When is World Suicide Prevention Day? Most people can adjust their mentality through self-regulation, but some people may fall into depression. In order to prevent people from making irrational behaviors, WHO has specially set up World Suicide Prevention Day. What time?

When is World Suicide Prevention Day1September 2003 10 was designated as the first World Suicide Prevention Day by the World Health Organization to help the public understand the risk factors that induce suicide, enhance people's ability to cope with bad life events and prevent suicide. In order to attract public attention to suicide.

There is only one right to life. The reasons why suicides choose such an extreme way to treat life are complicated, but one thing is certain: love is a good medicine for suicides to pull back from the brink.

The World Health Organization and the International Suicide Prevention Association called on governments, suicide prevention associations and institutions, local communities, medical workers and volunteers to join various local actions that day to raise public awareness of the importance of suicide and reduce the suicide rate. The slogan of the first World Suicide Prevention Day was "Too many suicides".

Nearly 800,000 people commit suicide every year, and there are more than 20 suicide attempts behind every suicide death. Suicide is also the third leading cause of death for children aged 15- 19. Suicide is a tragedy, which will affect the family, the community and the whole country, and will have a lasting impact on the relatives and friends of the deceased.

Many people who want to commit suicide or attempt suicide will not ask for help because of shame, so they can't get the help they need. Due to the lack of understanding of suicide, and many countries and regions are taboo to discuss this issue openly, the suicide problem has not been properly handled.

Suicide can be prevented, but it needs the participation of everyone, community and country. Let's strengthen our understanding of suicide, break taboos and save lives.

When is World Suicide Prevention Day? According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, nearly 800,000 people commit suicide every year, which is equivalent to one person taking his own life every 40 seconds. The global prevalence of depression is as high as 5%- 12%, among which 15% patients commit suicide. According to the World Health Organization, in 2020, depression will become the second largest source of disease burden in the world after coronary heart disease. The prevalence of depression in China is 3.59%, of which the prevalence of depression reaches 2. 1%. In other words, there are nearly 30 million depression patients in China, most of whom will have suicidal thoughts. Early identification and timely standardized treatment can improve the prognosis of depression to the greatest extent.

Stay healthy and pay attention to your inner needs.

Nowadays, the pressure of social competition is greater than in the past, but most people have not systematically learned how to adjust their mentality and how to deal with these social pressures that suddenly increase with age when they are young. Ding Juan said that mental health problems are gradually emerging when the pressure cannot be relieved, but most people remain indifferent or feel humiliated and fail to face the problems caused by mental health in time.

Working too long will also make people have insufficient leisure time to immerse themselves in intimate interaction with family and friends, and even some people don't have enough time to sleep. The main function of sleep is to eliminate fatigue, restore physical strength, protect the brain and restore energy. If this process is delayed, people will easily go wrong. Su Chao specifically mentioned "consumerism" and "spoiled and arranged in childhood" here. Consumerism will affect people to spend more spare time on improving their work-related abilities, thus making more money or becoming famous, but are these really what they need? Often most people will ignore their real inner needs. Children who are spoiled when they are young and arrange things are mostly accustomed to doing whatever they want, so when they grow up, they will have more desires to drive their behavior. In fact, they have neglected their inner needs because they are loyal to their own desires rather than their hearts. The heavy pressure of modern society and the psychological inertia of family background are the causes of mental health problems and even depression.

Face up to "warning" and refuse to "deceive others"

During the epidemic, Beijing Hongfeng Women's Psychological Counseling Service Center opened a public psychological counseling hotline to fight the epidemic. From June 30th 65438+ to July 3rd1,* * * answered nearly 8000 consultation calls.

In the interview, Ding Juan talked about a set of survey data: only about 15% people have no psychological problems in their lifetime. But now only a few people really care about their mental health.

Nowadays, people often say "I don't want to live" and "Forget it when I die". How can we judge whether they like to talk about these words jokingly or whether they really have this idea and momentum in their hearts? Just because he has the idea of suicide verbally doesn't mean that he will really carry it out. He may simply need to vent or seek help from others. So what is the real suicidal idea? It reflects the subjective cognitive level of this person, and the conclusion is that there is no way to deal with the current problem, and this problem must be dealt with. In other words, they have been depressed and have no way out, but they have to force themselves to solve the problem. At this time, it is easy to commit suicide, that is, the risk of suicide with serious emotional disorders is high. Not only depression, bipolar disorder, alcohol dependence, anxiety, anorexia nervosa, schizophrenia, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and borderline personality disorder are all psychological problems with high suicide risk.

Walk hand in hand to prevent suicide and treat life well.

Then, when there is a "warning" in body and mind, should we pay attention to the problems in our mental health? Li Chao summed up ten criteria for us to pass mental health.

First, we must have a full sense of security. Second, we should fully understand ourselves and be able to make an appropriate evaluation of our abilities. The third is to be realistic in life, not to pursue something unrealistic. Fourth, keep in touch with the real environment and don't isolate yourself, such as not interacting with people or society. Fifth, we should maintain the harmony of personality. Sixth, we must have the ability to learn from experience, constantly reflect, and make progress and success in reflection. Seventh, you can maintain good interpersonal relationships. Eighth, we should have moderate emotional expression and control, and be able to adjust negative emotions in time. Ninth, we should be aware of our basic needs and meet them appropriately without violating social norms. Tenth, under the premise of collective requirements, give full play to individual personality.

When is World Suicide Prevention Day? If someone tells you something like the following, don't take it seriously. These may be distress signals sent by them before committing suicide. Reasonable reaction and enlightenment may save a life.

1, direct or indirect expressions in speech, such as: "It is too painful to live, it is a burden to my family, and I don't want to persist"; "My problem can't be solved, no one can help me, and everyone will be better without me" and so on.

Or talk about things related to suicide, joke about suicide, and talk about suicide plans, including the method, date and place of suicide.

2. Emotional manifestations, such as despair, anxiety, depression and feeling out of control, are all risk factors for suicide; Anger, guilt, loneliness, sadness and helplessness are also common emotional experiences.

3. Behavior: distributing finances, saying goodbye to others, giving precious things, alienating family and friends, drinking and taking drugs, being extremely reckless and impulsive, suddenly calming down after severe depression, etc.

4. Some physiological changes, such as lack of interest, loss of appetite, poor health and sleep problems.

Suicide is not a sudden idea. After experiencing despair, suicides often choose to commit suicide when they are helpless. Under such circumstances, there seems to be no choice but to end his own life. However, the world is not very gentle to people who have suicidal thoughts, and there are still countless misunderstandings about suicide that prevent people in the abyss from seeking and getting help. People often have many misunderstandings about suicide.
