A number of factors could be involved. For one thing, we live in hard times very hard to deal with, and many adolescents (youths) feel the pressures of life with great intensity. Then too humans tend to harbor deeply negative thoughts about themselves and the world around them. Sometimes this is because of mistreatment. In other cases, a medical issue may be involved. Significantly, in one country it is estimated that than 90 percent of those who did take their life were suffering from some type of mental illness. Though it is important to note, however that most people especially youths who have a mental illness do not commit suicide.
Of course, no one is immune to adversity. Indeed, youths can be profoundly affected by negative events such as the following:
¤ the death of a relative, friend, or pet
¤ family conflict
¤ the breakup of a romance
¤ mistreatment including physical or sexual abuse.
Admittedly, sooner or later virtually all youths encounter one or more of the situations listed above. Why are some youths better equipped to withstand the storm than others? Experts say the people especially youths who want to give up and take their own lives feel utterly helpless and hopeless. In other words such ones see no light on the horizon. They don't really want to die; they just want to end the pain.
