Ilamina: There are numerous reasons that lead people to commit suicide But the significance of suicide is the fact that they can't take it anymore (either what is seen or what is felt) i.e it is beyond what their soul can contain Circumstances like these vary a lot just as I've said, there are numerous reasons humans take their life of which the leading cause is Trauma : either through a devastating illness or experience Devastating illnesses (both physical & mental) ranging from Cancer, Quadriplegia, Clinical depression, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Alzheimers, Central Pain Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis and several other terminal and/or intractable illnesses Devastating Experiences such as long-term torture/ abuse/suffering, esteem-crushing experiences, an almost impossible will to stop unhealthy addictions, sudden & shocking losses of highly cherished things such as finance, loved ones, relationships, businesses, reputation, properties etc. and a bunch of other experiences. These trauma situations usually make victims believe that there's no hope to start again or redeem what has been lost; that they do not have any purpose they're living for anymore and continuous endurance will only lead to a life of chronic misery... this is where suicide comes in and they consider quitting To a certain extent their instincts are valid, it only takes so much grace and support for some stories to be rewritten, not all have that opportunity This is why in the case of terminal/intractable illnesses, EUTHANASIA (physician assisted suicide) is legalized & promoted in the medical field across some regions/countries around the world Going forward, these trauma situations as explained tend to technically lead to depression and when they do, it's an added trauma layer. Generally, the continously promoted misconceptions about depression makes it even harder for it to be conquered, misconceptions such as 1. It's a sign of weakness 2. It's all in the head and once you can divert/control your mind you can conquer it 3. It's 'only' when you think of sad stuff too much that you can fall into it 4. Depression = Sadness ; Everyone experiences depression once in a while 5. It will go away itself 6. It's only peculiar to a certain race, class, age bracket or gender 7. One can't be happy and full of life while battling with depression Also some of the 'subtle' symptoms of depression makes it hard to detect especially by unwary people 1. Changes in appetite or weight 2. Problems falling asleep or staying asleep 3. Constant tiredness and lethargy 4. Excessive & unusual laziness 5. Unusual patterns in daily activities Other symptoms of depression which are easier to detect are : less interest in usual activities, loss of pleasure, easy irritation/anger, apathy, general discontent, guilt, hopelessness, lack of concentration, slowness in activity, or thoughts of suicide. Now Depression and Suicide happens to fall in the same sequence with a terrible phase in between them known as ANHEDONIA (discover more details about it on the net) Anhedonia makes the victim have more inclination towards killing himself despite the "wealth", "love", "fame", supposed "fun" and other great things that may be being enjoyed because it's simply debilitating and unbearable |
