What is the primary focus of mental health promotion programs?

A. Preferring to eat meals while watching TV is a common behavior that is not specifically associated with suicidal ideation. It may simply reflect the adolescent's comfort or routine preferences rather than a sign of continued suicidal intent.
B. Giving away personal belongings, such as a CD collection, can be a sign that the adolescent is making arrangements for their belongings in case of death. This behavior can sometimes suggest that the individual may be planning for their end, which could indicate lingering suicidal thoughts. It's important to explore this behavior further with the adolescent to understand their intentions and state of mind.
C. While avoidance of discussing the suicide attempt may indicate emotional distress or a reluctance to engage, it does not directly point to ongoing suicidal intent. It could also reflect a desire for privacy or difficulty in expressing feelings, rather than a clear indication of suicidal ideation.
D. Adolescents often express a desire to spend more time with peers rather than family, which is a common developmental behavior. This preference alone does not necessarily indicate suicidal intent and is more reflective of typical adolescent social behavior.

A. A physical disease, especially a chronic one, can significantly impact a person's physical and mental well-being, leading to a decline in functional capacity.
B. While crises can be challenging, they are often temporary and do not necessarily lead to a long-term decline in functional capacity.
C. While a support system is crucial for overall well-being, its absence does not always lead to a significant decline in functional capacity. Many people can cope with challenges without a formal support system.
D. While essential for overall health, nutritional deficits typically lead to a gradual decline in functional capacity unless they are severe and prolonged.
