Su***de is the second leading cause of death among 15-29 years old globally. In our country, the age-standardized su***de rate is 5.2 for males, 2.3 for females, and 13.4 for both sexes per 100,000 Filipinos based on the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) data. Su***de is usually contemplated with psychological ambivalence since survivors of su***de attempt often say that their wish to die coexists with a wish to be rescued or saved.
Each year millions of individuals feel psychologically distressed or overwhelmed by stressful or traumatic events. They can make use of their usual coping strategies to face events that they perceive as significant and threatening. But, when those coping strategies fail and they are unable to look for alternatives to lessen their tension or anxiety, they experience a period of psychological disequilibrium known as the crisis. For some people who cannot cope, a crisis can lead to suicidal thoughts, attempts, or completions.
Crisis lines play a key role in preventing su***de worldwide. It serves as an important contact point to individuals in emotional or suicidal crisis. As a national su***de prevention strategy of the Department of Health, the National Center for Mental Health (NCMH) established a 24/7 Crisis Hotline. Its creation fulfills the mandate in the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Mental Health Act or RA 11036, which was passed into law last June 20, 2018.
The Crisis Hotline is manned by Crisis Hotline Responders who are trained in identifying and handling different mental health issues and concerns through telephone services.
The NCMH Crisis Hotline Su***de Prevention Strategy embodies the LIVE LIFE approach of the WHO which aims to provide a comprehensive package of su***de prevention interventions. Early Identification is a core intervention in preventing su***de. The 24/7 Crisis Hotline meets this objective of providing rapid crisis identification, assessment, and management of distressed Filipinos who are at risk of committing su***de.
Since its creation last May 2019, it has received more than 7,000 calls (as of June 2020) from different parts of the country and abroad, and attended to the various concerns of individuals in the community. It provides much-needed help for those at risk of committing su***de and serves as a portal to other agencies and mental health professionals. It continuously collaborates and creates linkages with other government agencies and professional organizations to improve the referral of callers to mental health professionals in the country.
