Suicide has become more and more prevalent in the present modern day. The way that we deal with suicide as Christians and from a personal standpoint is that you try to comfort the survivors. The way we try to help prevent suicide is to deal with the anger, stress, and tension that people have in their lives on a daily basis. Most of the time, when people commit suicide they have been facing a problem that they have not resolved in a healthy manner. Try to recognize when a person's mental health is not well and recommend that they talk to a counselor, pastor, or psychiatrist, somebody that can help to stabilize their mind and help them find peace. We believe that prayer and studying the Bible helps people get a better attitude about what causes their mental stability to be off. So we counsel people to read the Bible and discuss whatever issues come up.
