11 What is a mental illness? It is when someone lacks the ability to manage day to day events and/or control their behavior so that basic physical and emotional needs are threatened or unmet.
12 What is mental illness like? Mental illness is a physical condition just like asthma or arthritis. But still society believes that a person who is mentally ill needs to show more willpower - to be able to pull themselves out it.
13 These disorders can affect persons of any age, race, sex, religion, or income. Mental illnesses are not the result of a personal weakness, lack of character, or poor upbringing.
14 ..It is also like telling a person who has an amputated leg to run across the room. But a person who has mental health issue has a broken brain.
15 Myths of Mental Illness Mental illness is caused by bad parenting. Fact: Most diagnosed individuals come from supportive homes. The mentally ill are violent and dangerous. Fact: Most are victims of violence. People with a mental disorder are not smart. Fact: Numerous studies have shown that many have average or above average intelligence.

33 MYTH OR FACT? 1. Myth: People who threaten suicide don t go through with it Fact: Most people who commit suicide have made direct or indirect statements about their suicidal intentions 2. Myth: Suicide happens suddenly and without warning Fact: Most suicidal acts represent a carefully thought out strategy for coping with their problems 33
34 MYTH OR FACT? 3. Myth: People who attempt suicide have gotten it out of their system Fact: Any individual with one or more prior suicide attempts is at much greater risk than those who have never attempted suicide 4. Myth: Suicidal people are intent on dying Fact: Most suicidal people have mixed feelings about killing themselves; they are doubtful about living, not intent on dying. MOST WANT TO BE SAVED! 34
35 MYTH OR FACT? 5. Myth: Asking people about suicidal thoughts or actions will cause them to kill themselves Fact: You cannot make someone suicidal when you show an interest in their welfare by discussing the possibilities of suicide Concerned, non-judgmental questions encouraging the person to discuss his/her ideas may help relieve the psychological pressure 6. Myth: All suicidal individuals are mentally ill Fact: A suicidal person is extremely unhappy but not necessarily mentally ill; a normal person can be suicidal. 35
36 What is suicide? difficult to determine suicide taboo topic a mortal sin used to be illegal in Canada difficult to know person s intention large number of equivocal suicides reporting practices and judgments differ widely making it difficult to get accurate information

39 Attempters and Completers Characteristic Attempters Completers Sex More often female More often male Age Younger Older Means Low lethality High lethality Setting Diagnoses High chance of rescue Dysthymia, Borderline Personality Low chance of rescue Mood disorder, Schizophrenia, Substance Abuse
40 Mental disorder and suicide Retrospective studies suggest that up to 90% of those who complete suicide had a mental disorder at the time of their death Several mental disorders have high rates of suicide: - mood disorder - schizophrenia - substance abuse/alcoholism
41 Mental disorder and suicide Iowa 500 study followed people who had been hospitalized for depression and schizophrenia with a control group of people without a mental disorder Suicide as a % of all deaths was 10% for depression group, 10% for schizophrenia group, and 0% for control group
42 Other risk factors Age in general, older men have higher rates of completed suicide (although the increase in suicide in young men has narrowed this gap); younger people higher rates of suicide attempts Marital status high rates of suicide attempts for single people; high rates of completed suicide for people who are widowed, separated, or divorced; risk also diminishes if person has children Race high among Caucasians and aboriginal people
43 Other risk factors Physical illness Life stress especially loss experiences Loneliness, isolation Previous attempts Suicide plan Family history Suicide sometimes occurs after improvement in mental health
44 Understanding suicide Biological suicide is related to mental disorders, serotonin level, genetic link Psychological Freud, anger turned inward; Cognitive-behavioural modelling and social learning; Existential-humanistic hopelessness and despair, lack of meaning Sociocultural suicide is related to social norms and culture
45 Emile Durkheim states that we must understand the relationship between individual and society. Egoistic suicide: suicide of isolated individual. Altruistic: overinvolvement with society. Suicide undertaken on behalf of the group. Anomic: when society fails to regulate its members (adolescent rejected by peer group, farmer ruined by economic structure) Fatalistic: excessive regulation (e.g., prisoners, slaves)
46 Suicide prevention No formal recognition of the problem in Canada; no official government or professional organization; suicide the deserted field England Anti-suicide prevention bureau, 1906; New York, Save a life league England Samaritans, 1953 Los Angeles Suicide Prevention Center (Farberow & Shneidman, 1961), 1960, AAS, Center for Suicide Studies in Washington DC
47 Suicide prevention crisis intervention use of telephone (distress lines) 24-hour service use of trained volunteers emotional support connection to other services
48 Suicide prevention Warning Signs Signs are often not verbal. Giving away beloved objects. Changes in eating or sleeping habits. Displaying a sense of calmness after a period of agitation.
49 Suicide education programs provides information to students in high school, builds awareness little research showing the effectiveness of suicide prevention, crisis intervention, distress lines, or suicide education programs in reducing suicide rates many suicidal people do not come into contact with these services suicide education and awareness can actually increase suicidal ideation (Shaffer et al., 1988)
50 Effective suicide prevention General approaches to primary prevention and health promotion building competence, coping, and problem-solving skills Reduction of access to lethal means CO gas in UK, firearms
51 Treating suicidal individuals Need to assess suicidal risk and ensure adequate supervision of attempter Deal with life crisis swiftly Therapy focused on building protective factors and reducing risk factors, through a variety of different approaches Encourage open talk about suicidal ideation
