Theme of World Suicide Prevention Day Publicity Activities

No matter what age, people may lose hope in life, so there are not a few people who choose to commit suicide from childhood to old age. People can go to heaven if they die naturally, but they will go to hell if they choose to die. Here I have compiled some publicity materials about the characteristics of suicide, hoping that everyone will stay away from suicide.

The main characteristics of college students' suicide behavior

Judging from the way of suicide.

Suicide mode depends on the lethality, availability and acceptability of mode selection. Cases in recent years show that college students commit suicide mainly by jumping off buildings, taking drugs (or taking drugs). On the one hand, college students live in a high-rise environment, and it is an easy choice to commit suicide by falling from a height. On the other hand, the management of deadly drugs such as pesticides and sleeping pills is not in place, and individuals can easily buy or obtain them.

Judging from the inducement of suicide

Epidemiological and research data show that the causes of suicide are complicated. The main causes of suicide in China are family relations, marital disputes, disharmony in interpersonal relationships and mental disorders. Based on the investigation of college students' psychological crisis, we can see that the causes of college students' suicide are academic pressure, emotional entanglement, interpersonal crisis, employment pressure, pessimism and world-weariness, among which boys commit suicide because of academic pressure and girls commit suicide because of love problems. Here, negative life events often become the fuse of suicide, especially the continuous accumulation of negative life events will suddenly increase the psychological pressure of college students. When this pressure exceeds a certain threshold, it will inevitably bring serious consequences. When college students have "sudden and significant changes in behavior, language expression, interpersonal relationship, mood and mood, repeated stay in dangerous areas, physical and behavioral changes, etc." They should pay close attention to it.

Judging from the motive of suicide.

Situation, conation, emotion, cognition, interpersonal relationship and continuity are the six dimensions of suicide. The situation is manifested in unbearable psychological pain and frustration of psychological needs; Belief is manifested as suicide, in order to find a solution to the problem, interrupt consciousness; Emotion is despair and helplessness, and the attitude towards suicide is contradictory; Cognitive performance is the distortion of cognitive attitude towards suicide; Interpersonal relationship shows that people want to communicate with others and find a way out; Continuity is characterized by lifelong coping style. Individual suicide can be perceived from six dimensions. Because of this, it provides an available space for suicide crisis intervention. The intrinsic motivation of college students' suicidal behavior also reflects these characteristics.

Judging from the motive of suicide.

The characteristic of college students' suicide is romanticism, and the general motives of suicide are impulsiveness, depression, disappointment and decadence. In fact, college students are at a critical stage of psychological development, with great ideological fluctuations and emotional ups and downs, some emotional impulses, some withdrawn and depressed, some pessimistic and disappointed, and some spiritual decadence. Various psychological conflicts are often intertwined, not just a single type of motivation, but a comprehensive type.

So why do college students commit suicide? The reasons for suicide are very complicated, and any suicide has a reason. These reasons are ultimately related to psychological problems, but they also have their own particularity, which is determined by the psychological characteristics of college students.

Three Unique Features of China's Suicide

Faced with severe social, economic and psychological pressure, anyone may choose to commit suicide to end his life because he is overwhelmed. However, China's unique suicide characteristics have aroused widespread concern in the international community:

The suicide rate in rural areas is three times that in cities. According to the data of 1998 National Health Statistics Annual Report, the suicide rates of rural and urban population in China are 20.511and 6.22/ 1 respectively. The suicide rate of rural elderly is higher, and the difference between urban and rural elderly is as high as five times. According to expert analysis, most farmers in our country have strong pesticides in their homes, so it is very common to commit suicide by taking pesticides. Because this method is fatal, and there is a lack of well-trained medical personnel who can effectively rescue pesticide poisoning in rural areas, many people who take poison on impulse commit suicide.

◆ The suicide rate of women is higher than that of men. China is one of the few countries that report that the suicide rate of women is higher than that of men. According to the figures provided by Beijing Psychological Crisis Research and Intervention Center, every year in China, 6,543.8+0.57 million women die of suicide, and another 6,543.8+0.5 million women attempt suicide. Suicide has become the leading cause of death for young women in rural areas of China, accounting for more than 30% of the total number of deaths. Xu Weihua, director of the Women's Rights and Interests Protection Department of the All-China Women's Federation, pointed out that arranged marriages and low social status often lead rural women into an unavoidable predicament and lead to a dead end. Female suicide often makes children victims. The number of children affected by suicide in China has become 1.35 million every year.

◆13 of the suicides and 2/3 of the attempted suicides had no mental disorder when committing suicide. In contrast, in almost all other countries, more than 90% of suicides are mental patients. A case-control study on attempted suicide in China showed that only 38% of those who attempted suicide had mental disorders. In China, severe stress caused by acute life events is more likely to lead to suicide. Canadian scholar Fei Li Peng believes that because there is no strong legal ban on suicide in China, when people are stimulated by a long-term bad life, they may regard suicide as an acceptable way to relieve their pain and family burden. In this "tolerant" environment, those groups with weak social support systems will have impulsive suicide behavior under acute pressure.

Deep analysis of the causes of suicide

From a deeper perspective, the causes of suicide can also be divided into the following categories:

1, insecure

Fall into extreme fear. This fear is stronger than the fear of death. Sometimes to escape punishment. This fear is generally a short-lived phenomenon. If suicide is attempted, the suicidal person often regrets the suicidal behavior and hopes that the suicidal impulse can be suppressed in time.

The prevention of this kind of suicide can be started from two aspects: ① eliminating unnecessary fears, but it is difficult to implement, such as whether psychologists arrive in time and whether fears can be eliminated in time; ② Behavior restriction, preventing him from committing suicide, can eliminate suicidal thoughts after he calms down, which is the most effective and recommended by gopla.

2. Loss of social belonging

This is usually because:

(1) Feeling abandoned, abandoned by social organizations or social groups, abandoned by lovers/partners (including widowed people), abandoned by relatives (including bereaved mothers and children), etc. Sometimes the failure of social role-playing will also lead to the feeling of being abandoned, and when the mood is extreme, there may be the feeling of being abandoned by the whole society;

(2) Being opposed and restricted, such as losing freedom;

(3) The request is rejected;

4 behavior, mood, thoughts, etc. Not understood;

⑤ Social orientation is vague or uncertain, such as unemployment and development demand alienation.

Losing the sense of social belonging often leads people to lose their coordinates and frame of reference in society, which leads to despair. Sometimes worrying about losing social belonging, or predicting that you will lose your social status, may also induce suicide.

The prevention of this kind of suicide is mainly:

(1) Let them feel that they are needed, which is the simplest realization and recommended by gopla;

② It is the best choice to strengthen one's social affiliation and social relations in one or more aspects such as parents and children, which is also recommended by gopla;

3 recognize their achievements and help them regain their confidence;

(4) Help them plan their lives and reposition themselves appropriately;

⑤ Rationalizing external phenomena, such as being abandoned is an inevitable realistic result under certain conditions, and the feeling of being abandoned is just an illusion and illusion. The latter three methods should be carried out under the guidance of experts.

3, painful suffering

Painful torture may come from body and mind, sometimes both. In order to alleviate or even terminate the pain, it is possible to choose suicide.

Psychological pain can be relieved and eliminated through psychological counseling or psychotherapy. However, there is no effective way to deal with physical pain, such as the torture of diseases, except for disease treatment, painkillers (even drugs) and nociceptive nerve block. Especially if you are troubled by the cost of treatment or the diagnosis of terminal illness, the problem will become quite complicated. At present, more and more calls for euthanasia in society are also aimed at these patients.

4. Life is monotonous without challenges.

Many people who lose interest in life are trapped in monotonous repetition of daily life and can't find a life. Some of them do live a monotonous life, but the constraints of various conditions (especially their own minds) make them afraid to face the challenge of competition, and gradually wear away the freshness of life year after year. Some of their lives are actually very rich, but they can't get the feeling of rich life because they are not good at experience.

This kind of suicide prevention is to let them learn to live.

5. Environmental and pharmaceutical factors

Normal physiological activities of human body are carried out in certain internal and external environment. Some environments that are not conducive to health, as well as the body fluid environment caused by drugs and nutritional problems, often cause physical and psychological obstacles, such as abnormal nervous excitement, hallucinations, depression and so on. These are also the direct causes of some suicides. The prevention of this kind of suicide is to optimize the environment, balance nutrition, eliminate the side effects of drugs, and even avoid taking drugs.

6. Specific motives

Specific motivation is the product of will. This is often the product of thought, culture and custom. These specific motives mainly include: ① interest exchange, suicide will bring benefits to other members of social organizations, including collective or sacrificial suicide such as praying for God's blessing and calming God's anger, and suicide caused by most political, military and economic reasons; (2) another expected transformation of life, such as suicide and liberation. ; (3) retaliatory suicide, causing great harm or loss of interests to members of other social organizations, such as anti-social self-explosion; (4) Voluntary choice in the randomness of death, such as betting on who will die first (revolver, sleeping pills, etc.). ), duel, death game (mainly jungle game), etc. ⑤ Alienation of world outlook and values, such as thinking that suicide is a kind of freedom and suicide is sublime.

This kind of suicide is often the result of brainwashing, and its prevention begins with anti-brainwashing, helping them rebuild their reasonable motives.

7. mental illness

Schizophrenia, depression, personality disorder and other mental diseases can all lead to suicide. The treatment of these mental diseases is the best way to solve the problem.

8. Pretend to commit suicide

Behavior is essentially an accident. Many suicides have no motive to commit suicide, and their original intention is not suicide. However, due to improper operation, some dangerous behaviors (high mortality rate) become actual suicides. These behaviors mainly include: ① pursuing near-death experience; (2) Threatening suicide to achieve a specific goal; 3 suffocation pleasure; ④ Speed impulse, high-altitude stimulation experience and adventure stimulation often attract people to extreme sports, such as crazy racing and extreme rock climbing. Cognitive therapy should be used to fully reveal the risks of these risky behaviors, and then let them analyze the gains and losses and make a new choice. Gopla does not recognize these behaviors.
