‘63 per cent of urban India has considered suicide since 2010’
A year-long survey conducted in eight major Indian cities has revealed that an incredible 70% of urban Indians (age group 15 to 50 years) have suffered from spells of depression in the past two years, and most of them - 90% - have contemplated suicide in the same period. The online survey conducted on residents of Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Cochin and Hyderabad by Aasra, a suicide helpline, also revealed that a majority of those depressed were women. “The idea behind the survey was to spread awareness on the rising cases of depression in urban India,” said Aasra’s director Jhonson Thomas. One of the most striking find of the survey was that of the 70% found depressed, only a third were willing to seek professional help.
