In the society we find ourselves today, many people have decided to do the unthinkable just to survive the hardships of life.
Our education system is also not helping matters. Some who are in school, are being frustrated by not just hunger and lack, but also by some lecturers who would make outrageous demands all so that the individual can scale through that course.
Recently, I heard of an incidence of a student who took their life! I may not know what may have propelled such an action. Depression? Frustration? Or maybe heart break? Who knows?..
The question here is, how can we stop this from becoming a norm? Where it does not become the only choice available because the truth is, it's not only brain drain that deprives a country from harnessing the potentials of its citizens, suicide does too!
What do you think can be the better option? Your thoughts.
I think it's primarily the brain drain that even gives people this option as a resort to end their sadness. It's obviously unimaginable to our minds how much these people must be going through that they think of putting an end to their lives but still, I feel this should never even be an option with anyone let alone it being the best one. I think there are generally 2-3 reasons as to why people do it. First and foremost and the most prominent reason I have seen is the financial losses. Sometimes people end up suffering such huge financial losses that they are unable to cope with the fact of repaying that. They know that no matter what happens there is no way they can repay all of it and this is going to end only with their lives, I think this is really stoppable as the government could bring easy insolvency declaration mechanisms so that people can at least declare themselves insolvent and seek protection, so I think to some extent this reason is actually avoidable, other reasons like the family issues and other tragedies are to some extent difficult to control but one should always keep the culture of seeking a psychic help in their families open.
