A Suicidal Death: What We Should Know About.

I never have a notion or a clue how come people tend to commit suicide and end their young live when living in this challenging world is alright. Have they lost their minds with their problems from peer pressure, expectations, the future and a lot more...

I never knew the reason why some of these hapless individual especially a parent or a loved one asking me questions especially when that person died of a tragic death without leaving a note or anything to say his reason. I can share to you one experience when one of my former student who committed suicide at their home which happened more than a year ago. His parents, friends, colleagues and loved ones were so very anxious and saddened that their son and friend died of a tragic demise and are seeking answers to all the questions that were unanswered. No clues, no note what so ever with his newly bought mobile phone has no telltale sign whatsoever of a leaving something behind. He even inactivated his Facebook account a few hours before he committed suicide and said his last farewell to his 8 year old niece. Sad and tragic

Back in 2006, a high school batch mate and one my first few friends in elementary committed suicide at their home. He hanged himself in the bathroom of their home. Tied in a  Many were shocked about the incident. My friends would tell me he was doing fine on his break-up with his ex-girlfriend. I did not know the reason why he needs to kill himself because it was not the end of the world if their relationship gone into SPLITVILLE. I guess he got to depressed and he couldn't let go of the emotions and feelings which he still has in himself. Maybe he had no friends to talk to or just lost his mind on her ex-girlfriend.


In retrospect, the poor fellow if he was alive how I wish he could still see the batch reunions and gatherings and still live to tell a tale of what had happened with her previous relationship.



Religious views on Suicide

Most Abrahamic religions may it be Christianity, Islam and Judaism consider suicide a sin. But some religions such as belonging to Dharmic religions view it differently like acceptable under circumstances. But for me growing up in a Abrahamic religions it is morbid and sinful.

"The suicide rate among Filipinos has gone up in the last 21 years with the majority of cases involving young people aged 24 years old and below, according to studies according to an National Statistics Office report from Philippine Daily Inquirer (see full report).
