Yellow September in 2021<\/h2>\n

Yellow September is known as \"Suicide Prevention Awareness Month\" and the theme for this year's campaign is \"Acting saves lives\".<\/span><\/p>\n

More than talking, it is essential to take effective action to prevent cases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Caring for mental health, recognizing symptoms and seek treatment<\/a> are actions that make all the difference.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2021, specifically, the campaign arrives in a unique context, as it is almost two years into the pandemic. COVID-19<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

And a substantial body of scientific evidence has shown that loneliness and social isolation increase the risk of premature mortality in a way that is comparable to other risk factors, such as hypertension, smoking and obesity, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n

The impact of the pandemic on mental health<\/h2>\n

With isolation, the population's mental health has become more fragile. Many lives have been lost and economic uncertainty has increased. As a result, we are seeing more and more reports of anxiety, depression, Burnout Syndrome and many other mental disorders.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the pandemic, the potential for deterioration in mental health or recurrence of severe psychiatric symptoms became high. Therefore, focusing on the needs of people with mental disorders, or whose mental health is vulnerable, became paramount to saving lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

Suicide prevention in the \"Covid era\" requires addressing not only risk factors accentuated by the social, economic and even grief-related consequences of the worst viral outbreak in 100 years, but also elements that were already present without the pandemic, including mental disorders.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dozens of studies using psychological autopsy methods have shown that more than 90% of suicide cases are associated with mental complications. For this reason, one of the most important factors in effectively saving lives is treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n

So this is yet another moment in history when suicide prevention must be prioritized as a serious public health problem. The identification and treatment of mental disorders by the psychiatrist<\/a> are among the main factors in inhibiting cases. Together with psychological counseling, psychiatric treatment helps to save lives.<\/span><\/p>\n
