Mental health awareness friends

That's a big loss, human lives seems to go wasted. First of all we need to be very careful in handling such circumstances. When one is into mental stress it is very hard to find whats running within them. What can be done by us is the consoling words. One who committed themself to die and someway escaped will never think of suicide.

Hearing this kind of death news is really so hurting. Specially when that person is a friend. Depression is a disease which has no medicine but prevent by own. Its really hard to give those person company where they believe that there's no way left for him/her. Sometime great counseling can heal their mental pressure where the chances rate is lower.

I have no words to give you condolences for your friend death. We can learn a good lesson from this that if we do something like that from mental depression and think that there's no one to think about us then its completely wrong because we have so many well wisher like OP who will surrounded by complete sadness after committing this kinda unwanted things.

People will call them as coward when they quit their life by themselves but it is not happened because of him only surrounding causes more stress and made a decision like this.When we have someone to share our feelings then most of the people won't be much stressed but not everyone have that special person,sadly.

As a registered general nurse, it hurts me more when I here of issues like this. sorry for your loss. someone will even ask that what is mental health?
It is the psychological well being or adequate adjustment, particularly as such adjustment conforms to the community accepted standards of behavior.
It is also defined as the full and harmonious function of the whole personality. It is the adjustment of human beings to the world and to each other with a maximum effectiveness and happiness. This places emphasis on element of personality made up of ID,EGO,AND SUPEREGO. An individual is said to be mentally sick if he or she fails in his adjustment with his or her environment and so exposed conspicuously. Any family member or friend found exhibiting signs that you consider a failure in adjustment should be taken to the nearest psychologist for immediate action to be taken.

people today here are so mad especially for kids who makes time bully verbaly that they dont care what the other person will do. Also to my concern the one who bullies have the problem as well and the same time the victim, from my point of view is the affected one. The reason I must say is yes, acceptance of people meaning they are body shaming results low self estem and the last thing that victim would do is to die from the results of depression.

I lost a friend recently who took his own life. I had no idea how he was feeling to the run up of this and didn’t get to say goodbye. I feel guilty that I didn’t see the signs. I also suffer from depression and anxiety myself but have been in a good place and reshaped my life in the past couple of years.

I’d like to offer this thread in my friends memory to chat to anyone who is suffering from mental health issues and needs to vent or offload. I’m not a counsellor or professional but I am a caring person and will offer anyone my time to offer a reply.

Sorry at that,I attribute depression to an increase and The reason for this is the constant pressure of life.
Poverty is the real cause of depression,Most depressed people do not like to show their feelings.
We can avoid this by providing support from friends.

[bonker]

If you are in a place to help someone from relieve their mental strength then just do it,most of the people will cry once their loved ones died but they never care about how they are living their life.

Even myself realized that much strength but I have the mental strength to get out from it.

[Ezenwanyi1]

Sorry for the loss of your friend.
Mental health issue is a serious health challenge that many do not know exist.
In my country, most people think that it's only when one removes clothes and start walking nakes on the streets .
They fail to understand that mental health goes beyond that.
I have been depressed quite a few times, mine was triggered by family related issues and such at times, I tend to be want to be alone.
I can stay in the bedroom for the whole day and I get flared up at any slightest provocation.
I also tend to scream at my kids.
People may not understand what a depressed person passes through each Time.
What they need is care and assurance that they are well loved.

Mental imbalance is now on the increase this days I just watched on the news now how a man killed himself just because he couldn't afford to pay bills and take care of his family need and children out of school because he can't afford to pay the fees. My question is why is it that it men that suffered much from mental stress then women.

[coolcoinz]

Our mind is a tricky little thing. I went through ups and downs so many times and looking back it always amazes me how the way we see our own situation can be different from reality. To give you an example, when I was at school and my parents were paying my bills I was so happy with the little things. My ups and downs depended on a bad mark I was given at school, or the fact that I won against my friends in a computer game. A simple thing like going to the cinema with friends could make my day, even though I had very little money, no car, no job and had to live with my parents.

Later in life I had it all up a level. My own house, a girlfriend, a job, a car, and it started to take much more to make me happy. A simple meeting with a friend or going to the movies became like eating or drinking. To feel good I had to spend a lot of money, earn a lot from investments, or win in gambling. I was missing all the little things that I loved as a teenager. Back then, buying a new book or a computer game was the event of the day. Now it's just a couple clicks in an online store that I can do while taking a dump.

The bottom line is, when you feel down think about all the little things that you're missing out on. They are happening all around you! You usually aren't depressed because you're in deep shit all of a sudden. You just fail to appreciate the good moments and lose balance.

Hello bitgirluk, sorry for your loss. Losing a friend can't be compared to any precious thing in this world.

This is a serious problem that the person dealing with it doesn't even want others to know that they have it, why? because they are afraid that people will make fun of them. Depression is truly one of the hardest disease to fight with especially if you are alone and no one is helping you to cheer up.

If someone is on this condition too, feel free to message me, let's talk about on how beautiful life is. Keep on fighting!

Do you guys know if we have members that are mental health professionals? Surely we can cheer each other up and provide moral support in this thread but it would be really helpful if there are people who know how to properly address issues such as depression.

As mentioned by others early in this thread a lot of people that suffer from depression is because a lack of money.  I doubt anyone here is willing to just hand out money to people suffering from mental illness.  Moral support only goes so far when you can't afford the necessities to live.

[Tipstar]

I always considered anxiety a thing of weak minded people. Thought people who are not strong enough would face that problem and needs willingness to get out of it. But now I found out that's not always the case.
Though I'd call me as mentally fit as one can be, I sometimes have panic attacks. Don't know exactly what triggers them but they makes me feel pathetic.
I feel like I'm going out of breath, fainting, having a heart attack, a nausea, the nerves in my brain bursting or all at once.

The problem starts from the person that experience depression, they aren't even willing to share it.

It's kinda hard to figure out, they need someone to talk to in most times though seeking mental health professionals would contribute big help to conquer this kind of suffering.

[xvids]

This is so hard actually we couldn't see the signs then we would feel guilty because we know to ourself that we could have done something to avoid it.
This is why we shouldn't take anything for granted we should cherish every moment and do our best to enjoy it.
And I wish this thread would help for those member of this forum who are having a hard time.
May your friend rest in peace OP.

So sorry about that but in all no body have the right to take his own life no matter the the level of your anxiety or depression, we all need to know that depression is developed when you lack the motivation to face life challenges that comes your way. But in all just know that everything fades away with time.

I know that some people view suicide in different ways and you have the right absolutely to your opinion and it often leaves people behind really quite angry. You put the reasons for anxiety and depression and the solution to it so simply, but in all honesty it’s really not simple at all. Regardless of the level of motivation to the individual , that doesn’t always solve life’s challenges. And problems don’t always just fade away like that. From a personal perspective I can say each individual is different but the common trait that people with mental illness share is suffering and it’s a very tough journey for people to overcome it.

This thread might be completely useless , but if it serves any positivity at all then I think I’ve done my friends memory justice . And that makes me happy. Just a simple conversation can be someone’s lifeline.

That right when one is not able to solve life challenges that face him or her on a daily basis it hard to get motivation in such conditions, but the fact still remains the same no sane person will consider taking his own life but to people with mental problems any form of anxiety and depression will high rate of mental instability which in most cases leave them with no choice then to take to suicide. People with mental problems need more love from the society.

There are actually organizations that helps this kind of illness for free, since they are also getting fundings from the millionaires or some rich people and even the government. It's just that you have to go to the right person. Lastly, for me the best solution really is the awareness you should have to be aware of the people around you.

[omonuyak]

We always start to develop mental issues after experiencing some unusual problem and and shocked and what happened to you is just one of those things.  I think what you are planning to do is going to help many of us in developing our mind again after some depressive time.

[Indamuck]

There is still a strong stigma around mental awareness and many people do not take it seriously.  Trauma has a profound effect on us and our brain is an organ that can have issues just like any other part of our body.  People pretend like they care when someone is already dead but when asked for help beforehand very few will lend a helping hand.
