There is Hope as you hold on to the Rope of Depression

Thu, 04 Dec 2008 22:35:00 -0800

Dilshad brings research and our society issues in everyday life with Dr. Amina as they discuss..."It's really hard to say that suicide is irrational. To a person who is suicidal, what they're thinking about doing is completely rational," said Stork. "All of the good things in life become less important than the pain you're going through." Responding to a recent UHS survey that reported that nearly half of Harvard College students felt depressed in the last academic year and almost 10 percent had considered suicide, several of the mental health professionals said they thought those figures might be low. "Suicide for college students is the second leading cause of death. That's a very scary statistic," said Jane Lindquist of Good Samaritans of Boston, a suicide prevention center. But it's students' age and developmental stage, not the high-pressure environment of Harvard or any college, that boosts those statistics, said panel moderator Paul Barreira, associate professor of psychiatry at McLean Hospital.
