Teenage suicide is intentionally killing oneself, often due to mental disorders like depression. It is the third leading cause of death among those ages 15-24 and the symptoms include feelings of worthlessness, misery, and loneliness. Bullying, family problems, and stress can potentially cause suicidal thoughts in teenagers.

10. “Your life will stop, our hearts will break and what will
