I post this topic here because its related to mental health

I read newspaper lately. There is one breaking news regarding a young guy admitted suicide because of losing his job.

Well, if you read through the pass history, it always has bad things happened every year. Some people can succeed during economic crisis while others affected by outside forces. On the other hand, when the economic is very good, some people still losing their job. Its just the matter of how you think about yourself. If you think on positive way, you will get positive force. (The Secret)

There is a free webinar from mental health program

Topic: Suicide Prevention for Rural Primary Care: a Toolkit for Providers
The presentation will include information on suicide risk identification, suicide prevention, and prescribing for depressed patients

Hope that those info can help you get to know more about suicide prevention.

commiting suicide is not so common in M'sia compared to Japan

but stress & depression is very high, worst it leads to theft & roberry.

Ya... I also hope that stress and depression wouldn't turn to suicide case.

Trust me Malaysians are so bloody cowardly they probably will run before they commit suicide.

So young also want to commit suicide, GTFO.

Ya... most of the people committed suicide without the reason.. wait, i should say we can't understand them. That is why I posted some suicide prevention info.

Suicides are for cowards. Everybody faces difficulties in some point of their lives and taking the easy way out is not the answer. The stupidest type of suicides are the ones who kill themselves over a lost love. It might hurt like hell if we break up with our loved ones but this is not the end of the world. Be brave and move on - who knows there might be a better guy/girl out there waiting for you.

ya ya

These things dont aim by age.hehe.
heck, even heart attack and stroke are hitting 30+-yr old people often d.

Good or bad I wonder Haha

Those of you who are condemning people who commit suicide obviously don't know what it means to have depression lasting for years. Stop talking out of your ignorance unless you have any idea at all what these people go through. My god such stupidity.

Fearz!! i just posted this topic to help people understand more about suicide prevention!

wei... it still dont justify y u hav to go suicidal rite? leaving behind ur mess for other to settle .. life is hard.. so face it.. if like is easy .. u will be like animal...

TS didn't condemn & it's related to health since we're in a Health & Fitness Forum.
So mind your words before replying.

Nice spamming here, btw that guy wasn't referring to TS. Do read the whole thread. Some are blaming the suicide victims. That's unjustified and mean.

Heres some news related to this topic; from the Star:

Chinese ‘more suicidal’


A TOTAL of 43% of suicide victims are Chinese, Nanyang Siang Pau reported yesterday.

Quoting statistics from the Health Department, Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen said that while the Chinese only made up 26% of the population in the country, nearly half of the suicide cases involved members from the community.

“Cases of men committing suicide are two-fold higher than women (for all races),” she said during a dinner with MCA delegates in Sungai Petani.

Dr Ng said a counselling unit would be set up under her ministry to help men. She was of the view that men, especially Chinese, did not confide in their friends when they faced problems.

“Women faced with problems will tell their friends or resort to crying and this helps to reduce stress.

“Apart from focusing on issues related to women and children, the ministry is also concerned with problems faced by men that may lead to a family tragedy at times,” she said.

Dr Ng also said men resorted to violence to resolve their problems while women tended to use their minds.

Well if people build their whole life to revolve around money then obviously when the money is gone then their life will have nothing else to fall back on so suicide is the best option

too bad that's the motive of most of the people who working currently. Who don't work for money? The rich and smart one.

Well, most suicidal people are depressed. That's y its important for us to provide support and care for our loved ones.

Money is just one of the triggering factors, but the actual cause is severe depression or other mental illnesses.

Young men sucide huh?
depression is a very serious problem ... it causes the person to reject others and stay in solitude

and due to extensive time in solitude ... one would think the world does not need him/her ... thus the thinking of sucide slowly arises ....


most of us may think depression only for stressed ppl ... but animals DO has such a behaviour as well ....

so if you have a slight depression ... quickly call your friends for a short chat ... DO NOT let the problem lingers as things might get MESSY later on

All humans are born depressed, it is the veil and this illusionary world we live in that distracts us from the journey to the truth. It's those who've broken away from the illusionary system created for us and got lost, end up in depression.

i think police in msia is crazy.... if u fail to suicide they will charge u and send u to jail. from newspaper last year.
