This is a statement regarding the recent Netflix release, 13 Reasons Why, <\/em>which follows the story of a young girl who dies by suicide.<\/p>\n

The Centre for Suicide Prevention (CSP) is concerned that the Netflix adaptation of Jay Asher\u2019s 13 Reasons Why <\/em>novel does not follow the Canadian Association of Suicide Prevention and the American Association of Suicidology\u2019s media guidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Suicide is complex. A death by suicide is typically brought on by a whole host of factors; almost never is it due to just one, like bullying. Furthermore, even just one positive factor, such as a supportive home environment or even one good friend, can be enough to keep a person who is struggling alive.<\/p>\n

Suicidal people do not kill themselves to seek \u201crevenge\u201d against others who have hurt them. In fact, people in crisis do not want to die at all: they want the pain of living to end. People in suicidal crisis are experiencing such deep psychological pain that they cannot see another way out of their pain except death; given an option, they will choose the option. When people who are thinking of suicide are asked by someone they trust, \u201cAre you thinking of suicide?\u201d they will say yes. They want to live. Dramatic portrayal of a suicide death glamourizes suicide, and may trigger those who are already struggling with suicidal thoughts. Suicide is not glamorous; it is an act carried out in complete and utter desperation as a result of acute suffering.<\/p>\n

Though suicide contagion is rare, it does happen, and especially in instances where suicide is not dealt with in a sensitive, responsible manner, as is set out by the media guidelines<\/a>.\u00a0 CSP urges those who are feeling suicidal to tell someone about their thoughts, and get help. Help is available!<\/p>\n

In Canada, call Kids Help Phone at 1 (800) 668-6868 or visit the website to chat<\/a>.<\/p>\n
