When one commits suicide then it is that single moment when one does not care for anyone, neither parents, nor family or friends, but just want to culminate his or her life for one particular reason. He or she wants to rest in peace. But who knows about life after death, whether life after death is peaceful or do we have to go through our previous karmas in future lives or where God will send us or what he will make us. There are many mysterious questions that cannot be answered. This means that you know nothing about your condition after death. So, presuming death is peaceful than life is not 100% true. Young Indians especially wealthy and educated are more likely to commit suicide as development is forcing youth to the condition of hopelessness. Job anxiety, competition, educational pressure, and society can also increase the number of suicide cases in India. As more and more number of young ones are relying on electronic gadgets than their family, the frustration level is increasing. The younger generation is also facing pressure from their families to get higher marks and many parents believe that their kids should come first in the class. This is one of the leading causes of suicides in the school-going generation in India. But whatsoever may be the reason, this step is not a solution to any problem. One must be strong enough to face the realities of life. Accept both good and bad with open arms and do not let anything disturb you.

Suicide is preventable

Together, we must all stand up, speak up, and advocate for better policies and implementation of resources for mental health. We must view suicide as a condition needing treatment, not as a punishment. A multi-pronged approach must be taken to decrease the world’s suicide rate. Mental health education and resources for dealing with symptoms of mental health should be taught and promoted from an early age. Doing so will provide an avenue for the maintenance of dignity and help-seeking behavior. If you know someone who is feeling suicidal or is emotionally distressed, tell them that you care for them. Being an active listener and being aware of signs of distress can help you to be there and make the person realize that you will help them and that they deserve to be helped. Being empathetic helps the person feel understood and heard. It is important to realize that feeling suicidal is not the nature of the person but a mere state of mind. People feel suicidal because they feel nothing else will work out and their death will solve the problem. Suicidal thoughts are often linked with a mental disorder and can be treated well.

World Suicide prevention Day

World Suicide Prevention Day is an awareness day observed on 10 September every year, in order to provide worldwide commitment and action to prevent suicides, with various activities around the world since 2003. The aim of the day is to research and collect data on suicidal behavior, determine the various causes and why its signs go unnoticed, and developing sound practices and policies for suicide prevention. Events and activities on World Suicide Prevention Day include conferences, seminars, and discussion forums; formulating new policies for suicide prevention; the use of media as a tool for promoting awareness; memorial ceremonies to remember those who lost the battle to mental illness; educating adolescents on suicide and who to reach out to if needed; and establishing support groups and special facility centers as resources for depression and suicide awareness and treatment.
