Suicide & Suicidal Feelings
A person can experience despair, distress or loss of hope which can lead to suicidal thoughts or feelings. Suicide describes someone choosing to end their own life. There is no one reason for this; however it is often as a result of depression and reaching a point where they can see no other way to cope.
