He said :


We live busy lifestyles and barely get time to sit and actually process our thoughts, which is likely a reason why mental health issues , suicidal ideation, depression or underlying problems go unassessed.
In life everybody falls, but it takes several minutes to get shattered like a glass and just a second to bounce back like a ball .As far as life is concerned you have a choice either to be a glass or to be a ball.
Being a glass – you have no choice but to get shattered. Being a ball – you have a choice but to bounce back and find yourself.

Everyone knows that we are in a Turbulent era, a period of frustrations, depressions, confusions, terror, stress and the likes. Everyone’s trying to meet up their target in life . All these increase the risk of high BP which also consequently leads to heart failure or attack. Of course, we expect sudden death, which is now rampant. Please move away from being provoked easily by your kids, friends, colleagues, superiors, subordinates, partners, husbands and wives. Avoid reacting to things aggressively. Isolate yourself from disturbances, isolate yourself from toxic people. Avoid too much thinking when no salary or food at home, imagine it’s on the way coming. Avoid exchange of words with people at home, markets, offices, chambers etc. Always check your BP, take drugs, follow instructions, and exercises. Avoid cholesterol foods. Go to see your doctor immediately if you feel changes in your body, especially chest. Stay in peace and never fight anyone, pray always.Your health is far better than any worldly thing. Beware of transfer of aggression. STAY ALIVE and have a fruitful time always.

Stay Alive book increases awareness about suicidal behaviors and how to effectively prevent them, provides effective grand strategies, self-values to maintain your mental health and multi-level prevention on suicide, grief, depression and anxiety among Adolescents & Youth,”


He said in every 40 seconds someone takes their own life according to the World Health Organization (WHO). That’s about 800,000 people worldwide every year , although some estimates put that number closer to 1 million. Suicide is the leading cause of death for people aged 15 to 29 and for every suicide that results in death, there are as many as 40 attempted suicides. What we know for sure is that there’s a lot to live for.


Suicidal thoughts, much like mental health conditions, can affect anyone regardless of age, gender or background. In fact, suicide is often the result of an untreated mental health condition. Suicidal thoughts, although common, should not be considered normal and often indicate more serious issues.


September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month , a time to raise awareness on this stigmatized, and often taboo, topic. In addition to shifting public perception, we use this month to spread hope and vital information to people affected by suicide. Our goal is ensuring that individuals, friends and families have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide prevention and to seek help.


Throughout the month of September, SAC ” Stay Alive Civility will highlight “ Suicide prevention & awareness among adolescents and youth , Together for Mental Health,” which encourages people to bring their voices together to advocate for better mental health care, including a crisis response system. SAC ” Stay Alive Civility wants any person experiencing suicidal thoughts or behaviors to have a number to call, a system to turn to, that would connect them to the treatment and support they need.



HOW TO OBSERVE STAY ALIVE LIFESTYLE


CONNECT: Reach out to someone who may need help. It’s widely known that certain behaviors indicate the possibility of suicide. We can all learn the warning signs of suicidal ideation. If we spot them early enough, we can take action. The use of media as a tool for promoting awareness.



DISCUSS: Talking about this issue is an important first step in ridding society of the idea that mental health issues should remain hidden. On Stay Alive Global Summit, host or simply attend a panel discussion on how mental health problems intensify thoughts of suicide.


SEARCH FOR RESOURCES: STAY ALIVE BOOK SERIES provides a lot of resources for young people to learn more about the reasons for suicide and how to prevent them. You will find countless books, music , and stay alive global summit events online to point you in the right direction. Knowledge is not only power — it can save someone’s life.


WHY STAY ALIVE BOOK IS IMPORTANT

Suicide affects all of us. Many people know somebody who has taken their own life or someone who has lost a friend or family member to suicide. STAY ALIVE BOOK will help you to reflect on the value of life and that no matter how bad things seem, there’s always hope.



Awareness Resources

During Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, we will provide I formations , music , stay alive book links and graphics you can use on your website and social media accounts. Use #SuicidePrevention


While suicide prevention is important to address year-round, Suicide Prevention Awareness Month provides a dedicated time to come together with collective passion and strength around a difficult topic. The truth is, we can all benefit from honest conversations about mental health conditions and suicide, because just one conversation can change a life.

With awareness comes action

One of the main goals of Stay Alive Civility Global Initiative is to increase awareness about suicidal behaviors and how to effectively prevent them, if you have a friend who confides in you about having suicidal thoughts or you see a concerning social media post.

Psalm Ebube shared solutions that can help the youth in this new age and era we are entering at THE STATE OF CIVILITY YOUTH SUBMIT for a Global Dialogue with Today’s Top World Leaders about our Future-Our Youth!

PSALM EBUBE

“Civility, Love is a universal language and Creativity & Music is one of the foremost modes of expressing it” Amb. Psalm Ebube

“Music can change the world because it can change people. Civility in Action will change the world”

Giving other young people a Leadership role and also use our creativity as a Major tool in this new age. Music , arts and crafts, dance, theatre, sports, street art. Almost anything can be turned into an activist project. What are you good at? I’ll encourage every Youth to translate their Energy & Potentials into civic activism! I created first World Civility Song of The Year. One of the best ways Youth can make a difference is to inspire others to join teach other young people. You also can do the same things and be the Voice! Maybe you want to launch a campaign on raising awareness of a social issue, for example, you do not need help to do everything, be the Change! If you can create a team to join you, by giving everyone a role as an ambassador and a change agent, you’re helping them to put their own ideas into reality and make a much wider difference. There are many inspiring youth like you around the world. Reach out to them. Learn about their efforts and initiatives, we are stronger together.


Secondly. In a world of
uncertainties, technology can
be a source of empowerment,
enabling Youth to become
the authors of their futures
and to rise above the cycle of
disadvantage. Young people could get left behind by the pace of technological change unless they are connected with digital training and job opportunities, the rapid spread of digital technologies around the world is boosting economic growth and expanding opportunities. However, the benefits are not evenly distributed yet technology has the immense potential
to even the playing field.
Technology can transform the way youth learn, connect and discover opportunities
for their wellbeing and development.
In recent years, many African countries have experienced fast growth. Digital jobs for African youth extend far beyond the business process outsourcing industry. Digital skills have become increasingly valuable across different functions.

There is so much fulfilment in putting a genuine smile on people’s faces.

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the introduction of strong restrictive measures that are having a substantial effect on the global economy, like increase in suicide rates.
Sadly, the WHO has warned that this pandemic may lead to 75,000 “deaths of despair” from suicide, drug and alcohol abuse.

Looking at our early record of a possible death caused by suicide every 18 minutes, and a suicidal attempt every 43 seconds, I think the numbers are going down south.

How can we enforce it in the minds of this generation that suicide is not an escape route?

At the end of the day, Love is a universal language and MUSIC is one of the foremost mode of expressing it
