Who is a suicidologist and what does he or she do?

First, let's recognize who is a physician suicidologist?

Suicidologist - A clinician who studies suicidal behavior, correlates and causes of suicide. Effective ways to prevent suicidal behavior. Also included in the doctor's task is the goal of teaching the patient's loved ones to recognize and block their suicidal tendencies in time. I work both with the suicidal person and with people from his or her close social circle. This is the only way to promptly and most importantly effectively prevent impending disaster. You will be enough a couple of online consultations a week to correct dangerous behavior and quickly get out of the crisis situation of a suicidal person.

8 myths about suicide.

Below I will list the most common ones suicide mythsthat prevent us from reacting in time and seeking professional help:

1. Suicidal people leave explicit messages (messages) or notes. In reality, very few people do. And often those who do want to be stopped, saved.
2. Or conversely, suicidal people give no warning of their intentions. About 80% suicidal people try to signal, make and leave clues for us about their intentions, but they are very hard to detect and recognize.
3. There is a myth that people who talk about suicide just draw attention to themselves that way. In fact, only 30% of them hide their experiences and intentions. More often they spend a very long time trying to ask for help not only with words but also with their actions.
4. If a person chooses to end his life, there is no saving him. It should be understood that suicide is always escapismnot life. For salvation it is enough to remove the factor that causes suffering and restore the meaning of life.
5. If you improve a suicidal person's mood, the risk of suicide disappears. In reality, almost all suicides occur after the depression has subsided, within 3 months. It's like they're gaining strength before they carry out their intentions.
6. If the first suicide fails, there will be no second attempt. More than 80% suicidal individuals had one or more failed attempts.
7. If a person is depressed, you can't talk to them about suicide. In fact, this conversation can help a person to look at the situation differently and realize his or her problems. If you try hard enough, you may even be able to identify ways to resolve the situation.
8. If the suicide didn't work out, then he didn't want it to. Often a person simply did not have the knowledge and skills to see it through to the end. But this does not affect the seriousness of his intentions.

Who can become suicidal?

Anyone can come to suicide. Usually he prepares for it for a very long time, but sometimes the decision to end his life comes quickly and unexpectedly to those around him. There are a great many reasons that push people to suicide. Here are some of them:

• various addictions (drugs, alcohol, gambling);
• socio-economic hardship (job loss, impoverishment);
• mental illnesses (bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorder);
• Complex illnesses (terminal illnesses, HIV, cancer, Alzheimer's, chronic intolerable pain);
• difficult experiences in difficult life situations (divorce, loss of a loved one, quarrels, domestic violence, bullying).

Various serious illnesses and experiences usually lead to a deliberate suicide, which requires long preparation and is most often planned in secret from loved ones. But addictions and big financial problems can be the trigger for a quick suicide, which is very difficult to foresee and prevent.
