, and depression.

.
Mistakes
Another reason why people commit suicide is because
they have done mistakes in their life and they regret it.
And they know that they cannot do anything to fix it
so they are feeling regretful of it and feel that their
only way to fix their problem is to commit suicide.
Sexual Abuse
The last but not least reason why people kill themselves
is because of sexual abuse. They are being abused and
are scared to tell people so they feel like they have too
take matters in their own hands. Also because they get
raped.
How they kill themselves
There are lots of ways to commit suicide. But the most
common way they commit suicide is by overdosing on
drugs, cutting themselves and last but no least
hanging themselves.
Drugs.
One way they kill themselves is by overdosing on
drugs. They either take prescription drugs. And or
illegal drugs.

cut themselves.

Teenage Suicide

Bullying is one of the most common suicide for
teenagers because they don’t really have trust in a lot
of people so they feel like they cant go and tell them
about what’s going on.
Love hurts

Family trouble

love them.
Prevention
We can do so much to prevent. One way to prevent
people from comiting suicide is them seeing a

Conclusion
What I learned from this project is that lots of people
go threw so much pain and struggles and they feel like
they’re not needed in this world. So that causes them
to kill themselves. I also learned that lots of teens
don’t know how to deal with their stress or get help.
