SUICIDE IN YOUNG MEN

The rate of depression in males has dramatically increased over the past few years. One lamentable effect of this rise is the increase of suicide rates, particularly among younger men.

Men are more vulnerable to committing suicide than women because men, in an effort to uphold their image, supress their feelings and ignore the fact that depression is slowly eating away at their mind.

Governments have started to look into this so called "generational phenomenon". They have also started to plan some initiatives, including the different support that these young men can access to prevent or reduce the suicide rate.

CAN DEPRESSION BE TREATED?

Fortunately, depression can be treated. However, in order for it to be treated in time, people must not remain ignorant about it. Instead, they should be aware of the consequences that follow should nothing be done. Care should also be taken with other substances ingested, as research has shown that in many depression cases, alcohol and drug abuse have been the cause of further complications.

Don't wait to become a statistic of suicide - talk to someone now.

Quotes from the Team at Stress Management
~ to help you relieve stress in your life ~

Blame is a senseless action. You are the master of your own destiny, you can achieve whatever you desire and the only force that stands in your way is your own fear. So utilise your power to decide and do it!
