Suicide...
I've thought a lot about it when i was young and I've made a couple attempts but it never worked . (stupid me..lol)Why am i blogging this stuff? I happened to be here in Gulf View and my 2 auntie's were talking about their friend's 16 years daughter who tried to commit suicide by cutting her wrist. If my sense of hearing is accurate, the girl committed suicide because she founds out that she was 2 months pregnant and i supposed her boyfriend runaway (i'm such a gossipy woman ..hahah)
An estimated 11% of the US population will experience depression at some time. Suicide accounts for 32,000 deaths yearly in the US and is the 11th leading of cause of mortality.
In Eastern Europe, 10 countries report more than 27 suicides per 100,000 persons. Latin America and Muslim countries report the lowest rates, fewer than 6.5 cases per 100,000. (according to emidicine)
Adolescence is a stressful experience for all teens. It is a time of physical and social change with hormones producing rapid mood swings from sadness to elation. Lack of life experience may result in impulsive behavior or poor decisions. Most teenagers killed their selves because they were trying to escape from a situation that seemed impossible to deal with or to get relief from really bad thoughts or feelings. Some people who end their lives or attempt suicide might be trying to escape feelings of rejection, hurt, or loss. Others might be angry, ashamed, or guilty about something. Some people may be worried about disappointing friends or family members. And some may feel unwanted, unloved, victimized, or like they're a burden to others.
While listening i had time to reflect. We all feel overwhelmed by difficult emotions or situations sometimes. But most people get through it or can put their problems in perspective and find a way to carry on with determination and hope. I ain't good in this issue for the reason that at times when i feel like every thing around me is crushing and i don't know how to deal with all the adversities in my life at the back of my mind i wished to die. But, i came to a realization that I ain't God. I have no right to end my life just because of those stupid reasons.
So why does one person try suicide when another person in the same tough situation does not? What makes some people more resilient (better able to deal with life's setbacks and difficulties) than others? What makes a person unable to see another way out of a bad situation besides ending his or her life? That was the few questions that helped me.
Well, I and my aunt will visit Angel in San Pedro Hospital this week. Hopefully she'll get better and realized how stupid she was..(i will tell her that " You're stupidly Stupid!......)
