U. S.: Suicide Prevention in Youth (Contd.)
by Dr. Richard P. Fitzgibbons, MD
Please allow me to continue sharing excerpts from the research article for your attention, so that we could help prevent those who are in danger of taking such a disastrous decision:
Low Self-Esteem: Healthy self-esteem is important in the development of psychological health in youth. Its development requires secure bonding first with the mother, then with the father, next with siblings and finally with peers/friends. Weaknesses in any of these relationships can contribute to insecurity that may cause both anxiety and depressive illness. A psychological reality is that it is not possible to develop and maintain healthy self-esteem without friendships. The relationships with parents and siblings are not enough. Parents must encourage to grow with gratitude for one’s God given gifts in these relationships.
Mistrust and Anxiety: The development and protection of trust in relationships is essential to establishing and maintaining healthy friendships and later, loving relationship in married life. Many youths have reported that it is increasingly difficult to maintain trusting friendships. They explain that as friendships developed, they were blind-sided by the emergence of deep selfishness in the other person. This then destroyed their trust and created fears about being vulnerable and trusting again. As a psychiatrist, I am trying to help those traumatized by a culture that has given in to severe selfishness, excessive anger, lack of respect in treating others, the use of others as sexual objects, the contraceptive mentality and a retreat from, and failure to appreciate, the beauty and fulfillment found in marriage. As with the healing of all emotional pain, forgiveness is essential to resolve the anger that encapsulates sadness, hopelessness, mistrust and low self-esteem.
Substance Abuse: The early risk factors that have contributed to the epidemics of deaths from heroin and opioid use in youth and young adults that often are the result of hopelessness need to be identified and addressed. Like nearly all people with substance abuse problems, most heroin users initiated their drug use early in their teens, usually beginning with alcohol and marijuana. The first director of the National Institute of Drug Abuse, Robert L. Dupont, accurately identified marijuana as a gateway drug. In this epidemic, it should be recognized that no progress was made in the treatment of alcoholism until a faith component was initiated in
their treatment through admitting powerlessness and turning it over to God. Their benefits in protection for suicide and depression have been demonstrated. especially given the research findings that demonstrate their benefits. The most notable benefit was in the Harvard study of 5,000 adolescents who were 33% less likely to use illicit drugs as a result of regular attendance at religious services.
Let us pray and take effort to save our young people, Fr. Arul Joseph V. To be continued...
Sincere and Heartfelt Condolences to Family & Friends of:

February 5, 2020 - Overcomer. (1 Hour 59 mins, 2019) John Harrison after he loses his basketball team and is challenged to coach another sport he doesn’t know, nor like. John questions his own worth and dares to help the least likely runner take on the biggest race of the year. Faith, humor and heart. February 12 - Founding Brothers – Joseph Ellis - History Channel (3 hr-will skip some, 2002) Examines six moments when collisions and collusions of these towering figures, Washington, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Adams, Madison, Burr left an indelible imprint on America. February 19 - The Crossing. (1 hour 40 mins, 1999) Jeff Daniels as George Washington on Christmas night, 1776 takes his troops, suffering from disease and desertion across the ice choked Delaware River. The next morning, they surprise the battle-hardened Hessian mercenaries. February 26 - The Tree of Life - Terrence Malick. (2 hours, 19 mins, 2011) Terrence Malick now in four decades of film making, realized his most rapturous vision to date, in this film, tracing a story of childhood, wonder and grief to the outer limits of time and space. Reaching back to the dawn of creation, Malick sets a story of boyhood memories on a universal scale, charting the coming of age of an awestruck child (newcomer Hunter McCracken) in Texas in the 1950s, as he learns to navigate the extremes of nature and grace represented by his bitter often tyrannical father (Brad Pitt) and his ethereal, nurturing mother (Jessica Chastain).
