Suicide Week
11/19/09
In this workshop there was a video on suicide and the different signs of people who may be warning of suicide. I think that this workshop is especially important because there is a lot of stress for college students. I know that there is always a trade-off between doing work, getting paid, and sleep for most students. So this stress may reach unsafe levels in which it becomes depression. But sometimes it is hard to diagnose if you don’t see the signs. This workshop is important for all students to see not only for themselves but also for their fellow classmates who may be going through unusually large amounts of stress. Out of all the workshops I’ve been to I think this addresses an issue that is very serious especially for students who feel overworked and under constant pressure. Everyone should be aware because it may mean someone getting help that they need.
