    When God promised to supply all our needs we must trust him. Lack of faith leads to such a drastic step. If we have personal relationship with lord than nothing to
    Worry.
    RIP

    Rest In Peace.

    Many suicides due to lack of thought control, self negative thoughts or hopelessness feelings. Simply need to love one's negative or any other worrying thoughts whether financial, relational or of guilt to bring up positivity and surrending them to God. Over the time one is able to overcome them or God would show one way or the other as God is Love - 1 john 4:8 also couple of chapters or more of Bible or Holy Scriptures brings down the anxiety levels also might get new inspirations with regards to the one's problems as divine word itself is God John 1:1

    Suffering, ups and downs are part of life. If one overcomes shame, guilt, depression by doing good things, hardwork and slowly build up anew, it is a greatest achievement in life and in the end one will have satisfaction in life.

    Smiling face contest conducted by our diocese is good but jobs are not given to our own youngsters. Counselling, seminars and motivational talks are of no help. Feed the hungry or atleast give them jobs.

    As per the information I have, few religions (faiths) do allow 'Atma-Dahana' (suicide) as ultimum measure to end their life.

    For people of "The Book" viz: Jews, Christians and Muslims suicide is forbidden. Christian etiquette does not permit death by suicide.

    These r indeed most trying times made worse by pressure of our ambitions & dreams. Appeal to all to just hang in there. Our priority for next 4-6 months has to be getting 3 meals a day & staying protected from COVID. If we can achieve this in itself is a huge achievement. All can give shape to their dreams after 6 months, it is never too late. Just hang in there, you may be more luckier than many others.

    May his soul rest in peace. My request to all the youngsters is that there are still a lot of opportunities. When one door closes another opens. The situation is not rosy but at the same time, it is not that bad that this is the end. Please remember your loved ones. Spend time with them. Let us focus on the positive side of our life. Every person is carrying their own cross.  Have faith in god. Let us work together in making this place a better one.

    Depression is the main causes for this type of action. When person is depressed than their family support is make lot of difference but some will blame the depressed person than no option.

    The world is reeling under the spell of Covid19 pandemic, leading to an unprecedented recession !!! Expatriates especially from the middle east nations, are feeling the heat of retrenchment... Dakshin Kannada district has absolutely NIL source of any employment opportunities. Savings gets evaporated leading to despair, depression sets in... The end results are invariably tragic !!!! Arnold rest in eternal peace !!!!!

    First of all please dont encourage suicide death and give much publicity to it. It's nothing but a shaitan act. People who do not associate much with god and are alone are doing the same much. It will happen either with person who hold good name and reputation in the society jump into river or person who gained prestige in his acting career and holding sufficient wealth or a person from weaker section who dont want to do hardship to earn money. All are wrong...in respective way. Just ignore them and not to give much importance to it. Otherwise other's also follow the same. After death of actor recently more than 3-4 youngsters taken there life. At least they have think of there family members once...how they live there after. Government should ban news of suicide in social media. Some need publicity even in there death.

    Rightly said Sajan.....To honour Lord is to Hate the Evil.......So suicide news must be said like this He has decieved Himself n God,,,or else ppl r getting emotions n doing it atleast to call them innocent after death.....

    We shud say them a Judas followers,,,,,,,even I had strong tendency of suicide now I came out by knowing God more n more...cuz He is Life ..as it is written "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every Word proceed from the mouth of God"....
    So we have to listen n apply words of god for our daily life then everything will be alright.......

    So hard and sad to hear young man committed suecide.He was I am sure very much depressive because of no proper job and income.One should not let his head hanging .Problems come to humans,and one should atleast confine someone your problems to comeout of your problems.Noone profit from your suecide but parents and family suffer more from it.One should always think one day will come and be better.Pray to God to help you.Dont throw your life simply so.Heartfelt sympathy to his family.Corona has brought more problems to familys.May his soul rest in peace.

    Whatever is going wrong needs to be dealt with as a society. There is a definitely room for change. Now is the time to pay attention to human experiences (what is going on with a person) rather than what society demands. Social media, ease of communication needs to be used extensively to bring change....Lets do it together.

    Terribly going wrong once should visit hospitals where in how people struggling day and night to survive and try to live on this earth for few more days. Many are even successful after there much efforts. Arnold was just 29. Blaming on surroundings every time will not be helpful. Determination in mind should be there even during pain period. Always look poor people how they live..each and every day.

    I totally agree with you.
    Dreams should be big. Patience and hard work are the main capital to realize the dreams. But one should not live a life of his dreams until he achieves it.That leads to disaster.
    Rest in peace Arnold. May your family members garner enough strength to bear with the loss.

    Sajaan
    What you said is okay for a person who is in a normal condition. But, depression affects the ability to feel, think, and handle daily activities. The man who is in depression feels a heavy load on his head which he cannot carry. He is passing through sleepless nights and feels something in himself which he cannot describe. Though women feel more prone to suicide under these condition, statistics show men are dying more by suicide because they use more lethal methods.
