Myths and facts about suicide

Myth: Suicide is always due to mental illness.

Fact: Most people have thought of suicide from time to time and not all people who die by suicide have mental health problems. Suicidal behavior indicates deep unhappiness but not necessarily a mental illness.

Myth: People who talk about suicide aren’t serious and won’t go through with it.

Fact: People who kill themselves have often told someone that they do not feel life is worth living or that they have no future. Some may have actually said they want to die. Someone talking about suicide is a cry for help, it’s vitally important to take anybody who talks about feeling suicidal seriously. The majority of people who feel suicidal do not actually want to die; they do not want to live the life they have.

Myth: Once a person has made a serious suicide attempt, that person is unlikely to make another.

Fact: People who have tried to end their lives before are significantly more likely to make another attempt.

Myth: If a person is serious about killing themselves then there is nothing you can do.

Myth: Talking about suicide may give someone the idea to try it.

Fact: Suicide can be a taboo topic in society. Often, people feeling suicidal don’t want to worry or burden anyone with how they feel and so they don’t discuss it.

Once someone starts talking they’ve got a better chance of discovering other options to suicide.
