The problem of suicide has been gripping our
nations teens progressively more and more each
year. This year alone 30,000 people will take
their own lives, of that thirty thousand
approximately 4,000 will be young people between
the ages of 15 and 24.
Four males die for every one female completed
suicide, three females attempt for every male
attempt

11 teens between 15 and 24 take their lives every
day. And the fastest growing age group for
suicide is ages 10-14.

A wonderful realization will be the day you
realize that you are unique in all the world.
There is nothing that is an accident. You are a
special combination for a purpose and dont
let them tell you otherwise, even if they tell
you that purpose is an illusion You are that
combination so that you can do what is
essential for you to do. Dont ever believe
that you have nothing to contribute. The world
is an incredible unfulfilled tapestry, and only
you can fulfill the tiny space that is yours.
Positive re-enforcement is the best way to
overcome yours, or your friends, problems with
suicide and depression.

Very Little is needed to make a happy life. It
is all within yourself - Marcus Aurelius
This year alone, 100,000 people will kill
themselves in the world

With help, the feeling will pass and time will
heal all. That is the time when people effected
by depression need us the most. Reach out to
people as they come out of their darkness, and
guide them into the light.
Listening to people is the best medicine any one
could give any one.
