WARNING: TEEN SUICIDE

 

Suicide is one of the leading reasons for deaths in teens or young adults. It's become such a punishment for teenagers. People have worried and gravely misinterpreted mental illness. Shrouded in superstition, it has prevented the victims from seeking guidance. And because mental illness usually strikes when teens are exploring their world, it can be challenging to recognize.

Researchers have made enormous discoveries in recognizing the signs of mental illness. Almost all studies recommend a natural or physical cause. Victims can be successfully managed by medication and psychotherapy.

With the help and assistance of the family, teens can be admitted into a treatment facility. They can be examined for many possible physical and emotional cause of their illness and interviewed by psychiatrist or psychologist.

Dangerous mask! 

How had we missed all the warning signs? The truth is that sometimes the symptoms are so much a part of the person's behavior that often regarded as natural.

Teens who suffer from depression often attempt suicide after enduring defeat or stressful occurrence. Many of them talk about suicide, death, or the desire to be in a "safer place." Some make unsuccessful struggles that are ignored as cries for attention. Only rarely are these attempts perceived as a sign of hopelessness and taken seriously.

Sometimes, parents, teachers or doctors must initiate the conversations so that teens will feel secure enough to speak about their emotional, and physical pain.

The American Psychologist Association advises that teens should be asked outright how they feel and if they have ever thought about harming themselves. Other can explore the teen's opinions about friends and school.
