I met a woman many years ago
her name was Carmen, she was a very
cheerful and very affectionate but above all
I was amazed at his kindness and his
so positive way of seeing life before
the eyes of society
Carmen had everything that any
woman could want a family that the
I adored four healthy children and a good
job
what else could you ask for what nobody
he knew he was fighting against
a great depression and a disorder of the
personality that caused a
unbearable suffering
even though he spent years fighting in
this hard battle
finally Carmen took her life in
today in which we
we enjoyed this event tedx ex alcoy
Spain only eleven people were
they will have taken their lives and 214 people
they will have tried official data of the
statistics National Institute
suicide is the first cause of
death among adolescents at the
world
It is also the first cause of death
not natural of our country
in addition 95% of the cases had
some mental illness diseases
100% treatable
what is the free number to which
you must call if you know any
case of gender violence 016 exact
perfect
I see that you have it very clear so look
for each case of gender violence
there are 72 suicides you want more
traffic campaigns zero accidents
the most expensive glasses in the world the joint
most expensive in the world
It turns out that there are twice as many
deaths by suicide than accidents
of traffic you knew
what would happen if all these cases of
suicide appeared in the media
communication with the same importance
because it would not be the same visibility
because when Carmen tried
committing suicide for the first time they come high
the next day when I was still
sick because doctors do not give her the
enough importance because they told him
carmen you do not want to attract attention and
go to your house
I insist 95% of the cases had
some 100% treatable mental illness
we need to improve the system of
mental health
There is a great lack of attention
psychological and psychiatric
there are no beds in hospitals for
these patients and send them home as
in the case of Carmen Carmen is my
wonderful mother who took her life
at 48 years a death
[Applause]
a death that was preventable
so we only knew a little more about
suicide but the means of
communication has tacit agreements
those who hide this great reality believe
that it is harmful to talk about this scourge
but it turns out that who recommends
expressly inform
adequately of all cases of
suicide as one of the most
important to prevent it
my mother was a woman who was
madly in love with life was
all the time singing and dancing until
I was mad at her because she left the
door of my house open so that
neighbors came to live by and for the
others but especially for their four
children
I’m sure that when he committed suicide,
She was defeated but her illness
the statistics show us that
among all of us here today
one in four has some kind of
mental disorder either psychosis
bipolar disorder and depression or some
of anxiety disorders
no one would recognize him for fear of being
rejected by society
if we continue with this fear with this
taboo
we will increase the suffering and the number
of people who take their own lives
to conclude my talk I leave you with three
reflections one
we have to eliminate the absurd
stigmatization of those who come
to the psychologist they ask for help I really wanted
be a hospital if you feel bad about
do not ask for help when you know that
something inside you do not work well that
should two it would be time for it to be
put into practice some plan of
prevention of suicide in countries like
they have been doing it for
almost over 30 years and 3
let’s talk when six alone or sad to
blatt decision to someone seeks help
it’s not bad to ask for help a little
change like this can save many
lives
speak to prevent it through the
and
