Does suicide spread as a virus?
The day 10 September 2024 is internationally dedicated to ‘Suicide Prevention Day’.
As an expert by experience and coach, I believe it remains important that this subject continues to receive attention. Suicide is ultimately responsible for 1 in 100 fatalities, according to the World Health Organization.
Suicide is more than just a desperate deed or mental illness on its own. Whatever the reason, it stems from that person’s incapacity to maintain a balance in their mental well-being.
It spreads as a virus and affects not just the one doing it but also the mental health of those around them in significant ways.
I have witnessed both sides of the suicide as a human.
Due to the agony of her illness, the confusing effects of the painkiller medication, and the harmful influences of her early life, my late wife made her ultimate decision in May 2018.
Sadly, I have been regularly exposed to the negative effects from prescription drugs such as benzodiazepines, antidepressants, and others. They had a darkening impact on my mind, causing irrational thoughts and acts in severely stressful situations, without the instinctual urge to protect myself.
And we weren’t the only victims! That’s the reason why I’m putting this petition out there.
The importance of appropriate treatment for highly sensitive persons and empaths is sometimes greatly overlooked by both people and medical professionals, which can lead to unintended acts of despair.
As a coach, I provide personalised guidance to people based on their life experiences, with or without therapeutic assistance.
In order to prevent suicides, this subject seeks to increase awareness of the significance of lowering stigma and promoting open-hearted discussions.
Together, let’s try to lower the number of people who make that poor decision.
By improving the quality of their life and relationships, everyone can make a difference by becoming more aware of their negative tendencies.
Businesses can contribute by making investments in their workers’ well-being, productivity, and overall contentment.
Governments can take part by enhancing the standard and accessibility of their healthcare system and placing a strong emphasis on prevention, next to healing. There is no doubt that those in good health will always be happier than those in poor health.
Together, we can alter the way we observe suicide and lessen the factors that lead to these desperate acts! Help to spread awareness around the world, like and share this post as much as you can!
