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.

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

Of all days to see this.
