I have always thought that people who commit suicide are just losers trying to escape from their problems.. i mean ya.. maybe to a certain extent it is true especially for people who owe loansharks lotsa money and just cant find ways to pay them back and then just choose to end their life, some even bring their family's life together. Anyways.. something happened and triggered me to google about suicide. So basically, i found that, to some people, extreme stress, emotional upset, abuse, poverty, neglect, disability etc.. show no hope or change and improvement and hence eventually precipitate depression and suicidal thoughts. But for some others, suicide is not something they want.. or rather it;s not something they choose. It can be due to various brain chemistry deficiencies and/or disorders.
According to http://www.intheknowzone.com/teen_suicide/why.html, it says ...
"Suicidal thoughts are an involuntary affliction ! We don't choose to think them. Suicidal thoughts just enter, they just come into your mind on their own.
And they don't just sit idly by...
Suicidal thoughts are VERY ACTIVE and have tremendous emotional power !
They push you, urge you, compel you towards suicide.
At times, I felt it almost as an entity darkly drawing me into the dark universe, an eternal vacuum of death
...a wrenching, twisting, turning emotional agony."
Thus although untreated depression is the bottom line and life circumstances can breed suicidal thoughts, a person with a healthy brain chemistry is not even going to think of suicide.
This is how the suicidal statistics in the world in year 2006.. Red is high, Yellow is medium, and Blue is low while white means no data collected from the region. (from the WHO stats)
Yea.. i know u may be wondering why i talk about suicide all of a sudden. CHILL!.. i m not contemplating suicide or anything close to that. Something happened to a fren's fren and my close fren is very troubled by it.. so thought i find out something about it and share them here. So ya..this is it. Once again, to clarify, i m fine, nothing is wrong with me and i m happy...:)
Stay strong people... for urself, for ur loved ones. Life is beautiful(i guess)..hahaha
