SUICIDE IS A TEENAGE EPIDEMIC

I just copied a part of an article I found on the internet.

The statistics show that suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death among those 15 to 25 years of age and the 6th leading cause of death among those 5 to 14 years of age.
Can you believe that 5 year olds are killing themselves! Are these isolated incidents? No,its estimated that 500,000 teenagers try to kill themselves every year, and about 5000 succeed. That's right up there with cancer and homicide.

Studies have shown that as many as fifty percent of the general public have seriously considered suicide as a solution to our problems.
The danger is when a person thinks about suicide while they have depression - when thoughts have a hard time escaping the entrapment of a clouded brain.




Depression -> Suicide <- Bullying
