Random Comments By Others On The Issue Of Suicide

10 September every year is marked as World Suicide Prevention Day


Cross, a Nigerian entertainer, revealed that he attempted taking his own life twice. Cross, who was speaking on a task titled “Mental health” urged the Nigerian health sector to take the issue of mental health seriously as a means of alleviating suicide attempts. He blamed Nigerian parents for not being serious about their children’s mental health, expressing hope of doing his best when he becomes a father. He said, “I have attempted to commit suicide twice but at the end of the day, I survived it. “I think we need physicians in this country to be serious about the issue. Our parents are not really doing enough regarding talking to children to diagnose their mental health. I will be a father one day, maybe one or two years to come but I just hope that I give my children the best”.

In reaction online, readers commented that:


"All these lies, because he wants people to notice him."
--------
Suicide is NEVER an option. Always make people around you happy cos the Nigeria is enough to make people feel depressed.
--------
He looks happy always and having all his family even his mother in Canada, money no suppose be problem.
--------
Just wondering what could make him try such?
Mental health is something that is rarely taken seriously on this side of the globe.
--------
We have a lot of psychopaths and narcissists walking about, not excluding folks with PTSD, chronic depression, personality disorders, etc.
--------
The worst part is that these individuals are unaware of their nature, making it even harder to seek help.
You hear stories of gruesome murder, and wonder how someone could get the nerve to smith with a kitchen knife.
You forgot to ask if these murderers are actually normal people. Alas, they are always diagnosed with one mental illness or the other.
--------
If they had been confiscated earlier in one mental facility upon diagnose, that would save the society from mayhem.
If you come from a poor home, there's a huge chance you even have one or two mental illness you don't know about.
It could even explain why you're so damn lazy, or why you rarely get things done, or remain focus.
I believe if you understand your mental state, you can achieve anything you put your mind to.
--------
Get a therapist, take care of your mind!
--------
Suicide is not the option no matter what
--------
Don't let it look as if you are the only one that have attempted suicide
--------
Life is worthwhile when there are good memories to cling on to else it's worthless.
--------
death is better than some situations just pray u dont get face wth that kind of situations.

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...
