Please excuse my English as it's not my main language. Fortunately, modern web translators are advanced enough to automatically translate entire sites, giving me access to a wealth of opinions and information I've wanted to explore for a long time. This includes topics like CTB.
To get to the point, this post in the recovery sector aims to address what I consider one of the first rungs in the ladder of suicidal ideation: UNEMPLOYMENT.
I believe suicidal motivation functions similarly to Maslow's pyramid, but with different components. It's difficult to fully articulate as the concept isn't completely formed in my mind yet. Looking at the original pyramid, we see it's based on fundamental needs (physiological requirements, shelter, security), followed by psychological needs, and finally self-actualization. This is a simplified description for those familiar with the theory, as each category contains many more elements. If you're unfamiliar with the subject, you can read about it on Wikipedia.
Why mention this? Because while I acknowledge that all causes leading to CTB are valid, I believe some erode one's will to live more quickly than others. That's why I want to use this thread to gather insights, stories, and ideas about solving this problem. My personal journey with mental health and suicide attempts has been a roller coaster—my first attempt was in 2010. I've fallen into depression and risen from failures many times over the years, always with suicidal thoughts lurking in the shadows like a persistent buzz that sometimes becomes a deafening alarm. Currently, I've managed to reframe many ideas and emotions that damaged my mental health. However, due to past poor choices and emotional struggles, I've been unemployed for 14 months .
I have a plan to move forward with my life in a more stoic and resilient way, but unemployment remains like a painful hemorrhoid I can't get rid of, causing me to continue contemplating CTB.
I would appreciate hearing your recommendations, stories, failures, and ideas. I believe focusing on the issue of unemployment in this thread could greatly help many people.
