abstract="Suicide occurs when the present & the future is seen bleak and negative. Suicidal people are preoccupied with their problems, lose perspective and see suicide as an effective solution to their difficulties. &quot;Suicide is not a disease&quot;. &quot;Suicide is the act of taking one's own life on purpose. &quot;The man who kills himself is through with life; he has literally died psychologically before he kills his body.&quot; Society exists within the minds of the individuals who exist within society, and when individuals interact the idea of society becomes an ever-changing &quot;whole&quot; product of this interaction. This helps relate sociology and psychology, and also gives insight into the cause of suicide which is often termed &quot;tunnel vision&quot;. Because people internalize all thoughts, emotions, interpretations of society, etc., and because these forces, external and internal, strongly act upon them, they feel there is no way to escape in a conscious, or even semi-conscious, state.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
