†PREVENTING★TEEN☆SUICIDE!†

If you know somebody who is at risk of committing suicide, don't worry here are some suggestions to help you prevent that from happening. And it IS preventable.

Talk to the person, and ask "What would we do without you?" Try to convince the person not to do it! Ask them what's on their mind, and talk about it together. Talking about it helps way more than you think! If they're any problems in that person's life, think of a plan on how they can concur it together, NOT with suicide. Talk about how bad their family/friends will miss them. Be sure to be gentle when speaking with a mildly depressed or suicidal person, and don't be harsh. Make sure the person knows that you want to help, and that they have choices. Even consider therapy, which helps a lot of teens express their feelings. It's not too late to save a life from teen suicide.
