Life is unpredictable but precious.  Fighting this battle every single day makes us warrior in a way prepping us to withstand everyday harsh realities. While quitting appears easy, the spirit to wake up a new person with newer passions everyday makes us stronger and eventually happier. The problem arises when the list of “wants” piles up and belittls the list of ‘needs’. Try to be contended with what you have and be grateful for that.

The Disappearing Identity: Kashmiri without Kashmir

August 7, 2025

Suicide is often seen as a final solution to what seems like an insurmountable problem or situation, and it can be devastating to those left behind. Imagine you, the only hope of your family, gone and they are left to beg on the streets since people move on in their lives. So, stand up for yourself, your loved ones. 

Mental illness is often a significant factor in suicide cases. Studies show that individuals with psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia have an increased risk of suicide compared to those without these conditions. Suicide rates are especially high among those who experience intense emotional pain, feel trapped, or experience feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness, or helplessness.

Another psychological factor that can contribute to suicide is impulsivity. Some individuals may be more impulsive and have difficulty regulating their emotions, which can lead to impulsive acts including suicide. Substance abuse and addiction can also contribute to impulsivity and increase the likelihood of suicide. Self-esteem and self-worth also play a significant role in suicide. 

Individuals who feel inadequate, unloved, or rejected may see suicide as a way to escape the pain of their existence. These feelings can be especially strong in teenagers and young adults who may be struggling to find their identity or place in the world.

Social isolation and loneliness can also be risk factors for suicide. Humans are social creatures, and we need meaningful connections with others to thrive. When individuals feel disconnected from others, they may experience intense feelings of loneliness and despair, which can contribute to suicidal thoughts and behaviour .Cultural and societal factors can also play a role in suicide. 

Some cultures stigmatise mental illness and discourage individuals from seeking help, leading them to feel ashamed or embarrassed about their struggles. Others may view suicide as a heroic or honourable act, leading individuals to see it as a viable option when faced with difficulties.

Feelings of loneliness and isolation are what we mean when we talk about thwarted belongingness, and the idea that we are a burden on others is what we mean when we talk about perceived burdensomeness. When used together, they might cause an overwhelming want to end one’s life. By “learned capability for suicide,” we mean the belief that an individual must first overcome their natural aversion to pain and death before attempting suicide.

Preventing suicide requires a multifaceted approach that addresses psychological, social, and cultural factors. It’s essential to identify and treat underlying mental health conditions and provide support and resources to those who are struggling. Effective suicide prevention also involves creating safe and supportive communities, reducing access to lethal means, and promoting awareness and education about suicide. Providing education on mental health and reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness can help individuals feel more comfortable seeking help and support.

Another important step is to promote social connections. Social isolation and loneliness can contribute to mental health issues and suicidal thoughts, so it’s important to encourage social connections and support networks. This can involve community activities, support groups, and outreach programs. Addressing risk factors is also crucial. Certain risk factors, such as a history of trauma, substance use, and access to lethal means, can increase the risk of suicide.

Suicide is preventable, and there is always a hope. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts or behaviours, seek help.
