![Suicide Prevention Awareness Month
The Golden Gate Bridge — a panoramic vista and an emblem to San Franciscans. Millions of people have traveled far and wide distances to view the great red bridge. Among those millions have visited with other plans. According to The Centre for Suicide Prevention, this Wonder of the World has been the site of an estimated 1,600 suicide attempts. Only a tiny fraction of such victims survived.
September, National Suicide Prevention Month, recognizes those who feel dimissed and ostracized for their struggle with mental health. This acknowledgement serves as a much needed beacon of acceptance and support for a community facing undue stigma. According to the National Insitute of Mental Health, suicide remains the second leading cause of death for those among the ages of 10 and 34.
Michelle Sanchez, a freshman at Skyline College, is one of many students who has struggled with mental health.
“I felt lonely because no one really talked about [mental health],” Sanchez said. “It got to that point where I was so tired that I wanted to pop that bubble. I did, I ended up popping that bubble. But thankfully, I’m still here. I am a suicide attempt survior.”
Addressing this sense of loneliness is paramount. As students return to campus, many of them have developed mental illnesses due to isolation or have been diagnosed beforehand. Transitioning from Zoom to in person learning, students will meet new people and learn to socialize after a long hiatus. One never knows who around them could be dealing with mental health issues.
