On one beautiful summers day, he hung by the neck. Wearing his best clothes, all black from head to toe. In the background playing, in a loop, is the song “Goodbye Cruel World” by Pink Floyd.
He hangs peacefully, his soul is at rest.
On the chair he used to stand on is a short letter:
This act was not out of despair or depression. What is the reason of this act? Was it due to loneliness?
It was a rationale act that can be attributed solely to the world around us. This world is sick from within, people have lost sight of what truly matters, and we are evolving into a race that will surely self destruct. By living in this world the feelings and fact arose that I was no better than everyone else and that I along with everyone else was contributing to this feverish sickness.
In retort to loneliness, everyone is alone. In the end there is only yourself and yourself alone. People mask this loneliness with social constructs of peace and happiness. But that is all it is, a mask, a lie. The hones truth is we would save certain people from danger at all costs but this is not done out of Love for them, it is a primal instinct, the same as an animal. The human race is no better than the dogs or cats we care for. We pretend to be with our lavish designs and wondrous abilities. But instead of using these gifts we waste them on useless tools such as weapons and pointless ideologies.
Through this act I have touched the other side. I now know the truth of the universe, all that is real and all that is a lie. If God exists I believe that he will forgive for he knows the deepest truths.
Do not despair about this act and the loss, live happy and free knowing that I entered this situation with a smile. There is nothing you could have done and no way you could have changed the result. All that could be said it was time. Your life is ahead of you, cherish the time we had and do not worry yourself. This is not my demise but a beginning of the next stage.
Peace and Love
Dead Soul

Suicide in Brief
bm8gd2hpdGUgc3BhY2UgYmVsb3c/IGJhc2U2NA==
Before one can look at ways to prevent suicide, one must look at the factors which are involved that lead to suicidal attempts. If these signs are identified then there is an increase in probability that a suicidal attempt can be thwarted. There is usually more than one factor involved in a suicide attempt. The different factors can be broken into three sections; long term, short term and social demographic.
The main long term factor is previous suicide attempt as 10-15% of those who have attempted one before will die from another attempt later in their life.2 It is clear that one who attempts suicide before has a problem that must be fixed otherwise the likelihood will be they will try again. People who have substance abuse problems are also at a higher risk especially those who abuse alcohol. Alcohol is a depressant and increases the chances of acting on suicidal thoughts (Rich et al 1986). Physical illness where the patient is in constant pain or is immobilised to the extent of social withdrawal also increases suicidal thoughts and attempts.
Short term factors that are coupled with long term factors greatly increase suicide attempts. Factors such as work problems, being rejected, loss and relationship quarrels are the leading scenarios that are associated with suicide. These factors on their own may have a high risk factor but it is where one or more of these factors are associated with a long term factor is where the increase occurs. It is due to the increased stress from these events that lead to the suicidal attempts.
The social demographic shows the groups which are at higher risk then others; these include age, sex, marital status and occupation. It is known that males are at higher risk of suicide than females. This might be due to less the fact less males seek help than females or females self harm rather attempt suicide. The age factor shows that from 15 - 30 suicide deaths are a lot higher compared to other ages. People whose occupation is stressful are also at higher risk. Therefore a person who is male, aged between 15 -30 has alcohol problems, attempted suicide before, is single and recently suffered a loss in the family has a very high risk of a suicidal attempt. With these factors been known one can now try to prevent a suicidal attempt but people who have suicidal thoughts may want anonymous help. This where suicide organisations are
important but do they help in the long term?
