T<\/span>he questions I keep asking myself are \u2013 Why was no one there? Did people around him give up or is there just no hope left sometimes? <\/em>A month into the United Nations declaring us amidst a Covid-19 pandemic<\/a> and a few weeks into the lockdown<\/a>, I learnt something devastating. An old classmate had died by suicide earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we first went under lockdown, I began calling my friends to check in on them. Some of their situations were far from ideal and worsening in quarantine. Parallelly, the news started becoming a whirlpool of death tolls and suffering. As death shifted from a possibility to a probability, my calls started extending from friends to old friends to colleagues. That\u2019s when I heard about my classmate\u2019s suicide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My friend struggled to recall our classmate\u2019s name while telling me of his death. Neither of us was close to him in college<\/a>. But I\u2019d always been drawn to him in a way that those of us familiar with mental illness<\/a> are to our clan.

I scrolled through his Facebook timeline looking for a trail that would lead me to his decision.<\/blockquote>
\u201cYou may have heard, I dropped out of college too,\u201d he inboxed me early in 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGood for you!\u201d I replied. \u201cYou know I play on that team.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was one of our last conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We both spent a good portion of our time in college battling the urge to end it all. Neither of us completed the course. While hopelessness is something that continues to visit and leave my life, there must have come a point for him where it would not leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe was always depressed<\/a>,\u201d another friend said to me when I asked if she knew what his tipping point was. \u201cI\u2019m not sure if he was medically diagnosed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I scrolled through his Facebook timeline looking for a trail that would lead me to his decision. His last few posts were asking people to pay attention to those with anxiety and depression, requesting them to show up for those in their lives who were suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I come from a bloodline of mental illnesses and a family history of suicide. I\u2019ve been diagnosed with multiple mental health disorders, many of which leave me in utter despair from time to time. I\u2019ve always come out the other end with a decorative badge of honour \u2013 I survived, here is how and this is why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the news about my classmate\u2019s suicide made the encroaching darkness of this pandemic more opaque. The answers I held so dearly seemed like nothing but survivorship bias. When the threats of loss and devastation loomed so tangibly above me, I knew I needed more.

Death shifted from a possibility to a probability.<\/blockquote>
I found it hard to sleep in the days that followed. I did everything to silence my thoughts \u2013 meditate<\/a>, journal, not engage with the voices \u2013 but they only got worse. One night, I sat up at 3 am and started to sob violently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to pinpoint a reason, the specific knot that undid me, that I could tie back to get myself together. But I was unable to find it amidst the hurricane I was caught up in. I needed to speak to someone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought of all the friends I\u2019d just spent weeks calling. I knew they loved me but I wasn\u2019t certain who would be able to watch me come undone in the middle of the night during a pandemic. I thought of my classmate who must have, in a moment like this, retreated into himself and given up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a part of me almost relieved that he didn\u2019t make it to where we are at. I am not certain how his impossible concoction of profound empathy<\/a>, acute distress, and piercing insight would have handled this mess. It is a mess, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People are stuck at home with abusive partners, parents, and minds. Calls to suicide hotlines in the US have increased<\/a> by 800 per cent. My own illnesses were triggered by the constant stories of suffering and the news of my classmate\u2019s suicide. And there was nowhere to be but my mind.

People are stuck at home with abusive partners, parents, and minds.<\/blockquote>
Over the next few days, I fell into a reverie of quarantine activities \u2013 baking, cooking, and working until I had no energy left to think. But there wasn\u2019t enough busyness that could drown the bloody warcry in my mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I started calling my people, hoping to tell them what the darkness of that night had sucked me into. But each time I tried, I\u2019d start sobbing again. The time of the day didn\u2019t matter, pain has solid vitals even at 3 pm in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people were afraid to see me in so much pain. I felt guilty about alarming them. So I let them make small talk, assured them I had a therapist<\/a> appointment in tow, and a few people on speed dial I could speak to. I said that I was not suicidal, praying that if I chanted it enough, I\u2019d convince myself it was true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It made me wonder if this is why people stop reaching out. Do we convince ourselves that we aren\u2019t doing so bad because people who love us can’t look our pain in the eye? Does the guilt of needing what they can\u2019t give strip us of our right to feel what we do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two paths vivified in my mind like a scene from Robert Frost\u2019s most famous poem. My classmate walked one way and I walked the other. I wanted to drag him back from the path he took and tell him something that would change his decision. But when I looked at the image for too long, I found myself frightened if there\u2019d be a day when like him, I think \u2013 maybe for some of us, there isn\u2019t enough hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearly 8,00,000 people globally die of suicide<\/a> each year. We\u2019re losing one person to this every 40 seconds. While mental illnesses can be the cause of such potent pain, so can common human conditions such as loneliness<\/a>, heartbreak<\/a>, and stress<\/a>.

Two paths vivified in my mind like a scene from Robert Frost\u2019s most famous poem.<\/blockquote>
We cannot predict when someone will withdraw into themselves so we have to stop gate-keeping pain for only the suicidal or doctor-attested. We have to learn to lock eyes with people\u2019s darkness without a vexing urge to look away so those we love can show us they are hurting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I realised that we need access to each other\u2019s hope and strength. So I decided to not stop reaching out. Eventually, I found a couple of friends who weren\u2019t intimidated by my suffering and were willing to hold me as I came apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I woke up again at 3 am a few nights ago and wrote my classmate a letter. And apologised for not looking at his suffering long enough. For assuming he was someone else\u2019s responsibility, that someone must be checking on him. I promised him that I\u2019d always hold people whose truth I can see and never look away from their distress.

I realised that we need access to each other\u2019s hope and strength.<\/blockquote>
The worst of this pandemic may soon be over but everything we\u2019ve experienced here will change us forever. Mental health professionals say that there\u2019s a mental health pandemic<\/a> right around the corner. How do we shoulder this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It isn\u2019t one individual\u2019s responsibility to keep another alive but it is our collective duty to hold each other up, billions of us latticed in a safety net that no one can slip through. Let\u2019s ask ourselves what we can give, who we can show up for and how we can hold those we love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most importantly, let\u2019s give ourselves permission to reach out as many times as it takes because we are all worthy of being saved. Even if some of the best ones couldn\u2019t find it, I want to believe that there is enough hope around to make us all pick the choice to stay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
