competition, defeats, losses, and poverty in the current economic system, which
motivates individuals to commit suicide.

In addition, young people face suicide, competitiveness in education, parental
coercion, and various addictions, such as drug and pornography, as well as online

game addiction, as another social factor in youth suicide. It is a common trend in
today's society for young girls to ruin their lives. In addition, many sufferers of
chronic diseases can also be mentioned as people who are trying to save lives. All

this is due to the fact that the person who is living in the present does not have
sufficient knowledge to understand the good and bad. However, there are many
factors that contribute to the suicidal ideation of man. These suicides have taken place

04. Psychological Factors

Psychologists believe that social factors as well as psychological factors influence

suicide. Accordingly, any person can face various psychological problems in the face
of social distress. However, at any given time in a person, stressors cause a

breakdown in thoughts. In the face of that, mental illnesses occur. In the case of a
serious mental illness, the person's only intention is to ruin his life. Accordingly, one
must be devoted to his or her own safety, just as he is diagnosed and treated for serious

mental illness. Depression, schizophrenia and personality disorders can be described
as a severe mental illness that promotes suicide. Thus, as individuals in society, at
least some people should know the nature and characteristics of mental illness.

However, due to the lack of proper knowledge about mental illness, it is also
important that one does not know about the mental stress of another person until he
or she commits suicide. So let's discuss below how psychological factors affect it.
