Aj keď sa naše životy môžu zdať navonok v poriadku, zvnútra môže ísť o svet plný utrpenia smerujúci k rozhodnutiu ukončiť život. Na TEDYou JD Schramm žiada o prelomenie ticha obklopujúceho samovraždy a ľudí snažiacich sa vrátiť do života po tom, čo unikli smrti. Zdroje: http://t.co/wsNrY9C.

Pri pohľade z vonku
00:18
John had everything going for him.
1
3000
3000
Johnovi všetko vychádzalo.
00:21
He had just signed the contract
2
6000
2000
Práve podpísal zmluvu
00:23
to sell his New York apartment
3
8000
2000
predávajúc svoj byt v New Yorku
00:25
at a six-figure profit,
4
10000
2000
s 6 ciferným ziskom,
00:27
and he'd only owned it for five years.
5
12000
3000
pričom ho vlastnil iba 5 rokov.
00:30
The school where he graduated from with his master's
6
15000
2000
Škola, kde promoval,
00:32
had just offered him a teaching appointment,
7
17000
2000
mu ponúkla pozíciu učiteľa,
00:34
which meant not only a salary,
8
19000
2000
čo neznamenalo len plat,
00:36
but benefits for the first time in ages.
9
21000
3000
ale po prvý krát po dlhej dobe aj nejaké tie výhody.
00:40
And yet, despite everything going really well for John,
10
25000
3000
A aj napriek tomu, že všetko výchádzalo v Johnov prospech,
00:43
he was struggling,
11
28000
2000
potýkal sa s problémami
00:45
fighting addiction and a gripping depression.
12
30000
3000
v podobe závislosti a depresie.
00:50
On the night of June 11th, 2003,
13
35000
2000
V noci 11. júna 2003
00:52
he climbed up to the edge
14
37000
2000
vyliezol na okraj
00:54
of the fence on the Manhattan Bridge
15
39000
3000
zábradlia Manhattanského mostu
00:57
and he leaped to the treacherous waters below.
16
42000
4000
a skočil dolu, do zradných vôd.
01:02
Remarkably --
17
47000
2000
Napočudovanie -
01:04
no, miraculously --
18
49000
2000
či zázrakom,
01:06
he lived.
19
51000
3000
prežil.
01:09
The fall shattered his right arm,
20
54000
3000
Pád mu dokaličil pravé rameno,
01:12
broke every rib that he had,
21
57000
2000
zlomil mu všetky jeho rebrá,
01:14
punctured his lung,
22
59000
2000
prepichol mu pľúca
01:16
and he drifted in and out of consciousness
23
61000
2000
a spôsobil, že striedavo strácal vedomie
01:18
as he drifted down the East River,
24
63000
3000
pričom ho unášal prúd East River,
01:21
under the Brooklyn Bridge
25
66000
2000
popod Brooklynský most
01:23
and out into the pathway of the Staten Island Ferry,
26
68000
3000
až ku State Island Ferry,
01:26
where passengers on the ferry
27
71000
2000
kde cestujúci na trajekte
01:28
heard his cries of pain,
28
73000
2000
počujúc jeho krik od bolesti
01:30
contacted the boat's captain
29
75000
2000
skontaktovali kapitána lode,
01:32
who contacted the Coast Guard
30
77000
2000
ktorý skontaktoval pobrežnú stráž,
01:34
who fished him out of the East River
31
79000
2000
ktorá ho nakoniec vylovila z East River
01:36
and took him to Bellevue Hospital.
32
81000
3000
a vzala ho do nemocnice v Bellevue.
01:39
And that's actually where our story begins.
33
84000
3000
Tu sa vlastne začína náš príbeh.
01:42
Because once John committed himself
34
87000
2000
Pretože akonáhle sa John rozhodol,
01:44
to putting his life back together --
35
89000
3000
že si dá svoj život do poriadku,
01:47
first physically, then emotionally,
36
92000
3000
najprv fyzicky, potom citovo,
01:50
and then spiritually --
37
95000
2000
a nakoniec duševne,
01:52
he found that there were very few resources available
38
97000
3000
zistil, že pre človeka, ktorý sa rozhodol ukončiť svoj život takým spôsobom, ako on,
01:55
to someone who has attempted to end their life
39
100000
2000
zistil, že pre človeka, ktorý sa rozhodol ukončiť svoj život takým spôsobom, ako on,
01:57
in the way that he did.
40
102000
3000
je k dispozícií veľmi málo prostriedkov.
02:00
Research shows
41
105000
2000
Výskumy ukazujú,
02:02
that 19 out of 20 people
42
107000
2000
že 19 z 20 ľudí,
02:04
who attempt suicide
43
109000
2000
ktorí sa pokúsia o samovraždu,
02:06
will fail.
44
111000
2000
zlyhajú.
02:09
But the people who fail
45
114000
2000
Ale ľudia, ktorí zlyhajú,
02:11
are 37 times more likely to succeed
46
116000
3000
majú 37-krát väčšiu pravdepodobonosť
02:14
the second time.
47
119000
3000
uspieť druhý krát.
02:17
This truly is
48
122000
2000
Naozaj sa jedná
02:19
an at-risk population
49
124000
2000
o rizikovú skupinu obyvateľstva
02:21
with very few resources to support them.
50
126000
3000
s malým množstvom zdrojov pomoci.
02:24
And what happens
51
129000
2000
A čo sa stane,
02:26
when people try to assemble themselves back into life,
52
131000
3000
keď sa ľudia snažia zaradiť späť do života,
02:29
because of our taboos around suicide,
53
134000
2000
v dôsledku našich predsudkov týkajúcich sa samovrážd,
02:31
we're not sure what to say,
54
136000
2000
nevieme čo povedať,
02:33
and so quite often we say nothing.
55
138000
3000
a tak často nehovoríme nič.
02:36
And that furthers the isolation
56
141000
2000
To predlžuje izoláciu,
02:38
that people like John found themselves in.
57
143000
3000
v ktorej sa ľudia ako John ocitnú.
02:43
I know John's story very well
58
148000
2000
Johnov príbeh poznám veľmi dobre,
02:45
because I'm John.
59
150000
3000
pretože ja som John.
02:49
And this is, today,
60
154000
3000
A toto je dnes prvýkrát
02:52
the first time in any sort of public setting
61
157000
3000
kedy som sa na takomto verejnom podujatí
02:55
I've ever acknowledged
62
160000
2000
priznal k ceste,
02:57
the journey that I have been on.
63
162000
3000
ktorou som prešiel.
03:01
But after having lost a beloved teacher in 2006
64
166000
3000
Ale potom, ako som v roku 2006 stratil obľúbeného učiteľa
03:04
and a good friend last year to suicide,
65
169000
4000
a minulý rok dobrého priateľa, ktorí spáchali samovraždu,
03:08
and sitting last year at TEDActive,
66
173000
3000
a potom, ako som sa minulý rok zúčastnil TEDActive,
03:11
I knew that I needed to step out of my silence
67
176000
3000
som vedel, že potrebujem prekonať svoje mlčanie
03:14
and past my taboos
68
179000
2000
a prelomiť moje tabu,
03:16
to talk about an idea worth spreading --
69
181000
3000
a začať tak rozprávať o myšlienkach hodných šírenia.
03:19
and that is that people
70
184000
2000
A to, že ľudia,
03:21
who have made the difficult choice
71
186000
3000
ktorí urobili ťažké rozhodnutie
03:24
to come back to life
72
189000
2000
vrátiť sa späť do života,
03:26
need more resources and need our help.
73
191000
3000
potrebujú viac zdrojov a potrebujú našu pomoc.
03:30
As the Trevor Project says, it gets better.
74
195000
3000
Ako tvrdí Trevor Project, bude to lepšie.
03:33
It gets way better.
75
198000
3000
Bude to oveľa lepšie.
03:36
And I'm choosing to come out
76
201000
2000
To je dôvod, prečo som sa dnes rozhodol
03:38
of a totally different kind of closet today
77
203000
2000
vystúpiť s niečim iným a
03:40
to encourage you, to urge you,
78
205000
3000
podporiť vás, naliehať na vás,
03:43
that if you are someone
79
208000
2000
že ak ste niekto,
03:45
who has contemplated or attempted suicide,
80
210000
4000
kto sa pokúsil o samovraždu,
03:49
or you know somebody who has,
81
214000
3000
alebo poznáte takéhoto človeka,
03:52
talk about it; get help.
82
217000
3000
porozprávajte sa o tom, nájdite pomoc.
03:55
It's a conversation worth having
83
220000
3000
Je to konverzácia, ktorá stojí za to,
03:58
and an idea worth spreading.
84
223000
3000
a myšlienka ktorá je hodná šírenia.
04:01
Thank you.
85
226000
2000
Ďakujem vám.
04:03
(Applause)
