The paragraph below may be a simplistic attitude?: I accept that anyone who wishes to take their own life must be deeply troubled mentally & everyone who is contemplating suicide has different issue's that have caused them to become so depressed, they consider taking their own life. BUT:
Are they not the most selfish people ever? They have no consideration for the heartbreak & distress they cause to those Family & Friends they leave behind, plus also, those railway staff & members of the public who will have witnessed this incident & who will be traumatised for a very long time, possibly forever.
Selfish buggers. Holding all that inner pain and anguish inside them until they feel jumping in front of a train is the only way out.
Nothing rational about any of it so how can blame be laid.
Thats why it's called mental illness. If you're thinking straight you don't kill yourself.

I was working on the lift at the station and saw him jump. Fuckin horrific! Literally 10 ft away on the same platform. It definitely wasn't an accident. He waited for the train, the guard who was signing my paperwork screamed at him 'get away from the edge' and with that he just jumped! That noise of the train hitting him then running over him was horrific!
Really sorry that you had to witness something like that! It's so horrific for everyone involved (witnesses, family and especially the driver of the train!!) Hope you have a good Christmas regardless of a nightmare inducing situation!

Cheers for your comments. Wide awake all night. Think this may take a while to leave the mind... Merry Christmas :-(
