Suicide And Attempted Suicide Becoming A Concern

Reports of suicide and attempted suicide cases are once again becoming a concern and we are requesting those facing any form of emotional problems to know that there is always a solution to their troubles.

As of today suicide cases stand at 6 compared to 5 for the same period last year while attempted suicide 8 compared to 6

Another two attempted suicide cases were reported in the Western Division recently and with the reasons linked to relationship problems, we are stressing the importance of dialogue.

There are also institutions that can offer assistance or are willing to give counseling in times of difficult situations.

People are different and will handle situations differently and while some situations might be difficult to handle, please know that resorting to such drastic measures is never a solution as there is always someone who is willing to listen and help.
