The truth is that a lot of mental illness comes from lack of money. As long as the current economic system reigns supreme there will be a huge segment of the population stuck in real poverty. Financial stress causes constant stress to your brain until you reach a breaking point.

I strongly disagree with you, Meanwhile the highest suicidal rate in Asia is Japan considering the fact that they are one of the richest country in Asia therefore the idea alone is already invalid. On the other hand Philippines only have less than 4% knowing also the fact that this is one of the countries who has a lot of poor people.

The real problem here is the lack of two A's

Appreciation and Acceptance = Appreciate what you have, Accept what you no longer / don't have

Its is definitely a good idea if you are lucky enough to have a support network to talk to people closer to you, but also theres options of Samaritans and the benefit of strangers online you can trust that it wont be used against you in anyway and theres no judgment . Indeed a problem shared is a problem halved .

Youre a decent person for taking the time to talk to your friend and reassure her of having at least one supportive person. It can make all of the difference.

There are indeed people who were taking advantage of the struggling person. I did it because I have too and since I am the only one who noticed it plus I know how it feels then I just feel the responsibility to take action
