Suicide

sucide

Suicide is a really tough subject to talk about, but it's important to understand what it means. When someone takes their own life, it's called suicide. This usually happens when they're feeling overwhelmed by emotional pain , dealing with problems that may seem impossible to solve and can't handle what's going on in their life anymore.

Self-Harm

Self-Harm

Self-harm is a challenging and deeply personal experience where someone intentionally hurts themselves as a way to cope with overwhelming emotions like sadness, anger, or hopelessness. 

Sometimes people think that self-harm is just for attention or to manipulate others, but that’s not true. It’s a serious issue that comes from deep emotional pain and not knowing healthy ways to cope. It’s not about getting attention, but about trying to deal with really tough feelings in a harmful way.
