Why do so many people commit suicide during the holidays, especially Christmas??
Question: A friend of mine committed suicide by hanging himself just a few weeks before Christmas a few years ago and there was no outward sign that he was depressed or even thinking about suicide. I'll never forget the thud I heard when the police cut him down. It was scary!
Answers: There is a lot of increased stress during the holidays...be it finacial, family, or loneliness...sometimes it is too much for one to handle and without help can often lead to suicide.
I also wonder why the police there let your friend fall. I am a cop and my fellow officers as for myself are very professional. We would not want the same to happen to our family and friends. The best for you is to remember your friend for who he was and not for what happened.
Suicides are not more frequent during the holidays. It appears that the rates are the highest in April, and in June and July. It is true, however, that if someone is feeling alone, depressed or isolated these feelings often intensify around the holidays.
Sorry to hear about your friend. Please try to talk to a professional mental health or social worker about what happened. Tramatic events take a toll on us without us even being aware of them. Get it out in the open and try to understand that people have moments of weakness and do not think with clarity. my best to you.
bcoz they wish to share those things with others which they dont have and it leads to frustration and depression and ultimately SUICIDE
I can only guess at the extra pressures of Christmas. Mothers feeling they do all the work with no appreciation.
