Dr. Bahia Hamidi, a mental health consultant, sent a message to parents to avoid the idea of their children committing suicide, after it has spread widely in our society during the past days, especially after the news of the suicide of “a young man of Alexandria – Sameh Muhammad” was circulated and published on social media.
suicide letters
The mental health consultant indicated, in televised statements, saying: “I receive many messages on my page from teenagers saying that they are going to commit suicide, and when I talk to them, I find that the reason is that the family does not listen to them.. This is because they are busy all day and do not listen to their children.”
Dr. Bahia Hamidi commented on the last suicide of Sameh Muhammad, stressing that he needed someone to hear him only, but unfortunately most of the psychiatrists have little time, as for the doctor’s sentence “the spirit of suicide”, pointing out that it is impossible for a psychiatrist to say to a patient this sentence.
severe depression
The mental health consultant added that from the method of writing the suicide’s letter, it is clear that he was suffering from severe depression, although he is a successful person, as he recommended his friends to continue his work even after his death, and in a large percentage that the family is the cause of his death and not the psychiatrist.
Dr. Bahia Hamidi concluded her speech with advice to parents, do not achieve your dreams in your children by putting pressure on them academically, and it is better to provide part of their day for their children and hear them well so that none of them enter into a state of severe depression, which eventually leads to suicide.
It is noteworthy that the suicide of a young man named Sameh Muhammad from Alexandria spread, as he posted on his official page on the social networking site “Facebook”, that he would commit suicide, and among the reasons was his psychiatrist.
She warns of suicide
Al-Isboa warns against suicide, asking those who have such thoughts to go to a psychiatrist in an attempt to solve their problems, and what they may be exposed to, and to think positively about the continuity of life that God has granted to man, and to go to the specialized doctor, and to present themselves to the concerned people to solve the problem.
