A research in BMJ Medical Journal states that most people commit suicide on Monday. What is the connection of suicide with Monday, why do people think of committing suicide more on this day? Why do people commit suicide?
WHO had released a data in the year 2019. It was told in it that every year more than 70 lakh people commit suicide across the world. A large number of them are also youth. Depression (poor mental health) is a major cause of suicide. When a person starts thinking that there is nothing left in his life, he commits suicide. During depression, suicidal thoughts arise and the person commits suicide. It is generally believed that thoughts of suicide can come at any time, but it is not necessary. Now a research has been done in which it has been said that the chances of committing suicide are highest on Monday. This claim has been made in a research published in the medical journal BMJ.
According to a global analysis of suicides over nearly four decades, people are more likely to die by suicide on Mondays than any other day of the week. In this research published in the medical journal BMJ, 1.7 million suicides were analyzed in 26 countries between 1971 and 2019. In this research, data of suicides in American, Asian and European countries was extracted. In the study, European countries Czech The countries of the Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Italy, Romania, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom were included. People who committed suicide in these countries. The thought of giving up one's life came to the fore on Monday.
Why is there a higher risk of suicide on Monday? Ma O'Shea, assistant professor of social psychology at the University of Nottingham in the UK, says that research has not made it clear why there is a higher risk of suicide on Monday, but Monday is associated with work. Pressure and the frustration of going back to work after the holidays can be a reason for suicidal thoughts. Professor Brian O'Shea says that people are in a good mood on Friday and look forward to the weekend and holidays on Saturday and Sunday. We meet family when we are able to, but on Monday, work pressure and worries about the future completely dominate. Which can increase the risk of even suicide.
Professor Brian Suicidal thoughts are seen more in those people whose mental health is already bad due to some reason. However, there is a need to do more research on this and take a closer look at the socio-cultural factors of different countries. Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death, according to the World Health Organization, more than malaria, HIV/AIDS and breast cancer. Deaths are due to suicide. It is the fourth leading cause of death, especially among youth aged 15-29. Psychiatrist Dr AK Kumar says that the idea of committing suicide does not come just like that. This happens due to bio-neurological changes in the brain. Due to this change the person feels that his life is no longer of any use. After this he commits suicide. 95 percent of people who commit suicide suffer from some kind of mental illness. When this disease becomes dominant and starts affecting the brain function, then the person commits suicide.
