People do not choose to be suicidal. It's not a "situation" nor a "phase." It's not treated by "pulling up your bootstraps," nor does it likely escape time. And yes, prayer can help... which is why God created mental health providers to help!

Depression is REAL. And when it's not treated, it can lead to suicidal thoughts and attempts. Su***de is not a weakness, nor is it selfish. IT IS AN ILLNESS. And because it is a severe mental health disorder, often precipitated by commonly identified risk factors, it should not be compared to the mindset or actions of a healthy mind. A healthy mind would likely seek help when needed. It would not isolate from others nor would it believe that self-harm is the only option. When a person is suicidal (acutely or chronic), using healthy tools is overpowered by the strong desire to end their "pain." In turn, this requires more than "will power" to overcome the despair that a suicidal mind presents.

It is important for society to be aware of the signs, symptoms and risk factors of a depressed and suicidal individual. When identified early, concerns can be communicated which will hopefully lead to an effective treatment plan.

Any of the following are possible warning signs that a person may be at risk for su***de:

▶️ Excessive sadness or moodiness: Long-lasting sadness and mood swings can be symptoms of depression, a major risk factor for su***de.
▶️ Sudden calmness: Suddenly becoming calm after a period of depression or moodiness can be a sign that the person has made a decision to end his or her life.
▶️ Withdrawal: Choosing to be alone and avoiding friends or social activities also are possible symptoms of depression. This includes the loss of interest or pleasure in activities the person previously enjoyed.
▶️ Changes in personality and/or appearance: A person who is considering su***de might exhibit a change in attitude or behavior, such as speaking or moving with unusual speed or slowness. In addition, the person might suddenly become less concerned about his or her personal appearance.
▶️ Dangerous or self-harmful behavior: Potentially dangerous behavior, such as reckless driving, engaging in unsafe s*x, and increased use of drugs and/or alcohol might indicate that the person no longer values his or her life.
▶️ Recent trauma or life crisis: A major life crisis might trigger a su***de attempt. Crises include the death of a loved one or pet, divorce or break-up of a relationship, diagnosis of a major illness, loss of a job, or serious financial problems.
▶️ Making preparations: Often, a person considering su***de will begin to put his or her personal business in order. This might include visiting friends and family members, giving away personal possessions, making a will, and cleaning up his or her room or home. Some people will write a note before committing su***de.
▶️ Threatening su***de: Not everyone who is considering su***de will say so, and not everyone who threatens su***de will follow through with it. However, every threat of su***de should be taken seriously.
