Here is my contribution in such an imminent situation for you to report a bit of the death rates by suicide and some symptoms so that you are alert it is never too late to save a life
Suicide is the third most frequent cause of death for young people between 15 and 24 years of age, and the sixth cause of death for those between 5 to 14 years old.
Adolescents experience strong feelings of stress, confusion, self-doubt, pressure to achieve success, financial uncertainty and other fears as they grow up. For some teenagers, divorce, the formation of a new family with step-parents and step-siblings, or moving to other new communities can disturb them and intensify their doubts about themselves. For some adolescents, suicide appears to be a solution to their problems and stress.
Depression and suicidal tendencies are mental disorders that can be treated.
Signs that may indicate that the adolescent is contemplating suicide:
-changes in sleeping and eating habits
-withdrawal of friends, family or usual activities
-violent acts, rebellious behavior or running away from home
-use of drugs or alcoholic beverages
-unusual abandonment in his personal appearance
-pronounced changes in his personality
-persistent boredom, difficulty concentrating, or deterioration in the quality of school work
-frequent complaints of physical symptoms, such as: headaches, stomach aches and fatigue, which are usually -----associated with the young person's emotional state
-loss of interest in their hobbies and other distractions
-little tolerance for praise or awards
-A teenager who is contemplating suicide may also:
complain about being a bad person or feeling abominable
-throw hints like: I will not continue to be a problem, I do not care, why bother or I will not see you again
-put your affairs in order, for example: give away your favorite possessions, clean your room, throw away papers or --important things, etc.
-Getting very happy after a period of depression
-have symptoms of sycosis (hallucinations or strange thoughts)
If one or more of these signs occurs, parents need to talk with their child about their concerns and should seek professional help when their concern persists. With the moral support of the family and with professional treatment, children and adolescents with suicidal tendencies can recover and return to a healthier path of development.
