Though it is a tough topic to discuss, it is a very important one for teens and parents to be educated about, and that topic is teen suicide. We want to provide up dated information and resources so we can treat it and hopefully prevent it . In this episode, you will learn about:
- What suicidality is. How is this different from self-harm?
- According to the National Center of Health Statistics most recent data, suicide ranks as the 2nd leading cause of death among 15-34-year-olds. Is it a true desire to die? A means to escape pain or apathy?
- What are some of the risk factors and signs of suicidality that family, friends, teachers, etc. can be aware of?
- Does social media play a role in society’s understanding of suicidality?
- How can kids/teens who are aware that their friend has been struggling with suicidal thoughts often don’t know what they can do to help or support their friend?
