The Real Academia Española<\/a> or RAE (Royal Spanish Academy) is an institution that catalogues language, describes the meanings of words and, in general, is attentive to the changes that language itself may undergo. It is therefore an entity that has the power to set the standard for something as important as what we use to express ourselves, communicate and define things to give them a form of existence. According to the RAE, the word prevention has the following meanings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prevention<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From the Latin praeventio, -ōnis.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. f. The action and effect of preventing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. f. Preparation and provision made in advance to avoid a risk or to execute something.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    However, when searching for the concept postvention, the RAE gives the following information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Note: The word postvention <\/strong>is not in the dictionary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that is why, although the word postvention does not have institutional recognition, it exists, because postvention exists. What happens after prevention?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Amapola is a young woman who, during the pandemic, had to begin her grieving process for the death by suicide of her sister at the end of November 2019. She spreads the word on Instagram (@asi_canta_el_amaranto<\/a>) where she spreads awareness of the concept, and through her own story helps survivors (people close to the deceased loved one) to find networks of support and understanding. “Postvention, in simple terms, is the prevention of people affected by a death by suicide. It consists of therapeutic, organisational, and educational activities with the aim of reducing the negative consequences of a death by suicide (emotional stress, symptoms associated with trauma, depression, etc.), lowering the risk of death of the so-called ‘survivors’ and allowing a healthy elaboration of the mourning process,” explains Amapola. Regarding survivors, the young woman stresses that this concept involves not only family members or those close to them who have lost a loved one, but all those who feel negatively impacted by the death and adds that some research suggests that for every suicide there are around 135 survivors who will suffer that loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
