It is sad to see that some people choose to end their lives when they feel like they have no way out of their problems. It is a tragedy that is hard to understand, and let us try to do everything we can to help those who are struggling with their mental health.

This is one thing I fear most, and it's being in debt. She probably felt this was the easiest way out.

I fear same because it is one fast way of getting depressed and having suicidal thoughts

It's sad to see people committing suicide because of their debts. Many of the people are living below the poverty line here because of the high inflation. The government is trying to help them out, but our population is so large that not all can be helped.

Very true, I have seen a lot of people do crazy things simply because they found themselves into debts.

Debts kill if not properly managed. She should have approached her family and colleagues to help her. She should have not committed suicide.

Yes, the debt itself might not cause it but the dragging from the lenders. one might not survive it.
