From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Intersuicide

Intersuicide is a psychological state where an individual simultaneously experiences a desire to live and a desire to die. This term captures the conflict between profound despair and the elements that tether a person to life, such as family, cherished memories, possessions, and the fear of death or the afterlife.
Concept
Intersuicide arises when individuals face extreme emotional distress, causing a loss of faith and hope. However, unlike cases of pure suicidal ideation, those experiencing intersuicide are held back by various factors that create a desire to continue living. This duality of feelings can result in significant inner turmoil and confusion.
Factors
Several elements can contribute to the experience of intersuicide:
-Family and Relationships: The love and responsibility toward family and friends.
-Memories and Nostalgia: Positive past experiences and hope for future moments.
-Possessions and Goals: Material items or future aspirations that create a sense of purpose.
-Fear of Dying: Concerns about the unknown aspects of death and the afterlife.
Recognition and Support
Understanding and recognizing intersuicide is crucial in providing appropriate support and intervention. Encouraging open dialogues about mental health and offering resources for those in distress can help alleviate the severity of this condition.
