Teen suicide is the intentional taking of one's own life by a teenager. Teenagers are vulnerable to suicide because their minds are still developing and they often make decisions without considering long-term consequences. Warning signs of a suicidal teen include sudden personality changes, loss of interest in activities, mood swings, statements about being a bad person or that it will all be over soon. While females are more likely to attempt suicide, more males actually die by suicide in their attempts. A survey was conducted to understand common misconceptions around teen suicide.
