Teenage Suicide in the United States
Suicide. You've heard those hushed whispers about it, you've read about it, you've watched it on the news or movies, you might have even thought or attempted it. There is no end to the supply of suicide stories floating around. Though every suicide story is sad, daunting, and unique, choosing just one to mention would be a disgrace, shame, and disrespect to every other suicide completed. Any person's life can be described as a book. There is a beginning, middle, and an end. For some, the beginning and middle are too sad and complex to deal with that they no longer wish to continue reading the book. So they close the book for eternity, and never reach the end of what could have been a wonderful ending. This is the simple complexity of suicide. It is killing oneself to escape from unhappiness. However, that closing of a book is even more horrific when it involves a teenager, for their life has barely just begun. They have so many pages in their books to turn with their young hands.
