RUSSIA Woman diagnosed with schizophrenia, who suffered from frequent suicidal thoughts, was prescribed Azapin. This is a very strong medication with the active ingredient clozapine, which is used to treat schizophrenia in patients who do not respond to other treatments. It belongs to the category of atypical antipsychotics.
However, the patient received a medical prescription for more pills than should have been prescribed. She paradoxically used the anti-suicide pills to commit suicide by ingesting more than 90 of them at once.
If you’re thinking about suicide, please stop and recognize that your pain is not permanent, but this step would be. It may feel like there’s no other way, but there is hope, even if it’s hard to see right now. Your feelings are temporary, and with help, they can pass.
Talking about what you're going through might feel difficult, but it’s the first step toward healing. Don’t turn away from the people who want to support you. Life can offer more than what you're feeling right now, and the pain doesn't have to last forever. You deserve help, and it’s available.
If you need immediate help, please contact a helpline.
