Teen Suicide PSA

mmmhmm... you can go fuck yourself in the anus. Unless, of course, you're too young to understand what fuck and anus mean. Therefore, go swallow some of the things in bottles beneath the kitchen sink. I promise it won't hurt.

You can't even spell out entire words, much less abbreviate them correctly. Who in their right mind would take you seriously? Go back to the first grade, then proceed to have your genitalia removed with a dull and/or rusty knife. Scratch that, dull AND rusty.

The problem is that EVERY adolescent shows at least a few of the symptoms in the list in the end. Also -my personal observation- even knowing that a person is suicidal and acting to prevent accordingly, will often not stop them from trying anyway. You can't lock people up for depression, or low school results. Guess it's always going to be a difficult subject, with uncertain outcomings. Parents and spouses should indeed be aware of symptoms, but for the rest..just pray it won't happen.

The symptoms alone don't cause alarm, they're almost always normal. But together they should send up a flag. You can't always prevent a suicide, but you can always help them understand that these problems in their life are only temporary, suicide is a permanent answer to a temp. problem.

I think we agree.

However, my personal experience with the subject is that 'helping them understand' can be quite an overstatement with depressed of confused youngsters. Of course, one should do what one can.

Untitled - Simple Plan

My teacher cried a little after the presentation, he agreed with the stats as he had a friend commit suicide less than an hour after he had been with him.
