    Unhappy A Generation Falling Victim to Suicide

    One of my daughter's friends just posted this on FB. A girl in the year below them (15yo or so) commited suicide on Feburary 3rd this year. I have no idea who this girl was but it upset me a lot, thinking of her family and how it could have been my daughter (or anyone really).

    Please read this and maybe share it. Suicide is still such a taboo subject and yet is an epidemic in this country. I see this is an American article, so it must be epidemic there as well..

    Excerpt: "People think hiding it, tucking it away and ignoring it will make it go away. Well, it doesn't ever go away. The families don't stop grieving, the friends don't ever stop wondering what they could've done to help and the questions, hell, the questions never end. So no, tucking it away doesn't help."
