Frequently Asked Questions

Why won't anyone talk about suicide?

Frequently Asked Questions - Voices of Hope : KUED 7
It's a very uncomfortable subject. We, as adults, are afraid that if we do discuss suicide, it will give kids ideas to hurt themselves. In reality, the research shows that most kids who are suicidal have already considered it as an option. Keeping in touch with your kids, knowing who their friends are and in frequent communication with the parents of friends will help a parent identify any significant changes in a teenager’s day-to-day behavior and activity.

None. Refusing to teach students how to ask for help when they need it and not teaching adults how to respond to a request for help may lead to liability issues in the future.

Why are we not allowed to talk about suicide or self harm in the chatroom or forums?

Because there are a lot of very young visitors to our room, and parents sometimes get quite upset for their children being exposed to that type of talk, especially if it gives them ideas of how they could hurt themselves.

The trainers won't even talk to me. What do I do?

Are people who talk about or attempt suicide just trying to get attention?

Maine Youth Suicide Prevention Program: About Suicide: Frequ...
People who talk about or attempt suicide need immediate attention. They are trying to call attention to what they are experiencing as extreme emotional pain. Many believe that we should ignore these "cries for help" and "attention getting behaviors" because the attention will only encourage the behaviors. Suicidal individuals are trying to get attention the same way people shout if they are drowning, or are injured.

What is the difference between euthanasia and assisted suicide?

International Task Force - FAQs
One way to distinguish them is to look at the last act – the act without which death would not occur. Using this distinction, if a third party performs the last act that intentionally causes a patient’s death, euthanasia has occurred. For example, giving a patient a lethal injection or putting a plastic bag over her head to suffocate her would be considered euthanasia. On the other hand, if the person who dies performs the last act, assisted suicide has taken place.

What about suicide?

Foundation of Schozophrenic Patients
People with schizophrenia attempt suicide much more often than people in the general population. About 10 percent (especially younger adult males) succeed. It is hard to predict which people with schizophrenia are prone to suicide, so if someone with schizophrenia talks about or tries to commit suicide, professional help should be sought right away.

Since suicide isn't against the law, why should it be illegal to help someone commit suicide?

Euthanasia: Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Answer: Neither suicide nor attempted suicide are criminalized anywhere in the United States or in many other countries, but not because of any "right" to suicide. When penalties against attempted suicide were removed, legal scholars made it clear that this was not done for the purpose of permitting suicide. Instead it was intended to prevent suicide.

Why won't you talk to people in depth before they get any of your courses?

Frequently Asked Questions on Bipolar Disorder
Because 99.9% of the things that they want to talk about is covered in one of my courses. Plus, it's much easier to talk to people after they've gone through my course as opposed to talking for an hour over the phone. I have found that when I spend up to 2 hours on the phone with someone, they retain little to none of the information I tell them anyway. You need to get the audio tapes and written materials and review them to absorb the information, just like the way it works at school.

Why do I occasionally think of committing suicide (even though I know I will probably not do that)?

Frequently Asked Questions
If you're asking the question, it is possible that you might be bipolar. If you are experiencing any signs, call your doctor right away. The doctor will probably have you get in touch with a good psychiatrist or psychologist. When you have your appointment be sure to tell the doctor what all of your symptoms are. Don’t leave anything out. It may not seem significant to you, but it may be to your psychiatrist. This will help you in the screening process.

WHY DO I OCCASIONALLY THINK OF SUICIDE (EVEN THOUGH I KNOW I WILL PROBABLY NOT DO THAT)?

Frequently Asked Questions
Suicidal thoughts are not a threat to your health in and of themselves, but a big concern to you as the person having these thoughts. To a certain extent, having suicidal thoughts (also called "suicidal ideation") is a part of being bipolar. Don't kick yourself for having them. Having said that -- take these thoughts seriously. Given the nature of this illness, people with bipolar disorder are at a much higher risk in terms of suicide than other people. So err on the side of caution.
