1. According to statistics from the World Health Organization, more than 800,000 people die from suicide every year, which is equivalent to one person taking his or her own life every 40 seconds. And there are far more people who want to commit suicide than those who succeed in doing so. One data shows that for every adult suicide, there may be more than 20 people who attempt suicide.

2. Although there is no necessary connection between depression and suicide, people with depression are indeed at high risk of suicide. The core symptom of depression is low mood, and feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and incompetence appear on the basis of low mood. If in this situation, sudden events such as widowhood, divorce, layoffs, business failure, etc. occur, suicidal behavior is often easy to occur.

3. Most people who have suicidal thoughts have some pain that cannot be eliminated. Sometimes they may be able to explain this pain, but sometimes they may not. What others can do is to "see and acknowledge his pain."

4. "Although this world is not perfect, there are always people protecting you." When you have suicidal thoughts, you may wish to seek help from professional psychiatric assessment and diagnosis, psychological counseling and treatment, which may be of great help.
