Suicide is the act of taking one’s own life as a result of a psychiatric disorder that sometimes is brought on with certain life threatening illnesses, stress, genetics, or other influences like physical or emotional abuse. There are many conditions that are known for having suicidal thoughts and ideation as a side effect; major depression, manic depression, or bipolar disorder, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, and many more.

The first time I experienced someone suffering suicidal ideation was when I was very young, with one of my boyfriends. He would start crying and began to mention that he wanted to kill himself, so he could be with his Mum, who was deceased. He had a number of risks factors, firstly, he had no living family and very limited friends. Also, he had been fired from his job and had drug and alcohol issues. On top of all of that, I suspect that he had a mental health disorder.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, scientific evidence has shown that almost all people who take their own lives have a diagnosable mental or substance abuse disorder, and the majority have more than one disorder. In other words, the feelings that often lead to suicide are highly treatable. That’s why it is imperative that we better understand the symptoms of the disorders and the behaviors that often accompany thoughts of suicide. With more knowledge, we can often prevent the devastation of losing a loved one.
