Personality disorder, alcoholic behaviour or financial constraints, perhaps might appear to be the reasons enough to end the agony of life. But the real agony of life lies in the second life after the suicide attempt. By consuming any kind of poison, the chances of paralysis, peripheral nerve damage, loss of sensation, lever problems, blindness etc. are very positive.

“ Sometimes, due to the acid contained in poison, suicide survivor may lose their voice permanently, sleeping pills can impair one’s cognitive function. There is an increase in the number of elder attempting suicide, due to financial constraints,” Dr. Vasantha Kamath, Head of Medicine Department of Victoria Hospital said.

What happens when a suicide attempt fails? Perhaps an easy way out to escape from the bad phase of life turns out to be a living nightmare. In most cases the suicide survivor is found in coma and the family undergoes a huge financial burden. “Apart from the physical problems, mental stress of facing family and society after the suicide attempt is painful,” Dr. Vani Prabha, Psychologist at Victoria Hospital said.

Today it may feel like the hardest day of your life, you may be finding it difficult to coupe up, but then opting for an easy way out to escape from life might be a regret of you life forever.
