Suicide Prevention :: Prevent Depression & Overdose in Youth & Teen

Let me tell you a medical fact from years of research around the world. If you are having thoughts of suicide, it is almost certain you have developed depressive illness. This illness, caused by stresses in your life, distorts your view of the situation and the future, and lies to you that there is no way things can get better. DON'T LET YOURSELF BE FOOLED BY THIS ILLNESS, which can be cured, or will go away itself in many cases.

Dr David Horgan,
who is an Irish-Australian psychiatrist has prepared this free suicide prevention service

This is an information service for anyone who is having problems, feeling down, sad, etc. Our Suicide Prevention site is also for people suffering from depression. We can provide you with information or contact information for people who can listen and help. Hopefully, if you are reading this, you're just going through a period of normal human unhappiness due to some personal problem or event. The most likely outcome is that you will feel back to your normal self very soon.

However, persisting or severe sad and negative feelings, often accompanied by feeling uptight, anxious or nervous, may mean you actually have a very common illness. This is called Clinical Depressive Illness, it is frequently unrecognised and untreated but it is in fact very easy to treat. More information on suicide

I am an Irish-Australian psychiatrist who has set up an information service to deal with depressive illness, and in particular, suicide prevention in Australia. The vast majority of people who commit suicide in Australia and around the world, do in fact suffer from a depressive illness. Perhaps if they had been diagnosed and treated, their lives may have been saved.

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. There are other ways.

Many people who have recovered from the same feelings of despair and suicide you may be experiencing describe having come out of a nightmare, and are hardly able to believe they once thought so negatively or wanted to die.
