Good day my beloved friends in steemit platform, I am glad to be one of the participants of this wonderful contest organized by @abdullahw2, and the title of the contest is Suicide is The Last Solution.

Things have been happening in this world, and it seems so terrible to people whereby they decide to die rather than being alive to face the consequences, which am going to talk about in this contest. Let dive into the matter.

What are the main factors that lead individuals to view suicide as a solution?

As I have said before, there are so many things that can happen to someone and it leads to suicide. People can view suicide as solution to situations because of the consequences that may follow to their life at the next point.

Here am going to list some factors that can leads individuals to view suicide as a solution

1. Death: my point of view from here is that, love ones may die untimely, either parent died and leave the children, or husband dieing and leave the wife, or even wife death and leave the husband. All this are death situation of love ones, which may make the others who are alive to feel they can't do without the dead ones, and they view suicide as the solution.

2. Betrayal: this is another reason why people may view suicide as solution, because when very close friend which they might have trusted so much, betrayed them, this can lead individuals to committing suicide.

3. Unsuccessful: many people view them self as if they are not succeeding in life, they think everything is against them, they life are miserable, they don't have anything in life, they haven't succeeded in all what they have tried in life, anything they tried will just end unsuccessfully. This can makr some feel so frustrated and decided suicide as solution to their life.

4. Killing case: sometimes mistakenly or purposely someone kill another person and it happens that he or she was caught, and the punishment that may be applied will be so big for the person to face and decided to take suicide as the best solution.

5. Case of robbery: another situation that may lead to suicide is a case of robbery, some may have been robbed his or her life savings, either through fraudster, or ponzi scheme investment, or physical thieves that robbed physically, all this are situation whereby someone decide suicide as solution.

What role can mental health education play in preventing suicide?

Education can help in preventing or reducing the rate of suicide in our world today.

When there is provision of mental health education it can help, because there are some people who are not mentally stable and they need mentor, they need to know what's right to choose at some certain point in life.

People should be educated to know that suicide are not the best solution to situations in life, people are to be encouraged in life no matter the situation.

With the help of encouragement, adequate education, guidance etc. it can help in reducing the rate of suicide commitment in our society.

So it is advisable to create a means of education to mental health in our society today for people to be secured from committing suicide.

Good education should be available against suicide

How will you motivate a person to prevent him from suicidal thoughts?

The best motivation to a person who have chosen suicide as the solution is to encourage them that tomorrow carries greater things than today.

When people realize that everything that happens today is not the last condition. There is a saying No condition is permanent when they are aware that every bad condition that suicide is the solution, can be change and it will also be better tomorrow, it will help to motivate people that suicide is not the best solution to their life situation.

Difficult days are bound to come, but it doesn't mean we take suicide as the best solution.

Describe a time when someone overcame suicidal thoughts and found new purpose in life.

It has always been happening everywhere, people who changed their minds from suicide become and life a better life in future.

Sometimes when the devil have seen how tomorrow will be greater, he will try in different ways to terminate your bright future by bring difficulties today that may makes an individual to choose suicide as the best solution.

Like in the case of Job in the bible, when God gave Satan the chance to torment and destroy Job's wealth. He was so tormented by Satan, and all his wealth was gone, his property where vanished, Job that was the richest man of his time became the poorest, but he never feel discourage.

It came to a time were his wife told him to cause God and die (suicide) which is another way of suicide, and Job insisted, believing God for a better tomorrow, it works for him.

After all the poverty, sickness, dangers and lot of bad things that happened to Job all became well with him. Job started becoming healthy and wealthy after the long time torment by Satan.

In the future Job became more wealthy than even how he was in the time past, he became 100x more better than before. This is the power of not giving up when things become hard, it will give back in double portion.
