Suicide, a silent crisis that affects hundreds of thousands of people each year
Suicide is a complex and tragic phenomenon that affects millions of people worldwide each year. It is the conscious decision to end one’s own life, and it is usually the result of intense emotional or mental suffering that feels unbearable.
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that approximately over 700,000 people die by suicide each year, making it one of the leading causes of death worldwide.
Suicide is multifactorial and can result from a complex interaction of psychological, social, biological, and environmental factors.
Among the most common risk factors are: mental disorders; socioeconomic factors; family and personal factors; access to lethal means; and social isolation.
It is important to take any comments or warning signs seriously, as many people contemplating suicide may not explicitly ask for help.
One of the biggest challenges in suicide prevention is the stigma surrounding it. Many individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts do not seek help due to fear of judgment or misunderstanding.
