It is asked frequently, “Why people commit suicide.”

At the point When I was passing across my teenage, I wasn’t apart from those prats who ask this doltish question. In any case, today when I am in my early thirties, I have somehow got the measure of, “why people adjudicate to ram down themselves drawing breath anymore.”

Suicide has become the third leading cause of death under the teenage of 15 to 19 years.

Reasons behind suicide:

Depression and mental illness:

 We all get challenges at some stages of life. Be that as it may, soon elapses and we prevail over it. In any case for those who have been confined in a situation similar to this, the Situation becomes worse. This never-ending torment sticks with them and they assure themselves to make it part of their lives. They make compromises with their day to day habits. This sadness or depression doesn’t leave them for a single moment. 

At the point when they feel helpless, they cry, eat, sleep, and think. One more day they cry more, eat more, sleep more, and think more.

They are not able detecting any way out. Finally, they think to Surrender so that they might get out of this. But they actually don’t know to whom and to what, they need to surrender.

Then there comes a day when they feel in their bones to end this pain inside them. And to do so, they will have to end up their lives. So they commit suicide. 

Some kind of loss: 

When people couldn’t bear some kind of loss, It can be related to a job or business financial disputes. 

It can also be love loss or heartbreak (23746 per year in India), loss of family member (981 per year in India), loss in social position (490 per year in India), academic failure, or humiliation (2403 per year in India). In other stages, there prevails a fear to lose all these in the future. This loss or fear of loss brings people to a tragic life end.

Dreadful stressing condition:

Any kind of stress is never good for your health. Some people experience dreadful stressing conditions because of Sexual abuse, rape, childhood sexual abuse. Any kind of grim like this may lead to suicide even after years of the incident as it leaves a scar on the victim and afterward the victim lives the rest of the life with untold pain, Which compels them to commit suicide.

Loss of hope: 

When people lose hope in life. Compromise with self-esteem, constant humiliation, failure, some kind of loss, stressing family atmosphere, marriage related issue (6773 per year in India) may result in loss of hope. People without hope are people without sense, they won’t be able to find a way out and they find suicide the only way out.

The belief of never-ending pain:

 People start assuming that their pain will never end. This pain troubles them each and every moment, doesn’t allow them to smile, think, take decision, and move forward. This pain can be the outcome of job loss, love loss, financial loss, mental assault, and physical assault. They find no remedy for their pain other than suicide.

Worthless or depended life: 

Some accidental or illness history makes people dependent on others. They seek help for their daily needs, financial hand, visiting hospitals, and day to day life which they find intolerable. In spite of living this kind of worthless life, they end up their lives.

Excessive expectations:

 It is pretty obvious having expectations from life or someone special. But excessive expectations can be deadly in some cases. This expectation can be related to future growth, academic success, some recruitment, etc. Expectation can be from someone for a happy married life, any heart core wish, wish like dreams come true, etc. People with expectations become so obsessive that they are not able to understand even the transparent situation of life. When their expectation doesn’t meet the destination they end up their lives.

Literacy: 

Education can be the cause of someone’s death, it sounds weird but it happens. When a person gets educated, the mind gets broader and developed heir mind doesn’t accept failure or demotion. Their tolerance ability could not tolerate any kind of demerits  

In 2012, 80% of suicide victims were literate higher than the national average literacy rate of 40%.

Sexual Disability: 

People with physical or intellectual disabilities are often considered as non-sexuals. This disability can be by birth or after some injury. People with infertility are not able to produce children, they find it loses in pride and self-esteem. These people with permanent disease find suicide the only cure.

Suicide rates are also high with people from special groups like lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex (LGBTI). These people helpless the way they are. Even their family, friends, relatives, and society refuse to accept and understand of what they are. This becomes the deadly cause of their life end.

Data based on Suicide Patterns

(Based on 2012 studies)

Self Poisoning: 

It is considered that self-poisoning is the major method of committing suicide. It is estimated that around 20% of suicide is the result of consuming pesticide or self-poisoning Globally. In India it 31% of total suicide rate counted. 

Hanging: 

Surrendering the lives by hanging themselves is another major cause of suicide. In India, this is 26% of the whole suicides.

Firearms: 

Shooting themselves by gun is also a cause of suicide. It has been counted 16% of the whole data in India.

Burning:

People burn themselves to ashes using firearms. It is estimated as 11% of the whole in India.

Drowning: 

Drowning in a swimming pool or other water bodies. In India, it is 6% of the total suicide rate counted.

At this edge of the moment when they have suffered a lot, they start finding the easiest way for their lives to ripped off. Why the easiest way for this. It just they don’t want to be in pain anymore. A way taking their lives away with least pain. 

Somehow I have managed figuring out, “why people commit suicide.”

“When life becomes more painful than death When the pain of death becomes a cure for a lifetime.” “People commit suicide.”

Life after suicide

You would be amazed that there is no life after suicide. Life never ends, it goes on and on. After your life is over, people left after you, your family, and friends will lead their life without you. 

After figuring out on these so many questions gathering over my head, the Question at the very beginning of the post is still the same, “why suicide.” 

We can be able doing so many other things out of our lives blessed to us. Believe me, if we sum up, our lives are better than millions of people. 

If u ever think of surrendering your life just wait for another moment to come. Go out, see someone less prosperous, less social, and less with advantage than you. Trust me you will feel better than before. We have no right to curse the people closed to us, our family, our parents, our kids, friends, and relatives. For sure we would have gone through a tough time, during which we felt nobody was there to us. But believe me, there is always a group of people who were always there to hear you. All you have to do is to make a right call and make your heart out.

I have made my mind so many times to finish my life off. Each time I have thought about my kids and parent. The pain they would suffer from when they would see my body with no breath left in me. And my kids would never know why I have left and curse them this way. My closed ones would never gonna know the reason why I have forsaken desire to live because there would be none after me to tell them except me of what I was coping with.

So there’s no harm to keep me alive and open my heart before the souls, I love most and who love me the same way. My family…..
