कल तक परेशान जो शख्स था,

सुना है आज वो चैन की निंद सो गया..।

Suicide is an act of taking one's own life voluntarily and Intentionally..

Recent news of suicide by a television actress preksha mehta and many others like sejal sharma,kushal punjabi,manmeet grewal and many more....list is never ending...

ये चिंता का भी विषय है....और चिंतन का भी

Currently common causes of suicide are Depression,corona phobia,fear of stigma and discrimination for being covid positive and guilt associated with it,financial instability,Job insecurity,relationship issues etc...

Every 40 seconds, someone loses their life to suicide.

Close to 800000 people die by suicide every year worldwide. 

In india 1.5 lakh people die of suicide every year.

Furthermore, for each suicide, there are more than 20 suicide attempts.

Suicides and suicide attempts have a ripple effect that impacts on families, friends, colleagues, communities and societies.

ANY SINGLE THOUGHT OF SELF HARM SHOULD BE SCREENED BY A MENTAL HEALTH PROFFESIONAL

If der are warning signs...don't neglect.

Rush to psychiatrist/psychologist and not to an astrologer.

*SUICIDE IS PREVENTABLE*
