelchair
2) Legal problems the UK police have fined sucidial people in the past for trying to jump on grounds of obstruction of a highway, tresspassing.
The police wherever you go can be rough
This method is too dangerous

Some general jumping notes :
https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threa...garding-suicide-by-jumping.35434/#post-656674

I think you would need to find a better location if jumping were your intended method.

There also appear to be 2 jumping megathreads :
https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/jumping-megathread.10250/
https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/jumping-megathread.11905/


Note : As always, please note that I strongly encourage you to seek help with whatever is troubling you. With the right help things can improve. There are many sources of help if you look and reach out. Please seek assistance in any and every way possible. You alone must decide upon your actions and take full responsibility for them, and you should always favour seeking help and keeping out of harm's way.

Forget the damm motorists

The motorists will more likely be annoyed that the person delayed their journey home from work.
I once read an article on online about a man who commited sucide by throwing himself via train . The communters in the comments section where more annoyed about thier train being delayed . I had a friend at uni who train got delayed due to a sucide . She said the man should have done it at home and compalined how her journeny was delayed

Jumping off a motorway is the worst method alongside the gun . I am british i dont like gun rights etc

The risk of permanant damge to the body is high

If it fails the person will end up on a wheelchair,paralysed from the neck down

Yeah I decided I'm going to go with suspended hanging instead. It's just finding the right time. With the isolation no ones leaving the house.

I don't mean the impatient motorists who are backed up in traffic miles before the scene, I mean those who either collide with the jumper or witness their impact on the ground or other vehicles.

Obviously not glad you're in that situation, but it's really good to hear about your change of method.

I hope you are able to find peace. I hope it's what you truly want & there are no other options. I know it's what I want so no judgement.
I would research it on here (if you haven't already) so you don't end up worse off than you are now.
I'm glad you decided not to jump off a bridge. As others have already pointed out what could happen if you went that route.
