Yesterday, 16-year-old Rachel decided to commit suicide-- an all too common increased trend in America as suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15- to 24-year-olds (“Teen Suicide Is Preventable”). Rachel felt like she could not handle her life anymore. Her parents were in the process of getting a divorce, she was being bullied at school, was having trouble succeeding in academics and co-curricular activities, and was recently been diagnosed with depression. So, in a desperate attempt to make all her problems go away, she took several pills and ended her life. Now, what caused Rachel specifically to take this drastic step and end her life? Was it her home life? Her school

Problem: Too many Veterans commit suicide. As of 2014, Veterans have a twenty-one percent higher risk of suicide than U.S. civilian adults. Veterans Affairs [VA], (2016). Fact Sheet Suicide Prevention.

Have you ever been through a tough situation and felt like there was no solution? Many people do and unfortunately many people also solve their solution by ending their life. In fact, every 13 minutes, someone commits suicide in the U.S (http://www.save.org/). Whether your friends or acquaintances, chances are you will know someone who has committed suicide. However, this doesn’t have to be the case. Urban Meyer, current coach of the Ohio State football team, once stated, “Are you going to be the problem or the solution?” An organization known as the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) has decided they will be the solution to suicide.

Suicide is a major problem worldwide; especially for teenagers. Self image plays a big roll in American society today, especially in enabling someone to make a wrong and destructive decision like suicide. Self image and low esteem effect the chances of a teenagers suicide greatly. There are many events that lead up to a young persons suicide, for instance a little problem that seems inescapable which manifests themselves into overwhelming burdens. Detection and prevention are both key for adults and young people to stop suicide from happening.

This past week was focused on Mental Health and Suicide Prevention here at school. Out of the three lectures I could go to the Mental Health Student Presentations. The Presentations were divided up among, what I believe, are the most common topics of mental health. The first topic presented was suicide. This is a touchy topic for me because a little less than a year ago a fellow classmate who I just started talking to committed suicide. It was out of the blue because I did not see any of the warning signs talked about in the presentation. A few warning signs talked about was the person would talk about death, give away personal items, threatened to hurt themselves and/or they would have thoughts of self-harm and helplessness. The thing I found

The basic means to distinguish at-risk youth is to get some information about suicidal contemplations, intent, and risk factors as a part of routine health care. The concern that talking or getting some information about suicide will start suicidal activities or ideation in a child or adolescent is not supported by confirmation [9]. The accompanying danger variables for suicide ought to be incorporated into adolescent health screening: depression, alcohol or substance abuse, history of interpersonal brutality or seeing aggressive behavior at home as a child, showing that one is comfortable with talking about suicide is a critical component of a effective inquiry. Toward this end, the inquiries that are posed ought to be short, to the point, and asked in a non-judgmental way in formatively suitable dialect [10]. Sample questions include: Do you ever consider dying? How often? What do you think happens when you die? Have you ever wished you were dead? Do you ever think the world would be in an ideal situation on the off chance that you were dead? Do you think life would be less

Everything you share it stays online it you will never be able to un-see it. The Internet is a really damaging thing that’s what leads these teens to suicide. There are more deaths not than ever.

The methodology used for this research investigation first consisted of posing a question related to the class texts. After, having a conversation with Mrs. Alcala, discussing my topic, I had decided to do my essay on the two-spirit. Doing my research I had a hard time looking for my information and credible sources, so I changed my topic to teen suicide. Starting my essay with the hook, I was trying to write a false story that I ended up revising about 3 times. For the research online about teen suicide I looked for the statistics of how much suicide has increased over the years, shocking to say it has became normal for teen to suicide now days and an article to support my essay. Doing the link for my first CEL paragraph

A mother finds her 17 year old teenage son hanging from the rafters of their basement. To hear of this occurrence is not rare in society today. Every 90 minutes a teenager in this country commits suicide. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15-24 year olds. The National suicide rate has increased 78% between 1952 and 1992. The rate for 15-19 year olds rose from two per 100,000 to 12.9, more than 600 percent. (Special report, Killing the Pain, Rae Coulli)

As a teenager I have said many times before that I hate my life. I know many people who express hatred for the life that they live. Most of those kids only say it because the one time they didn’t get something they wanted came around. But little do people think before they talk, many people actually do hate their lives and try to end their lives every day. Once every minute someone tries to commit suicide. 60-70 times a day these attempts succeed.

In 2011, James Rodemeyer, a 14 year old junior high school student from Buffalo revealed his bisexuality via the World Wide Web. The weeks following Rodemeyer experienced taunting, name calling, assault and isolation from his peers. Even his close friends refused to sit with him at lunch. Later that year, James Rodemeyer committed suicide.This case is just one of many where an adolescent feels that their is no other solution than to end their life. It is estimated that, 42% of LGBT of youth have experienced bullying, and they are two to three times more likely to attempt suicide than other teens (BullyingStatistics.org, 2016).

Youth Suicide Introduction Suicide is a tragic event. It has a profound personal effect on all associated with the person who died. Families, friends and society as a whole are affected. There is a particular poignancy when the suicide is that of a young person at the threshold of life. Australia has the fifth highest suicide rate per 100 000 persons in the world.

This paper will survey the reasons for the unusually high suicide rates found specifically in South Korea. There are many different factors that contribute to suicide such as depression, certain cultural values, the educational system and more. It will begin with the rates of suicide found in the country versus the average suicide rate in other countries. We will further go in depth to discover how various reasons for depression and cultural values have impacted the youth. It will also describe the rigor and intensity of the educational system in present day Korea and its effects on the youth. It will also continue onto exploring the culture and how that correlates back to the high suicide rates by exploring further into the

Teen suicide in Colorado is at an all time high. It has become one of the biggest social problems affecting all our lives in one way or another. It is a day-to-day experience and everyday news in our society. It is the third leading cause of death within today's youth (Collegian). Along with so many other things in the world that bring tragedy, it can be prevented. Douglas County needs to consider preventing teen suicide by providing better, safer hotlines and resources, learning how to help peers when they are down, and changing society’s unrealistic expectations.
