Today I observed a failed suicide attempt. A girl climbed a building about 6 meters high and threatened to jump. About 5 or 6 minutes passed and then they rescued her. I managed to say two words. postpone it for later. and. I've thought about it too (but I don't think she heard me, she was very agitated). I saw her cry and then she was rescued.

I feel like this is the first time I've seen something like this. I don't know if 2022 counts. I was in Peru, Lima. and a young man jumped into a moving car, where I was a passenger. but he was very distracted. I didn't give it much importance. he came out unharmed

Good. I wanted to tell that story. postscript. This is my first post.

What a terrible story. I can't imagine the stress and anxiety she must have felt to attempt that. I hope she can find peace one day!

Yeah that's rough. Do you feel like it affected you? I don't know how I'd respond to something like that, but I'm glad you tried to lend her support

ppl might wanna ctb but once you're on the edge of a roof; you're confronted by the height of the fall, you're constantly thinking about how it ll be to fall down; what happens once you fall down, are you dead, are you heavily injured? what will happen to me if im heavily injured?

yea i can keep on adding more stuff to that, but the thing is; there's a survival instinct and there's a thought train that doesnt stop once youre at that exact moment of almost going to jump

The people who approached gave more support. I find that I did little.

my reaction was.
I was a little surprised (a little).

Oh, I thought you meant you said those things to her about postponing it and that you sympathized
