When someone close to you makes a decision to end their own life, there are usually warning signs that they show to friends and family before they commit suicide. Being aware of these warning signs and knowing what to look out for may allow you to intervene and get them help before they act on any suicidal thoughts. These warning signs are not always easy to spot, but a loved one who is considering suicide is most likely exhibiting personality changes and behaviors. Below, are some common personality and behavioral changes that someone who is someone considering suicide may show as a cry for help. Substance abuse Alcohol and drug addiction are two factors that may lead someone to commit suicide. Addicts are more likely to take their own life because not only are they typically depressed, but these vices make them more impulsive. When under the influence of substances, people are typically not willing to ask for help, which could lead them to withdraw from close friends and maybe even attempt suicide. If a loved one is suffering from a drug or alcohol addiction, there are programs out there that can provide them the treatment they need to get better. Withdrawal from loved ones Withdrawing from friends and family is another warning sign of suicide. If someone who was once happy and surrounded by close friends has suddenly wanted to be alone for long periods of time, it could mean that they are considering taking their own life. It’s important to not give up on this person—talk to them and see what thoughts are in their head. If you can’t get through to them, set them up an appointment with a therapist so that they don’t feel alone. Reckless behavior When someone is considering suicide, they may start to act recklessly because they don’t care about living anymore. Suddenly acting promiscuous or driving under the influence can be warning signs that this person is depressed and at a higher risk for ending their life. Consistently acting impulsively without any thought for consequences is a warning sign that they may be struggling with suicidal thoughts. Mental disorders According to Statistics Canada Catalogue, “More than 90% of people who commit suicide have a mental or addictive disorder.” Having bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other mental disorders can contribute to suicidal thoughts. The good news is that if someone close to you is suffering from a psychiatric disorder, getting them treatment drastically lowers their risk of committing suicide. Mood changes Change in behavior is one of the most noticeable warning signs of suicidal thoughts. People who have suicidal thoughts are usually showing mood changes like depression, agitation, loss of interest in activities or hobbies, or anxiety. If these mood changes occur after a painful loss or event, it’s especially concerning. If a person is actively able to manage these mental health changes, this can help prevent suicidal thoughts from occuring. Giving away personal items When someone struggling with depression starts to give away their possessions, that could be a sign that they are thinking of committing suicide. A person who doesn’t want to keep any items that they feel close to may have decided they want to end their life. If you see a loved one who has withdrawn and is giving away everything close to them, it’s important to take it seriously and confront them. This could be a cry for help. It’s not always easy to know when a person close to you is struggling with thoughts of suicide. If you notice any warning signs, it’s important to get them treatment as soon as possible. A professional consultation with a therapist could help them realize that they aren’t ready to follow through with ending their life. by Melissa Howard http://stopsuicide.info/ 1/10/2018 0 Comments MY 2018 READING LISTAs promised, here is the list of books I mentioned in the video and that I wish to read this year :
