We can Tag Depression as a Killer

There are several studies and cases were suicides are commonly acquired because of depression. It usually happens when a person is having a lack of interest or apathy. That is why we need to start up building ourselves in a proper way of releasing depression like talking to someone we can trust for and of course our family that every time we seek them, they are always there for us.

I am writing this article because I am in it; I am quite depressed in the midst of recalibrating my own self towards my failures happened before and of course, I heard and had a classmate was died because of depression. It is so alarming.

Way back when I was in my last month of 4th-year high school. I had a boy classmate suffers love's depression. The story was about a love quarrel between my classmate and our student teacher. They began close to each other after the teaching stint of our student teacher. I was really not a fan of them, but I witnessed their love story before the suicide. After several weeks of teaching, our subject teacher fetched the news about their relationship and of course, it was a non-ethical relationship. That means they are not abiding the rules of the school under the Department of Education. Therefore, our subject teacher talked to them. Since the student teacher will affect her grades of teaching us, she decided a cool off (not totally breaking up). But of course, my classmate wasn't agreed of. The boy had been so depressed and committed a suicide. It was so heartbreaking for us, we were so close to my classmate and he was too young. We don't have a choice just to accept the fact that we couldn't see him anymore.

Last year somewhere here in the place where I live in, I caught a suicide news. It was heartbreaking because the girl was a family woman. She has a son and a husband, but of course in some circumstances, suicide really not a choosy one. It can affect to all of us; single, married, or whatever ages are... She was a nurse but due to his womanizer husband, she couldn't take it, she let killing herself and left her one year old son man and her husband.

The latest one I heard was yesterday and it was happened last February 18, 2 days before their barangay fiesta. A 22 year-old guy took his life under the mango tree using a rope and it was caught tomorrow then... One of my friends told me that the guy was asking to go home while they are in a small party around midnight. After he leaves, his group of friends waiting for him but eventually, no one was coming back. So they decided not to call him because they were thinking maybe he fall asleep. It is still remain a question to the brave family why their child took his life off.

We should remain our self in the hands of God and let him draw the plan whatever plan he has each for us. The only thing we can do is that we should put our 100 percent trust to him whatever it takes. God is always good and be there for us in times of burdens.
