What Drives Someone To Commit Suicide. by AbuMikey(m): 9:53am On Jul 09, 2013 |
According to a professor, suicide is never a rational decision: it isn't about wanting to die, but about needing to stop extreme feelings of despair, hopelessness and pain. Suicidal behaviour, he says, is highly complex and can be categorized in various ways: 1. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE is where a person really intends to die, but fails in their attempt to do so. 2. PARA-SUICIDE is where someone isn't truly intent on killing him-or herself, but urgently needs to cry for help. in these cases, an attempted suicide is a means of attracting attention. 3. SUICIDE PACTS are where two or more people decide to end their lives together, for various reasons. 4. TERRORISM SUICIDE is where people willingly submit to death in order to carry out a political or religious action. e.g the september 11 atrocities in the US 5. PRESCRIBED SUICIDE is where people are expected take their own lives as a punishment for some social transgressions. 6. EXTENDED SUICIDE has become a disturbingly frequent phenomenon in Some parts of the world. this is where someone kills his or her family members and den commits suicide. 7. SUB-INTENTION SUICIDE is when someone leads a high risk lifestyle which can lead to death, such as having promiscuous, unprotected sex, taking drugs or driving recklessly. 8. SUICIDAL IDEATION is wen some one as compulsive thoughts about ending their life. So nairalanders tell us which have u guys experienced.Not you,but the one you've seen! |

Suicide thoughts is rampant in our society but easily neglected. I v been in situation where I contemplated it. Even attempted it. Pray none gets to level of seeing it as an option. Sincerely don't blame people that did take their life (without injury to another) Cos they didn't know better options. Could have changed if other info was available 1 Like |
