Also, desperation is the cause of many suicides today. Frustration leads to violence, which leads to suicide due to lack of solutions. Also, the Buddha has shown a noble path to get rid of suffering. That is the Noble Eightfold Path. Good seeing, good thinking, good words, good deeds, good living. Good effort, good consciousness, good concentration are its eight important elements. Also, due to not being able to maintain the mind well, problems arise in social interaction and loss of concentration can also lead to anti-social personality traits according to social psychology.
