Teen suicide warning signs/ causes?

Question

what are the warning signs of teen suicide ?
wat can trigger it?
what can schools do? if anything...
what can be done to prevent it ?

Answer 1

signs: depression. thanking about death. creating a will. and occasionally, very happy people. I knew a guy a few years back, he was very happy. did lots of impulsive things and such, I think he lived all there is to experience in life in just 17 years. He took his dad's Glock, and shot himself in the head at a high school bathroom. no signs, none whatsoever.

triggers: hopelessness. stuck in a rut for months, even years, you are so off the right track there's no hope of getting back on. also other people not believing in your states of suicide.

schools: provide psychological therapy. they're hte ones with money, not everyone gots $100,000 for treatment.

prevention: therapy & life going the way of our desires. to fight suicide & depression means to fulfill our desires. obviously that's not possible for everyone, so the best treatment is therapy. usually the government foots the bill so its mostly available to everyone.

Answer 2

Warning: watching suicide, violence movies...Staying alone, Not communicating, cutting wrestle or any other part in body, crying, feeling depressed/ fed up with life all the time, dealing with hate issues.

Schools can help avoiding teen suicide by making anti-bullying clubs/groups...or psychology desk, where a doctor talks to teenagers and try to prevent who is sane, an who has suicidal thoughts.

Answer 3

Abe has some very good points.



Warnings: being alone all the time, being tired all the time, giving things away, acting out, and just plain being depressed

Teachers can notice changes in students and tell parents but then it's out of their hands.

Prevention: having friends, hanging out with family, having stuff to do, being happy, all kinds of things.

Answer 5

Low self-esteem, hopelessness/helplessness, stuff like that. Bad break-ups, abusive families, I would assume.
