People who die by suicide are often struggling with mental illness like depression and see it as the only way to escape their pain. While suicide may seem like it will make the suffering stop, it only passes the pain to loved ones and does not actually solve any problems. Anyone considering suicide should seek help from crisis resources instead of harming themselves, as there are always alternatives and treatment options available to improve mental health and reduce suicidal thoughts over time.
