However, there are some common reasons someone might try to take their own life, such as: the loss of a loved one or relationship that a person relied heavily upon, the loss of an important job or career prospect or serious financial difficulty.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few examples and even though, to the person at the time there seems no other option, it is important that people know that there is always another way and all problems can be overcome with a little nudge in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p>Men and boys are seemingly more susceptible to taking their own lives for a number of reason according to an award-winning charity, C.A.L.M.

This 22-year-old has had a longstanding battle with depression as well as a turbulent family life which led to a failed suicide attempt in 2012. He said \u201cI felt like everyone would be better off without me, I was sick of burdening everyone around me with my shit so thought it would be better if I wasn\u2019t here anymore\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He went on to say \u201cI was so angry that my friends found me and called 999, the one time I\u2019d been brave enough to do it, it had all been taken away and they thought they\u2019d saved me. Now I\u2019m so glad I had people around me who cared and saved my life. I just wish it hadn\u2019t taken something so extreme for me to realise I\u2019m not alone\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Most people that are suicidal don\u2019t want to die, they just want to escape an unbearable situation when all other options seem impossible. C.A.L.M. is committed to helping those who find themselves in such a situation and are keen to get across that \u201cthere is always another way\u201d. This support is offered in multiple forms but the most interactive are the helpline and the webchat services.<\/p>\n<p>.embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-container\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A C.A.L.M. spokesperson said \u201cwe use young men\u2019s peers, their voices and interests to reach them\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She went on to say, \u201cthere is a cultural barrier preventing men from seeking help. Men are expected to always be in control and failure to be as such is often perceived as weakness and less masculine\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>C.A.L.M. says they campaign for all men, not just \u2018service-users\u2019, stating that \u201ceveryone can hit a crisis at some point in their lives and so we could all benefit from some support when things get tough\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>So if you find yourself in a position where you think there is no other alternative, pick up a phone and speak to someone or look at the stories of other young people online and how they came through it because there is always another way.<\/p>\n<p>If, however you find yourself in a situation where you are worried for a friends wellbeing there are things you can do to help too.<\/p>\n<p>Samaritans Cymru have launched a campaign called SHUSH, 5 ways to become a better listener.
