[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1568116329794","data":" Suicide has always been a sensitive issue in our society and open conversations about it are not always welcomed. But the least we can do to prevent something as saddening as suicide is to start talking about it.<\/p>Suicidal thoughts strike, when a person gives up and considers death as the only solution that can put an end to all the problems that exist. A lot of issues in life can make us feel hopeless and low about ourselves but suicide is never a way out. It won\u2019t solve any problem. It just leaves behind your mess for others to deal. Instead of creating a negative impact by taking a step like this, one should make a little more effort in getting through the struggle. Still if things seem out of control there\u2019s no wrong in seeking help from someone. <\/p>There were a lot times when I couldn\u2019t fight back against the things that put me down. Like, I was a chubby child and it was fun for my friends and adults to tease me for being that way. Referring me as teddy bear and other things of that sort didn\u2019t bother me much but things like asking only my weight in front the whole class just to embarrass me which a teacher of mine did, used to hurt me a lot. This made me feel extremely conscious about my body. I didn\u2019t participate in school dances and sports for a long time while all the other children did and it made me feel lonely and helpless. Nevertheless, I did not think that it was the end and started working on my self. <\/p> \nI come from a conservative family, restrictions and rules were way too many for me during my teenage as I\u2019m a girl. The way I dressed, the friends I made, the way I behaved and talked was all controlled by my family. And whenever I fought against it, all I got was humiliation in front of my cousins and other family members. At that age, I felt locked up and clueless. I took my time to fight back again and constantly reminded my family by talking to them, about the way I wanted to be without any unnecessary restrictions. Till today, discussions go on but things are a lot better for me than earlier. I don't want a life that\u2019s under someone\u2019s control. And considering how strongly almost everyone in my family denied my freedom I could have easily given up. But I chose to hope for the better and kept fighting. <\/p>Turning point in a student\u2019s life is the performance in competitive exams after 11th and 12th. You career gets decided for you with just a few multiple choice questions! My parents got my admission in a good college, expensive enough for an upper middle class family to afford but still they wanted me to get the best coaching to crack JEE. Expectations on me were high, and caused more stress than the exams that I had to clear. Despite the best resources I had, I couldn\u2019t live up to anyone\u2019s expectations and didn\u2019t qualify the exams to get into IIT due to reasons like lack of practice or strategy or whatever..! It was demoralising and I doubted my own capabilities for a period of time because of this. Now, this is where most of the students are giving up and ending their lives. But out of my own experience I suggest students going through this kind of phase to take their time and figure things out eventually. This is what I\u2019m doing. Career is your personal choice and it\u2019s okay even if doesn\u2019t meet others\u2019 expectations as long as you are happy with it. <\/p>Problems and the way people choose to deal with them vary but suicide is definitely not the way. Today is suicide prevention day, do contribute your part in easing the conversations about this by sharing your own experiences.\n\n <\/p>"}]
