When we were in the middle of our infertility journey I was driving across the Golde Gate Bridge and I saw a jumper’s heels go over the railing. Found out later he’d thrown his 2 year old over a minute before. Custody dispute. How can you waste a life like that?
People are messed up.
I cycled back and forth from wishing I’d pushed him to wishing I could have had the child. We lived about 15 miles line-of-sight from the GG Bridge then. It was a couple of years before I stopped seeing bodies falling from the bridge when I’d look (though we were too far away to see that kind of detail).
There is a film about Golden Gate Bridge suicides, apparently it happens a lot.
